The fit and finish is my favorite part of your videos. The clean, overall lines are way more attractive to me than fancy pattern welded steels and rare wood. That center ridge running the length of the piece is fantastic. That's not easy to do with multiple parts.

[@blacksambo9948]

This is what I'd call a very satisfying video, no words just a master blacksmith creating something truly beautiful. thank you.

As a guy new to the knife crafting realm, it’s a pleasure to watch you create your blades. I learn many things from watching your videos, and i know the video and editing part can be a pain so I’d like to thank you for your effort. Cheers mate!

[@jonnathonspencer]

It's amazing how much you teach thru your videos without saying a single word. Thank you for your dedication to the craft.

[@az80311]

Freek this is a beautiful piece of work. The acabord is amazing and well made. The dagger is one of the best I have ever seen and your video is perfect. Good work my friend. Thank you

[@tonybletas930]

Just remember when Knights, dragons, shields and swords come back, I'm on your side! Beautiful job there my friend!

[@JojoZXA]

Damn dude, you're talented. I can only imagine the endless hours at a forge that allowed you to become this skilled.

[@daleb1225]

I have said it before and will say it again you make some incredible stuff, watching you make the scabbard, then the end results I am in awe. Thanks for taking the time to share what you do with the rest of us, you are amazing and these videos are outstanding.

[@johnuriniuk588]

Your craftsmanship is truly outstanding to create such a beautiful piece that is worthy to be in a museum that nobody would know that you made it recently. Absolutely great work thank you for sharing your work.

[@v1k1ng421]

Awesome work, as usual. I love how you make the different elements of your handles and guards blend together so smoothly.

[@scottriley1913]

What a beautiful craft. Rarely done like this anywhere in the world today, thank you, much pleasure in watching this craft materialize.

[@patpowell862]

Wow! You Sir are so inspiring. I get so relaxed watching you work. You remind me of a old video I watched about 7 yrs ago. The blacksmith was commissioned to craft a long sword for the tourism ministry of a country I can't remember the name of. He did amazing work like you, including a egg shaped pommel carved from ivory of a elven maiden emerging from within the egg. With an onix grip. Turned out he was allergic to onix dust and had to premedicate before working it.

[@RickRabjohn]

You do some amazing work my friend - this turned out beautiful!

[@haldie94]

thats not very difficult.. the difficulty is to make it not heavy and strong ;-)

[@joshschneider9766]

Many modern smiths hold vintage weapons and marvel at their lightness. That's the Mark of a real combat knife or sword.

[@imdave1952]

Absolutely beautiful, a true artist and professional well made.

[@TheUnclefester13]

Freerk makes the kinds of blades I wish to make one day. And thank you for making your blades a home. A blade is not finished in my opinion till it has a sheath or scabbard to rest its edge in. Beautiful work.

[@WouterZtube]

Such a work of art. Love how the spine continues all the way to the pommel

That is the coolest dagger I've ever seen! The quality is unbelievable! That is what a king would carry.

[@johnd1774]

As an goldsmith i really can appreciate the amount of skill, time and workmanship in a piece like that. Well done

[@smokepeddler]

What a beautiful piece. Great video. Thanx for posting.

[@luciusirving5926]

Been thinking about forging a piece of coil spring into a dagger. I love my pumicecrete rocket stove by the way and thanks for the video. I needed this.

[@ColdHawk]

The effect of the leather wrist wraps, wool sweater, and that funky respirator is definitely Steampunk!

[@jrdeckard3317]

What a beautifully crafted and balanced dagger. Anyone would be ecstatic to own it.

[@alanashley6097]

It's wonderful to watch a master at work. Such a beautiful knife.

[@jamesh5460]

As always, a work of art.

[@churrundog]

The sound on the anvil is super satisfying. You can tell most of the energy of each blow is being used to deform the metal.

[@Lesnz2009]

Another great result, I love the way the projects finsh.

[@jimsgoproadventures2724]

to the normal person it looks kinda simple, but being a knife maker I can honestly say its beautiful, the line all the way down the center is literally eye candy

[@slavikslavik1139]

Какие у мастера золотые руки.Такими людьми надо гордится.

[@glennworton2494]

I like this piece the best, so far. Would love to see something similar in Damascus, and some furniture on the scabbard.

[@dylanromano3713]

Glenn Worton Would have been Damascus if I could afford the extra cost. Sorry. I'm super happy with what Freerk made though!

[@dylanromano3713]

sman7290 Yes I am, thank you. I'm so excited about it.

[@glennworton2494]

Just an expression of my preferences.not a criticism. It's a superb piece that i would be proud to own.

[@РоманК-к3ы]

Хорошая работа ! От хорошего мастера ! Всегда радует !

[@jeffreyharville1918]

Beautiful!! -- I would make some suggestion about your workings, though. No.1- wear leather gauntlets over your long sleeves and sweaters. They will keep your garments from catching in your power tools. They will also protect your wrist from hot sparks. No. 2 - you did not show (in this video) how it would be attached to a belt. How would you make a "frog" for this sidearm? -- One note that I have read in the past; Quite a few daggers of this type were made from broken swords. A swordsman would have a weapon that he particularly like, but it breaks, so what to do, make a dagger to go along with his new sword. But this is a very BEAUTIFUL dagger, and well made, Thank you for sharing the build!

[@sullysullivan9320]

True craftsmanship right there. A beautiful piece of work

I gotta agree with all the compliments here. This is the knife I would make myself and want the most.

Gorgeous! A tiny earth magnet recessed into the tip of the scabbard helps keep that piece tight fitting!

Very impressive piece. I admire your work.

[@PrimeMl]

simple yet elegant, Take my money ! Amazing craft.

[@Sarge0311]

Very nice work sir ! So you have to have skills to make beautiful things out of steel and have the skills to make beautiful things with woods!

[@rpdfangon]

I’ve always admired your videos for how thoroughly the footage is, demonstrating every step taken and the artistic stylings of your craft. I am especially impressed with how you create the handles of your blades, watching you work is a learning experience. But may I suggest you try making a blade of a non-Western origin? I specifically suggest that you try to create a Filipino barong with a full tang handle, as I am curious how you would construct it, as the barong is typically a blade with a “rat tail” styled handle. But this is only a suggestion from a random dude on KZbin, so do whatever you want! Keep up the good work!

[@appleyanimator6541]

Sir Remington another eastern blade that I really like is the Vietnamese Tr'oung Dao - although at first glance it might look like some over the top anime sword, it's extremely good at cutting due to its unique top-heavy design. Skallagrim did a review of an antique he got, if you'd like to see it being used.

[@russellf1339]

Sorry Sir You are too good for any comments from me. I can only admire and learn. I truly enjoyed the videos. Thanks for your time.

Incredible work! I would recommend a steel cap on the scabbard though. Better durability and it would tie the pieces together aesthetically.

[@ladamyre1]

Skip to 17:11 to see a thing of beauty. You've made a work of art Freerk, and the scabbard is perfect to mirror the shape of the blade. I expected a ring or attached leather loop to put on a belt or sash, but I suppose it's good enough to just stick down in your pants.

[@НиколайТурмович]

Классный кинжал. Но наковальня больше понравилась. и вообще, добротная мастерская.

Понравилось, что среди множества клинков мало кто делает кованные долы. Но вот ТБ при работе с болгаркой -- просто жесть.
