Can I Forge A Knife From Fishhooks?!

[@synicyst9925]

I like the way you split and forged the tang

[@JPsBladeworks]

Thanks

[@jeffreymiller9706]

Definitely my 2nd favorite Damascus...but I still love rain drop the best. Well done and THANK YOU for sharing with a new Smith like myself.

Brother u out did yourself with this one i love the fish hook project it one of my favorites but u killed it with this one thanks for sharing it with u

[@JPsBladeworks]

Thank you for taking time and watching

[@D33Lux]

Would be nice to see a thicker handle. Excellent work!

[@jcubetube3778]

You learned me something new…I never thought to forge the handle after cutting it like that! Looks good brotha! 🔪❤️

[@JPsBladeworks]

Yea it works nicely when everything is welded well. I wouldnt recommend it on copper layered knives though.

[@TheOrklord]

That looks great!!! Well done!!

[@JPsBladeworks]

Thanks

[@scottstrong1989]

Thats the coolest fish hook pattern I've ever seen. Nice smithing work on the tang, I was wondering what you were doing.

[@JPsBladeworks]

Ive seen it done on videos online where they cut it like that and forge out the tang. Thought id give it a try.

[@darrengolding4083]

That is a cool pattern you got from the fish hooks .. You do amazing work each time and thanks for sharing them..

[@JPsBladeworks]

[@richerworldproductions]

great stuff!! I just made my VERY first Canister damascus, and it is a fish hook as well. It actually worked out. Keep up the great work

Where can you buy a press like yours

[@JPsBladeworks]

I made my press. There are companies out there that make great presses. Check out coal iron forge they have some nice ones.

[@RomanRodin-bd2ml]

Кайф❤

[@mtnbkr8480]

Great looking knife 👍 But I didn't see if you made a vent hole in the canister before heating it. Especially when sealing the can under pressure the way you did. I would hate to see it pop on you in the press. Safety first.

[@JPsBladeworks]

I dont tend to do the vent hole. I just leave a small area of the lid unwelded and that tends to let the gases out.

[@user-ko3vg7fc7o]

Looks great! Sweet patern! Just a question, do ya think ya may have left the tang a bit skinny? I cant tell on video how wide it is. Just wondering

[@JPsBladeworks]

I agree. Once you grind it off there is no putting it back on. Its under an 1/8 thick im pretty sure. Hopefully its enough. As long as i dont do too heavy chopping with it.

[@user-ko3vg7fc7o]

@@JPsBladeworks you could always weld more on. The tang doesnt need to be hard

[@RVsbladesnthangs]

Looks cool man... Are you aware that you have your hand up in the air while you're talking to the camera? Taledaga Nights 😂

[@JPsBladeworks]

Yea i move my hands a lot 🤣

[@adelalnaser9764]

سلام نهارك سعيد .. ماهی المادة التي قمست النصل فيها حتى اتضحت الألوان

[@kevinstaskivige5214]

Doesn't it piss you off when the anvil moves so easy? I can't stand that with mine

[@kevinstaskivige5214]

Nice work though

[@JPsBladeworks]

Yea it likes do dance around a lot. I just learned to live with it. One day ill have a 400lb that doesnt want to move. One day 😅

[@николайсвирский-ь2т]

Здоровья вам с Донбасса

[@JPsBladeworks]

Thank you

[@darrell840]

My god that noise if the press is annoying af
