DIY Simple Forged Rebar Throwing Knife

[@LycanRace]

I've been following you for about 5-6 years now and I'm honestly impressed with your evolution. Look at how far you came from just being the first guy to make a pvc bow to a full forging, weapon throwing, sharp shooting badass-warrior with quite a fanbase. Without any sarcasm: I salute you!

[@TheRunesmythe]

I really like the over all shape of this one; there's just something about the way the pommel looks that gives the whole knife a very flowing, organic feel to it. Very cool.

[@TristanDare]

Great work! I love rebar knives, they're really cool, and really easy!

[@Archaeopteryx128]

I like that! Nick, I quite enjoy your use of rebar. So many smiths disdain this common material, but as you demonstrate, it's quite practical for many uses.

[@WarpedLegacy]

I want a forge that will heat up my stock that fast! It didn't even look like you let go! You just held it in there for a second and pulled it out orange!!! Oh the magic of editing! Keep up the great videos, I'm enjoying them. Define Your Legacy!!

[@AP-kr4pi]

This is honestly an awesome design for a knife and I’m 100% gonna steal it and make myself a belt of throwing knives for fun

[@themightycellyt5027]

I love your content! Keep up your good work! Youre a youtuber who isnt all about clicks and money and i love that! thank you for beeing here!

[@deathsythelui]

Is it weird that one of my favorite parts of your videos is listening to the rain falling on your workshop roof?

[@virusinstall9658]

Backyard ASMR 😂👌

[@tomdrew5608]

This came out nice. I like that it throws well in both directions.

[@bretlemieux4533]

Hey Nick I would love to see you make a saber of some kind out of a lawnmower blade.

[@scientificalan4715]

Suggestion for next video: How to make rebar out of rebar. All sarcasm aside, great video. Making one of these myself soon.

[@fireandblades5171]

what kind of anvil is that and where can i get one? or any recommendations for cheap good sized anvils?

[@lololie22]

I have a sugestion. Could you maybe try to forge a sword?

[@sammoreland6623]

He did a Kopis out of a lawnmower blade.

[@steelandsoul1987]

Simple but functional, I like it as always :)

[@boanoite7155]

Wow Nice vid Nick keep doing the great job We all miss your pvc bows, show us some ways to learn how to shot better too

[@outdoorswithben8613]

I have so much scrap rebar. This would definitely be worth trying!

[@sandydennis8644]

Awesome video. I really like how much information and instruction you gave in this one. Nice work!

[@TheColinShowGaming]

That's awesome!!! I have a suggestion, try making a set of spectral blades. God Bless You, and Your Family, and Your Channel!!!

[@jacobdrescher1756]

[@shinjitekawatta]

Dude! Yes! Awesome! So want to do this!

[@kaylamarie8309]

I love all of your videos..I hope you've made yourself a millionaire..you deserve it! :)

[@jacopoviola8590]

hey man really neat work but i have to say, please coat your forge in refractory kaowool in the long run will release nasty fumes if left in direct heat i hope there's enough ventilation in your shop

[@TrikeRoadPoet]

I'd like to see you forge a rebar curved knife like used t carve the interior of bowls

[@shiv9505]

great weapon nick what about pvc compound bow plz make one of that

[@SharpWorks]

That's sick! I am definitely going to try to make one of these.

[@drw5252]

You are good at what you do i was wondering do you use to heat up the metals you work with?

[@timleonard6429]

you should make a balisong/ butterfly knife

[@lindseyzacek5211]

thanks for the idea now I got some throwing knives to make

[@BackyardBowyer]

+Lindsey Zacek Awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@allistarcurrie8802]

always love the vids Nick! Keep it up

[@jonathanruth9095]

You make tons of knives. I'd like to see more swords.

[@FootballofOregonBro]

How do you form where the knife drops right after the handle? Seems to be the hardest part for me.

[@dawabbitt3079]

LONG DISTANCE SHURIKEN SPIKE: 12" length of #5 REBAR (Nominal Diameter: 0.625") 6" length of 1/2" SCH40 PVC Pipe (Average I.D. is 0.620") 12-14 5" lengths of 550 paracord (Average Diameter: 5/32" (Please note that #5 REBAR weighs approx. 1.043 lbs / ft, so you may prefer to make the entire SHURIKEN 1/2 scale?) Sharpen the end of the REBAR to a point and temper. Heat the PVC Pipe until you can shove approx. 4" of the REBAR into the end of the pipe. Install the (Estimated 12-14) 5" lengths of 550 paracord into other end of the pipe, as "fletching". *****(Substitute an old T-shirt or Silk material for the fletching, if preferred)***** The SHURIKEN can now be thrown long distances. (Have never tried this before, but have thought of doing so, for quite some time).

[@madisonb4551]

nice work nick looks great! ever tried forging a tomahawk? :) thats next on my list now that ive got a little forge welding under my belt :) Damascus would be cool too

[@rustygamer5564]

Hey Nick I have been a long time fan and have seen you change from one forge to the other and was wandering what the forge you use now

[@corycolcord5734]

Do you heat the water before quenching or is it tepid?

