Forging fossil damascus and bandsaw chips

[@Kevin-gx8lc]

Hi Loz, great stuff ! Can't wait to see how it turns out, you always set the bar so high... I always have great expectations from your ideas and when you post a video I know it's going to be a great night on You Tube! Greetings from Churchtown.

Thanks Kevin. I think I'm going to be very happy with this knife the wrought iron is looking fantastic mate cheers

With fossil it’s really easy to pull the different patterns to the surface with a really deep cut ladder patter style.

[@LozHarrop]

good tip mate cheers

[@johnniekane6315]

Conor domastic work the best. You can arrange the steel in the can 😉

[@LozHarrop]

AHH just realised you meant canoe 😁👍👍

[@allanbrydson6563]

Love your content Loz always informative. Canned Damascus looks cool as and the file will be a right tool maybe even sharper than the butchers knife.

[@LozHarrop]

Cheers Allan, oh yea very nice steel in those files.

[@sithlordjeffbledsoe651]

I love your scientific method!

[@LozHarrop]

Thank you! Cheers!

Awesome video as always Loz!! Can't wait for the next one!!

[@LozHarrop]

Thanks John

[@ozhughes716]

If one of those bashes out to 200x55x4mm that'd be great mate!! Oh and I've got some double sided sticky tape for that vice if you need it!! 👍👍👍🍻🍻🍻

[@LozHarrop]

Hey Oz how about 105 mm x 20mm x 3mm full of cracks and inclusions nothing a bit of buffing wont fix 😂😂

[@milobearfrenchie]

Cant wait to see what your gona make mate 👍🤝

[@LozHarrop]

You're welcome ryan

[@DTKcustomknives]

Look forward to the end result buddy

[@LozHarrop]

Cheers mate Def different from my norm 👍

The file knife should be a hell of a cutter. File knives usually treat up great. The hobo damascus might have had a better chance welding if you had cleaned the scale off the bits on the grinder first.

[@LozHarrop]

Yep good files make fantastic knives James. The off cuts were clean mate had them in acid until they were spotless I've figured out why the saw chips are hard to weld and I'll explain in the next vid bud.

[@tropifiori]

Have you ever used chips fro the lathe? Some of the long helical ones might look cool

[@LozHarrop]

Yes i put some in the last can Frank they did look cool. Cheers

Good day Sir, always a pleasure to watch your work. I’m wondering if there is name on your leg vise? Mine is identical. 🇨🇦 I do a lot of go mai with wrought. It’s so beautiful. I like files for core as they are great steel and colour really well. 15N20 bandsaw blades for the middle. Thanks for sharing your work, I learn from you every time.

[@LozHarrop]

Hi Steve not seen any marks but will look tomorrow and let you know, yes I also love the look of wrought iron I think this wrought is going to be the best looking so far. Cheers.

[@waynecurie71]

Has anyone ever attempted to forge a pattern that looks like an ammonite fossil, you know that spiral look the shell has. Be cool to see if its doable Loz

[@LozHarrop]

Im sure someone has tried Wayne probably the nearest is jelly roll damascus
