CHALLENGE | 45 Minute Chopper featuring Joe Maynard and Steven Bryan

[@Stryker_Cade]

Joe is such good people! Miss hanging with you grinding steel until 3am. Great times!

[@nickstoebe2226]

I've been subscribed for a couple months and right when I was about to give up on knife making it was what you say and how you say it that made me push through my slump of defeat. I've had more progress just from listening to what you say then I have from everything else combined. I'm still an amateur at best but I am trying to make enough money to join the ABS and like you to be the ABS master smith that I submit my knife to for the journeyman test. If you don't get too old in the next 3 years. I appreciate what you do and how you do it

[@robertkoontz7865]

Jason makes a chopper, Strangly enough it looks like a Kukri, A hunter, looks like a Kukri, A bushcraft, looks like a Kukri, A fighter, Yep, looks like a Kukri. Just Joshin ya. Always fun to watch and learn. Thanks; Bob K.

[@TigersEyeDesigns]

I love the challenges. I get back from deployment in July and plan on ramping up my forging. Have some more challenges that I can work on when I get back.

[@loganprice8998]

Saving up for a class later this year. Live in Washington but have loads of family in Tennessee. True art can't wait to learn!

[@natewesselink]

Love seeing these vids, they just keep adding fuel to my passion of knifemaking and learning how to forge

[@xBeanWater]

I always enjoy your videos. I am going to start blade smithing soon. All I have left to get is a forge. Watching your videos have taught me a lot. From techniques to types of steel. I can't wait to start making blades. It's going to be an experience for sure.

[@HeavyForge]

Awesome!!!! I’d love to forge in that shop!🔥⚒💪🏻

[@johnchristopherrobert1839]

Really enjoyed your build

[@davidphillips185]

Dang, that looked like fun!

[@zaneamberbeard135]

Loving it! I'm hoping to something similar with my cousin in a couple weeks. I always enjoy watching guys having fun making a blade.

[@reorg]

A 45 min chopper in 22 min ...now that's good

[@devildog37]

Excellent challenge thanks for the fun

[@michaelflores3468]

Jason you should be in the forged in fire beat the judges season. I love your works man, from choosing the materials to be used all the way up to the finished product.

[@steveshoemaker6347]

l enjoyed it....The whole 9 yards....Thanks very much...!

[@livelikekings8968]

If I could leave the country I’d be booking a class with Jason straight away. Damn lockdowns here in Australia keep us stuck one spot. Thank god I have two forges and friends. 😂💪🏼⚒ love your work Jason!!

[@daltybell]

Thank you!!

[@rodrigo24824]

Nice Job guys!

[@kimsutton2268]

I remember that challenge it was interesting

[@BamaDanKnives]

Love the videos!!! Thanks!

[@thefathomsofforteana6624]

Another great vid

[@billwoehl3051]

Lol, all the smack talk "why don't you do this?" "Why you melting your steel?" 👍🤣😜😁

[@KevinFirst86]

You guys are nutty, and maybe a little squirrelly at times.. but it makes it so much fun to watch. Thanks!

[@gundanium3126]

say Jason...have you ever done the traditional Hot water poured from a teapot edge quench on a kukuri? quenching methods are one of the things that fascinate me and I have been wanting to try this however I do not have the ability to do an edge quench at this time...and my teapot broke. keep up the great content.

[@FoxTCG]

Tbh I’ve seen what Jason can do (not everything obviously) but I was more interested in what joe was doing the whole video. It was pretty neat to see how little material is needed and what you can get out of it

[@samgouff7943]

Nice, I just forged a chopper in your style and it took wayyyy longer then 45 minutes haha

[@fnafplayer6447]

Jason I miss you on forged in fire! You were a nicer critic than J Nelson lol

[@brandonfitts1935]

Awesome video

[@sirtblairjr]

Hey J, lolhaha that's Kool.. knife award goes too😆??? Kool

[@rc246]

I hope you'll join on the Beat The Judges season of Forged in Fire..

[@eetukuru787]

He has said that he won't go back on the show, as it gives a false impression to people about bladesmithing.

[@clairestasse7306]

Very fun.

[@dragonwaterforge]

Awsome man

[@robvanza]

I'm just north of Montana, only problem it's in another continent otherwise I'd be there already!

[@robertharvey4098]

Awesome 😎

[@joelpa4638]

ALL OF THE BLADES ARE WICKED FRICKEN BAD ASS CRAZY COOL I JUST PURCHEST MY FIRST 5BURNER PROPAIN FORGE AND I REALY REALY WANT. TO F0RGE SOME 1000-1200 LAYER DAMASKIS STEEL.TO DO A A.T.C BLADE.🤯🤯🤯👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@fizzix4]

Without using Big Blu, how many heats would it take to forge your tip? Trying to become more effective with my forging.

[@JasonKnightMS]

John Myrick one heat with or without the Big Blu

[@fizzix4]

Jason Knight got a long way to go!!! Thanks

[@chaceanderson9131]

@jason knight I feel like my man card was just revoked! Lol

[@unclebrad9259]

@@JasonKnightMS what color do you stop at?

[@fn45tacticalsuppressed11]

Big knives rock, little knives 🐓

[@nathandunning7150]

Please Forge a leaf spring chopper by hand, so we can see if 3 hours is a good effort. I've got Power Hammer Envy.

[@Andy-hb1pf]

"Looks like yours is only 3.5 inches." Story of my life....

[@willgara6351]

Nah ma don’t make that’s what she said jokes, but incredible vid brother!!

[@GodseyKnives]

Dont think you can do it ? what better reason to try to? good stuff

[@berlinetta350]

Is everyone using a lilie hammer?

[@OriginalMomo]

Step 1 - “just the tip”.... 🤦🏼‍♂️😂🤷‍♂️

[@robertharvey4098]

You should host a 4 hour challenge with prior students

[@thimitri1]

Hey Jason.. I don't think you're swingin that hammer right!!!! 🤪

[@billwoehl3051]

To be fair, each should have their own power hammer and anvils, the sharing of equipment kinda hampers the work in a time limited challenge.

[@NagelHausForge]

Question for the group: do suspenders make you a better bladesmith? 😂😂😂

[@aaronwaderides7209]

Let’s see your bike Collection you said you had one ?

[@spikersodosex3611]

My name is germaine I wanted some insight on the knife that I am make.

[@augustonthefly]

First it's kilts now 80s mom jeans and suspenders?

[@matfry2310]

Lol “pew pew pew……. It’s a choppa!” It’s a 22

[@luissimoesfacascustom]

🤘👍

[@tenminutetokyo2643]

DOOD!

[@olejohnson4194]

You guys forgot to quench your blades and that can only mean one thing

[@darreldavid4653]

so you can't even say Forged in Fire? for demonetization reasons?

[@johnbarnett513]

What the hell Jason! You thanked everyone there even the camera guy. But for me you say nothing noda work my way. I wasn't going to say anything until you disrespected me with no thanks John of any kind. Why are you using a one-way lefthanded hammer in your right hand? And as far as a

[@johnbarnett513]

Anvil a trip to Harbor Freight may help you out. They have a blue one to match Big Blue and it dose wonders when struck with one-way left handed hammers. John B

[@johnbarnett513]

I hope to see a shout out to John B in your next video. You are welcome for the anvil advice.

[@TristanChaika]

I don’t know, Jason, that handle looks pretty thick. I think you need a little more practice. You’ll get the hang of it one of these days.
