Fantasy Challenge , RIBCAGE !!

In this video I build my entry to the Fantasy Challenge ,first I want to thank our sponsors and our judges. My knife is a futuristic design that has a set of rib like knives that can be exposed and hidden by the movement of one finger in the handle , many precision components in the body of the knife had to be made for the movement to happen among the precision cut feather pattern forged Damascus .

Mind-blowing! So many moving parts. Huge congrats brother! A real showpiece.

[@BonifabcustomRobBonifacio]

Thanks brother

[@christophersavignon4191]

I was thinking that you could just have a spring-loaded sliding grip be attached to the center gear bar, so when you push the blade in up to the guard, you can just keep pushing to extend the teeth. This is very close to a fantasy concept that actually works, kind of. Okay, after seeing all the videos, this is the only one that I can vote for. There were some very pretty knives, but most weren't very fantastic or replicating an existing design. It came down to the whip sword and this, and this beats the whip sword in originality and execution. Congratulations.

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Great build, Rob! The teeth retracting is awesome!

[@BonifabcustomRobBonifacio]

Thanks Denis for making me part of the challenge

[@dankster990]

This definently is winner of all knives in this fantasy challenge

[@omnomshibob]

Mate you're absolutely crazy. Crazy like DaVinci. I still have a few to watch yet but you're my top pick so far.

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Wowers that's definitely unreal and very unique design there Rob. Wow that's awesome. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.

[@FarawayForge]

INSANE dude, I had no idea from first glance in the pics and thumb that all of that was going on, really impressive. Also I want your table

[@mikewomack5178]

Damn!! That is insane!! True Fantasy Build!

[@broadriverforge]

Never mind out of the box, that’s out of this universe!

[@TooTall553]

Fantasy, Fantasy you hit it all don't know what to say very very impressive..🤙👍

[@dustinmccaulley3563]

that table is toooooo cool!!!!

[@NjordArtisan]

Oh wow! that is such a cool design!! Fantasy build, through and through. Love it!

[@PJTForging]

Jesus, so many finicky little parts. Good job! 🔥🤘

[@theriversexperience9383]

That definitely ticks all the Fantasy boxes. Absolutely epic!

[@Chromevulcan]

Congrats. You're very dry and boring but also highly intelligent and creative, an odd combination. You've earned a subscriber today. Thank you.

[@mikekooz475]

The pop out blades make a very satisfying sound . Nice

[@caseyelworthy2759]

Very cool design! I love how smooth, and firm the mechanism seems! I can see why you kept clicking it in and out in the video - it looks really satisfying to play with! World's most dangerous fidget toy? 😜

[@RedBeardOps]

Man... that's one of the coolest knives I've ever seen. Very slick!

[@dustinmccaulley3563]

love ur channel too my guy!!

[@Thomason1005]

crazy build. you really know your machines! that knife would fit well in a scify movie!

[@mattdowds8505]

Awesome build! It reminds me of the weapons they used to make from the rostrums of Sawfish. The guard makes me think it would not only look better, but function better too as a push dagger.

[@jeffjefferson2676]

Really cool sword. Like a movie prop. Unique design. :) Greetings, Jeff

[@rebelyell1970]

You are a mad genius my friend!

[@oneshotme]

Great looking fantasy knife and a wonderful job making it as well!!! Enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Love it!

[@eddimartincasillaslopez3840]

No lo puedo creer gusto cuando ya creí a ver visto todo me k de sin palabras amigo estás en otro nivel excelente fantasy esas pequeñas cuchillas saliendo me recordaron mucho a la del hombre araña 3 k Harry tiene un brazalete en el antebrazo k tiene cuchillas saliendo de el gran trabajo te deseo lo mejor

[@huntintrailmetals9343]

Very nice work! And awesome machining work!

[@ShaminMike]

wait a second is your table a bunch of turbo turbines!??? haha thats awesome! great build brother wow. crazy and cool!

[@gerardmourits8709]

That the singular most awesome breach of the Geneva convention I have ever seen

[@hunt_trap_fish]

I really can't decide if I think this is effing amazing, or if I hate it 🤣🤣. Either way, awesome job.

[@jesiahrivera9260]

So bad ass! Great work.