[@salimesalime6503]

Good job my freind

[@shanesullivan4699]

You the man!!!

[@Shino2213]

hey nick did you harden the back of the knife ?

[@CaptainDominic]

How heavy are these. I read idea weight for a throwing knife is 200-250g

[@juanboyer5970]

Ur vids are awesome

[@FrigginBoomToys]

Thinking of getting started with knife making. Is this a good first project?

[@rogerbennett]

If you are trying to learn to make knives, I'd say good first projects would use stock removal on a harder steel so that you aren't learning to use a fire&anvil at the same time. If you specifically want to heat and beat steel, then cheap stock like this, no handle scales and an easy heat treat make this a good starting project.

[@fireandblades5171]

this would work but if you dont have a forge you can draw a knife on flat steel such as 1095 and use a bench grinder to grind it down to get the shape and then bevel it and sharpen

[@foisalahmmed6345]

thanks for sharing....

[@dimitriyryadinskiy9212]

you should forge a trident

[@bkackmagic555]

id like to see if u could make a folding throwing knife

[@evolutionglitch4739]

Please do a rebar spoon to complete the set!

[@Nickgiorgio111]

Can you please make another pvc bow?!?!

[@Nathan-ds3sp]

[@Novassar]

3:03 You scared me a little there.

[@TheOneWhoTubes]

Guillaume Sinou lol

[@peterlustig8021]

he does the 1000° knife challenge in every forging video. he is a hardcore dude

[@TheOneWhoTubes]

Guillaume Sinou He quenches by sword swallowing. 🤣

[@johnsbrewerjr2516]

I'd like to see a cross between a cleaver razor and a kramabit

[@TA5TEY]

Hey Nick, great video! What is the easiest way to get rebar, either for cheap or preferably for free?

[@lazynihilist203]

If you call around to various construction crews, you can find the ones that do a lot of demolition work. Once you know who does it, you can pester them periodically to see if they're working on any concrete structures. Couple of hours of dumpster diving with a small sledge and you can get a good deal of free metal scrap. As long as the boss doesn't have a problem with you scavenging, you're good to go. You can also talk to local government to scavenge off the demo crews whenever there's a restoration project going, they get paid for removing waste by the ton so they generally don't care if you come down and walk off a few bits and pieces.

[@TA5TEY]

Very informative, thanks!

[@FargoFX]

Simen Kulterud , I get mine from Lowes or other home improvement type stores. VERY low priced if you buy 20 foot lengths and cut them yourself.

[@chrisbarlow9384]

Simen Kulterud i have often found rebar at building sites. they just leave it lying around then chuck concrete on it!? what a waste i figure, thank heaven's for cordless grinders!

[@sanb3586]

Just break your wall and boom you will get as much as you want

[@raygetoutdoors6151]

Like your videos....any reason that you used water instead of oil to quench? I thought water may cause cracking in the metal. Ray....Oklahoma

[@chrisjones6002]

IIRC he has said he uses water on some knives because the steel doesn't have much carbon content. Lower carbon means it won't get as hard and is less likely to crack.

[@melissameyer8536]

How bout making some arrowheads out of rebar?

[@RK-uf2md]

how much would it cost for a set of 3 rebar throwing knives ???

[@timjohle8876]

Rebar is cheap and cheaper when I get it out of the trash pile at work. Why not use rebar,one can make it look nice and shinny or leave it barbaric looking. I like imperfections. Nice job brother,keep on forging.

[@eastcoast_egolifter]

you are so cool

[@lindseyzacek5211]

your bad ass I like all your videos.

[@TheMrWoodsman]

Could you make a gas forge please? Regards

[@checkmatefurries286]

Could you forge a sword from rebar?

[@apvtethic8818]

Vaf if you have a giant bar of rebar, maybe

[@rune.v5455]

[@johnupchurch7685]

Good work! Audio needs a little work, strange background noise. Good luck!

[@lemonface6.017]

try make a pvc throwing axe

[@liamwinter4512]

Have you ever thought about casting aluminum weapons or simple knives? I've just recently watched a video of a fella making duck things.

[@apvtethic8818]

Liam Winter but aluminium is not a proper metal to craft tools or weapons. And casting makes it even worst.

[@MI_44177]

make a kukri styled knife

[@azra7874]

suddenly annoying neighbors

[@slingshotwarrrior8105]

I recently made a spear out of a garden tool with my bro

Aaron Sweeney because its cheap and easy to get

[@فارسالاسمري-ت5ه]

Ilov you man

[@paulie4x1]

Say Heah Nock, your pretty good, I see.,,.

[@tombob671]

🖒🖒🖒

[@Gamer-dq8kr]

Can you show us how to throw knives plz

[@chrisjones6002]

It's all about the distance and how many times the knife will spin. Also it works better if you don't try to throw the knife really hard. It would be difficult to learn from a video I think.

[@Gamer-dq8kr]

Thank you

[@pehenryjr]

Could you do a Naruto Styled kunai
