Forging A Knife With A Leaf - No Grinding

[@superdave54811]

I am so glad to see a blade made properly, hammer forged, not cut or ground with an angle grinder. So very refreshing. Thank you!

[@ieatcaribou7852]

That’s some seriously nice hammer accuracy. I love the forged look and minimal grinding look, so much nicer than fully shined blades (to me). Shame that leaf didn’t work out, I can’t count how many times I’ve ended changing a design midway through. Great job!

[@LawnMowerProductions]

For a sec I thought he meant he was gonna use a leaf as the hammer 😂

[@matthewperhne5562]

Yeah I did to I think it's supposed to be leaf spring

[@drstrangefart]

That blade came out beautiful. I like the leaf, that's something I'd weld to one of my shop fixtures as an ornament.

[@RobertBranch-FL]

That is an awesome knife you created! Thanks for letting us observe!

[@teddonovinchi3800]

Your a bad ass knife maker brother!!

[@-RONNIE]

Nice Job Jake

[@christianwolfington8510]

I liked the D-guard idea! It would be awesome if one day you tried a one piece bowie knife with an attached D-guard!

[@sbjennings99]

Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls

[@kensmapleleafretirement]

That is amazing. Do you have to worry about rust with a knife like that. I suppose, if would not really get wet, but if it did, would it rust or do you do something to prevent that?

[@ElChalillo]

Where can I buy a knife?

[@razvanburada1648]

Nice 👍 !!

[@dr.grind1154]

great video 😁 your next project should be a long sword 😌 but for now outstanding job 🗡✌🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒

[@PJTForging]

Let your steel heat up more to a yellow colour... will make hammering onto it a LOT easier and you will move material much faster. :) Looks good though! :)

[@busterposey9683]

I think that the camera just couldn’t capture the colour of the knife and that’s why it looked yellow

[@joseperse4122]

Genial muy buen trabajo!

[@danuke4254]

What happened to no grinding

[@bswtsp21]

Looks like your hand would slip right up the knife blade. Unless you’re supposed to put your fingers in the holes, which are kinda small?

[@gavocrazy]

Knives have been made for a long time without guards. If you grab it with purpose and thrust your probably going to be alright. Besides slashing's always an option too. Stab at soft spots. Bladder, kidneys, neck, etc. Or just use it like the tool that it is and just cut with it. It doesn't have to be a weapon.

[@bswtsp21]

Gavin D. Ok, fair, but it might still be nice to have like a nub to guard your fingers from the blade, no?

[@Mr.Saephan503]

bswtsp21 - I don't know what you plan on doing with knifes but if you have to put that much force into cutting something then you either need to sharpen you knife or use a bigger one. Lol

[@gavocrazy]

@@bswtsp21 go buy a cheap classic Mora 1 or an opinel No8 and you'll realize you don't need one.

[@danuke4254]

Finnish style puukos i elegies their called have been used for longer than we can imagine without guards

[@thegit8698]

I like that type of unfinished brut-de-forge look

[@JohnSmith-gs4lw]

Jas Ward Me too. Wish blacksmiths would do this much more often than they do.

[@parkeranderson2562]

It seems so natural to me

[@parkeranderson2562]

Liek the olden days, so cool

[@joshuasamuels4802]

What are you gonna make with one of those rollors? You've had that huge bearing for a while. Awesome knife btw...

[@Arghzt]

Nice knife

[@Jjftbb]

Jake..... Patreon 7 here.... Got my gig overseas so I'll be back supporting you triple next month brother. Tony

Not pretty like the others but WHAT A BEAST!!! Love it. Good health and stay safe.

Just got done with basketball now I need to relax

[@justicekaton8715]

No grinding? You used one to grind edges

[@930aladdin]

Throwing knife?

[@brianriley1810]

No gringong,, You in first 3 seconds 😂

[@manickn6819]

Good hardcore project. Too often on forging videos much of the work is done on the grinder.

[@marlontindugan5434]

❤❤❤❤❤👊

[@scorpion8720]

👍👍👍

[@LiamJPenn]

I might need to steal your idea of punching holes in the handle...

[@garrybeard2031]

Like it. how much for it 👍🇬🇧🍺🔪

[@sammidwood404]

Why not leave the leaf attached curl it over on itself bring it up into a D guard ya got a pretty functional trench knife

[@expandflextape4386]

Issa knife

[@danuke4254]

That’s not a knife this is a knife

[@julianogoncalves2382]

[@jam-motovlog9237]

Dude you did great. Please if you have extra financial send me one of your made.

[@grahamparr4710]

Do not mean to be picky but I definitely saw some grinding, you could have filed the edge.

[@castsmith6783]

now forge a knife using tree leaf

[@viniciussbenz4301]

Could make some interesting patterns if he made a rather flat one and used it as a stamp of sorts

[@WARRIORofHARDCORE]

would buy/10

[@АзаматАбдуваханов]

Привет, я давно наблюдаю за твоим каналом, очень интересные ты вытворяешь ножи! хочу такой нож! Продай мне её, я из России!

[@pantheon508]

Oh yeah yeah

[@SuperiorEtchworx]

There was I waiting for you to get out an impressive leaf and forge a knife with it, then around 7 minutes in, I knew it wasn't coming.......so disappointed!!

[@BerzerkerGatzu]

Looks like Asumas knives from Naruto.

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

I kind of like it not so cleaned up with the rough look. It looks medevil

[@Mann._0]

I was thinking of an actual leaf from a tree

[@jan_kx2984]

Dude, you have over 300k subs, what about a real anvil? 😂

[@viniciussbenz4301]

Why? That works perfectly well

[@gavocrazy]

He's forging knives isn't he? There's videos of Nepalese blacksmiths forging kukris on makeshift anvils that are basically just sledgehammer heads embedded in logs.

[@jan_kx2984]

@@viniciussbenz4301 Of course, but you can get a good used anvil (especially good, old ones) for about 100-200 bucks. I purchased a german one with about 220 pounds (100kg) from 1882 of ebay for 100€ (I live in Germany) and it is just crazy what a quality product even such an old anvil is! You have much more possibilities when using a real anvil with a horn and a square horn. The hardened surface is way tougher then a steel block and it helps a lot while forging. And with a hard holy you can use lots of tools simplifying your work and make it much more precise! Well, if you don't have much money, a steel block or even an old brick would work, but if you have the chance to pick up a cheap anvil, especially old ones, this would be a way better choice and a significant improvement to the quality of your work. You can even say, an old anvil is better than a modern or new one, because on the one hand it is way less pricy and on the other hand it is much more high-quality.

[@jan_kx2984]

@@gavocrazy Never the less it works, but things like the handle he had to cut of could have been made with more precision and with a better result on an anvils horn. And, as I said in my previous comment, you can get high-quality used ones for only 100-200$.

[@danuke4254]

I would highly discourage the use of a brick for forging and even most (not all) rocks as they are extremely brittle and you don’t even have to miss a hit for them to shatter

[@joshuanoyes9317]

No grinder? First tool used is an angle grinder...

[@samnottheotherone4363]

Technically he said no grinding not no grinder. He used a cutting disc not a grinding disc.

[@chrisdacosta8266]

No need to defend him Sam. Someone just wanted to feel special and instead showed the usual arrogant driven stupidity.

[@garyvancollins6762]

That’s a coil spring not a leaf spring.

[@iantorque]

That was the exact same thing I was thinking... 🤣

[@Marc-qo1gz]

That’s not leaf it’s spring