[@Drew_lininger]

Dang that’s very cool 🔥🔥

[@andyc750]

brilliant, really original

[@derfredyy9540]

I love your turbine table

[@cae2487]

Fantastic job Rob! This is a great unique knife. That retraction action is incredible. It looks so simple but we all know you had to really put some thought and effort into making this knife what it is. Look forward to seeing the more in depth build processes. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

[@soulshado]

My first thought when you described the design would be to have the blades open and close attached by a rigid rod around a pivot point

[@charlesroman9163]

Wow. I am glad that you got in on this challenge, so I could find your channel. That thing is absolutely wicked.

[@r4dwolf]

Fantastic build! Looking forward to the next videos too 😁

[@DonsArtnGames]

Hmm... definitely in the top 3 for me in voting... But I do have a concern about the user experience. One would have to use their other hand in order to deploy and retract the ribs. I would have liked to have seen a single hand action or trigger for that.

[@HansKnives]

This is definitely the best fantasy weapon! Plus, your table is really cool.

[@inali_illustrates9142]

Actually this might be practical too, the teeth would allow you to use it like a swordbreaker and disable the opponent's weapon, not to mention the could be used as sort of parrying hooks

[@OldHickoryForge]

Nice work man I never would have thought of that!

[@brysonalden5414]

Just thinking up the design is impressive as hell to me, and the final product is awesome. Obviously the detailed work needed to make this is just amazing. I am gobstruck.

[@Take_And_Make]

That is definitely one of a kind knife, with a smart design!

[@ZombieWoodturner]

very cool. maybe you could upgrade. have the handle twist to extend the little blades. then its a stab, twist, more carnage sort of thing.....ha!

[@julitoj4362]

Never would have thought it could be possible. I tip my hat off to you good sir. Kudos 🎉

[@SmittyTutDesigns]

What an absolutely Amazing Build!!! The sound of those spikes going in and out is so satisfying! Definitely subscribing :D

[@byronkennedy7912]

New subscriber. I enjoyed the "engineer/machinist approach" from the concept sketch, to use of 3D printing for "proof of concept" of the mechanism, to the final assembly. While I'm not sure I could consider this a "final, usable knife" without sharpened edges and "teeth", this build is certainly "epic" ... and has all of the traits of first-class movie weapons production. Thanks.

[@jhsrt985]

Subbed. You and the German whip sword are the clear winners 🏆in this challenge... Unless someone can remember how to do alchemy and make real Damascus Edit: I thought this was going to be a chainsaw but it's still really cool and functional. Whip sword wins imho

[@HeavyForge]

Now that’s intuitive!! Great build man!🔥👌🏻

[@redwolfknives3174]

Insane creativity! Great work man!

[@Aleeknives]

Man watching your process from start to finish was really inspiring! Awesome work Rob!

[@BonifabcustomRobBonifacio]

Thanks brother

[@TheGunf1ghter]

Ohh wow, that is cool as heck!!! From a practical stand point I was wondering if the guard facing the handle, does it get in the way of your hand at all?

[@TheRavnKnight]

thats cool

[@hainesknives]

That is Cool!!!

[@politicallyincorrectpanda]

When holding the knife in use how are you going to activate the spikes? The trigger will be directly under your palm! But still looks mint 👌

[@huntintrailmetals9343]

Who can compete with this😂😂

[@819ANT]

Amazing work could have maybe done it so the blades pop out as you stab something kinda like a mechanical broadhead for hunting.

[@ClenioBuilder]

😱😱😱😱😱👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@peltiereric6497]

You essentially made a blade version of a Hawaiian War Club that was traditionally made out of hard wood and the blades were Sharks Teeth or sometimes Obsidian. Also the Aztec had a similar multi bladed war club. Nice take on making it not a club and futuristic with the retractable blades though

[@michaelmain1990]

I NEED YOUR TABLE, I have a turbo cold side(compressor housing) tattooed on my forearm. Also, anyway we could get the 3d print files?

[@mushfiqurrahman2515]

GJ.

[@Nhire]

where's that fantasy weapon?

[@DBCraftWorld]

I think you should make a colab with Sven at @njord Artisan! You would make amazing things together! Very cool knife! This was a challenge for you as a bladesmith and engineer! Love it!

[@bobbiscub]

Absolutely insane dude! I really wish that other piece would have worked. Is there any salvaging it?

[@mrjibrhanjamalkhan2144]

.lol cheating
