Damascus Steel Japanese Tanto from Chainsaw Chain

[@tomahoks]

Thank you for not milking 25 episodes out of this beautiful knife.❤️

Hi sir I love from India .... I have a small request for you ... Please can you make an Indian mythology weapon .... called TRISHUL .... In your style

[@alanribeiro4504]

Up.

It kind of reminds me of a Trident. That could be an interesting project.

Love it. No talking, no stupid music. Just production.

[@xdymebagx3451]

Nice work, although i may have refrained from the gloss paint to finish it. Stain may have given it a much more elegant look

[@memesupreme4338]

It was poplar. Paint grade wood

[@JM-wy6sq]

I agree

[@maxssiomaxssio7070]

[@gerardosalazar161]

I like it but with all respect the “lacquer” paints looks awful, almost like it was spread with a coarse brush. Real lacquer consists of many coats that produce a beautiful finish, smooth and magical.

[@marywilliams7624]

I just came across your channel, I love it. No endless banter, just forging and creating.

[@scottlanghorst1483]

Crossed Heart Forge is the channel that influenced me too. The tanto from the railroad spike, is money. Your tanto is a work of art. 🤜🤛

[@streetDAOC]

Not crazy about the handle and sheath but the blade pattern turned out to be insane

[@haphazardlyhype]

I was thinking the same thing he uses this beautiful wood with a gorgeous grain and he doesn't even think to stain it imo the paint cheapens the whole thing.

[@CaptainRon1913]

Woodworking skills are terrible, not to mention using a crap wood like poplar. I don't know a heck of a lot about Japanese blades, but I've never seen a tanto look like that

[@jdbarnes5987]

@@CaptainRon1913 where’s your rendition?

[@alanr745]

@@CaptainRon1913, poplar has its place as a closed grain hardwood that is incredibly soft. I love how arrogant people call things "crap" yet show they know little-to-nothing about the subject matter of which they speak.

[@colephares4973]

Thanks for showing me this 13 DAYS AFTER IT CAME OUT KZbin!!!!!!

[@TheRustySavage]

Gorgeous work! I would have preferred a stain on the handle/sheath instead of a solid paint job....but that's just a preference. The fact this blade is made from chainsaw blades makes it one of the greatest blades to ever blade.

[@soft40]

All works is very good paint job too bad

[@BrutishYetDelightful]

I was thinking the exact same thing about the stain - but that probably has to do with my own woodworking bullshit, which is made worse by me living in a forest that just keeps supplying me with pretty wood. I have a few pieces of Bradford pear that picked up marvelous mineral staining from the earth. I'd give almost anything if I had enough of it to make a bagpipe out of.

[@lilithabunni]

agreed! stain where you can see the lovely wood would have been great. poplar does not need to be blacked out solid lol just my preference!

[@Lisa-uf7wv]

You Sir are EXTREMELY talented and I am EXTREMELY jealous. Thank you for putting your artwork out there for everyone to see.

[@hexagonshorts2186]

Question Does it really matter if you just put the whole chain and melt and not make a cube of it and melt????

[@timduffield472]

One of the best parts of it...and it's all very nicely and well done...is citing your influence and giving them credit at the end.

[@robsorgdrager8477]

I like to start by holding on to the chainsaw chain while I use 12 inch wire wheel on a 2 HP motor. This way I make sure to get body fluids evenly dispersed throughout the shop.

Wish I had this skill, I have a few arborist friends with heaps of old chains laying around. Would make such a cool gift for any one of them.

[@aaronroland336]

hello what powder did u use to add into that metal?

[@TheAdspy]

Shouldn't you use bamboo nail to keep it together? I heard metal ones tend to break the handle after some use

[@rambofan334]

0:56 You know shit's dangerous when the warning doesn't say "at home".

[@bond3737]

[@Lesardah]

Subbed. Fantastic skill / camerawork / editing

[@craig2963]

I am not sure why you would put the attachment point on the scabbard on that side. I understand it will be warn on the left hand side for a right handed person, but the Tanto should be carried blade side up...so to my eye that Tanto is for a left handed person to carry on there right hand side. Any explanation would be welcomed, as I have a Katana that is made the same way.

[@n.b.p.davenport7066]

Does using the chunk of wood add anything specific to the metal or is that just a hard surface you are useing at the moment? I do wood working , dont know much about metal.

[@mitchellkilby7606]

it’s just a means of only shaping the metal where the hammer strikes, instead of shaping it where the hammer strikes and where it presses into the anvil. It’s also a technique typically used for straightening blades without imposing damage to the shape and thickness of the billet.

[@DrJapan]

the black paint... kinda ruined it...

[@ELBAFUNO1]

What did you use to clean the chains?

[@davidashton2361]

That's what I want to know. Was it toxic - like acid?

[@ELBAFUNO1]

In my experience those things get fouled up with oil and tree sap.. I was more curious what he used to clean them and why he just dumped it into a drain outside… Hopefully not doinking up the environment Cool idea for making a knife tho

[@leightonalfaro9558]

I would love it in natural wood color ... You're skills are amazing....

[@TestTest-wk9bp]

What glue did you use for wood ?

[@ezraparsons3020]

[@mitchellkilby7606]

I wasn’t expecting such a large billet from that amount of chain, did you use any filler material at all?

[@nsfedh6917]

1084

[@FarawayForge]

I didn't, I was surprised too but I think there were a lot of pretty significant inclusions in the initial billet that were making it appear bigger than it was

[@jakubdegler]

What does the powder before hammering do?

[@MatthewMBurke-ny7km]

that is beautiful. thanks for sharing
