Damascus steel from an old chainsaw chain.

I make a blade by forging from an old chain from a "Druzhba" chainsaw (Damascus steel from a chain).
Tea: Mate.
www.amazon.com/shop/shurap
My life youtube channel: / cossackforge
On my patreon page, I began to explain the processes and secrets of my work. Topics already covered:
1. Why do I add pepper to container Damascus steel.
2. What do I sprinkle? Flux and its composition.
3. How do I remove the container from the workpiece (container Damascus steel).
4. Why am I drilling a hole in a container.
5. Why do I sweep away the dross from the anvil with my hand.
6. Why do I first forge some blanks on a tree.
7. In what and why do I soak the blank before forging.
8. In which granules do I place the workpiece after forging.
9. What kind of white powder do I pour into the container.
10. In what liquid do I develop the pattern on the blade.

Ah! Glowing metal has so much familiarity to me. I grew up with this. My grandfather was a blacksmith and we still had the forge for a coal fire. Although my father was a mechanic and did a lot of locksmith work, putting shovels on handles, putting rivets through it, welding and stuff, also sometimes he still forged something. I admire this craft and the level of competence this man has. I should have learnt this...
