Forging Game of Thrones sword Dawn, the complete movie

Forging Dawn, the sword of the morning, approximately 116 cm long forged from 432 layers of Pattern welded steel, hardened and tempered.
the handle is made of steel, beechwood and leather. the star inlay is bronze,
The greatsword Dawn was forged from the heart of a fallen star and has been wielded by Daynes for ten thousand years. The blade is as pale as milkglass, unlike dark Valyrian steel, but is similar in strength and sharpness. Unlike other houses who have ancestral swords, House Dayne does not pass its sword from lord to heir. Only a knight of House Dayne who is deemed worthy can wield Dawn, and the Sword of the Morning is envied throughout the Seven Kingdoms.
The last known user of the sword was Ser Arthur Dayne, a chivalrous knight in the Kingsguard of Aerys II Targaryen.

The roar of the forge, The thumping of the power hammer, the buzz of the welder and the whir of the grinder. I do enjoy the sounds of a man at work not being drowned out by lame elevator music that so many insist on using. Great video.

[@jrod5212]

I don't know why but your videos are terribly therapeutic for me. I may have watched just about all of your videos of forging weapons. Your art and attention to detail is exceedingly good and very appreciated. The only problem I have is that wish there were more. Keep up the great work!

[@freerkwieringa275]

thanks! good to hear.

[@johnravenwolf2507]

They are it helped me heal from a bad PTSD episode I was having I watched and it was like it reset my brain or something just the way he has his shop set up man it's like everything is perfect 👌

[@neithertwosturrr3016]

I think it has to do with the no nonsense just pure rhythmic hammering and grinding. You get to see the step by step of the whole piece wuthout interruption or breaking the need/want to see the final product.

[@mikezeke7041]

Dude! I'm gonna remember the bronze brazing rod in a slot! watched whole thing to see how you would do the pommel. Epic. thanks for the upload.

[@TomUK737]

Great video. I'd love to see you forge your own interpretation of the traditional Targaryen swords Blackfyre and Dark Sister.

[@NathanNostaw]

Thank you for such a good build video. What a beautiful sword and the pattern looks great. So much work compressed down to a short 45min.

[@boduke1776]

Well I enjoy the videos. Learning new tricks. You're a very good blacksmith.

[@davidjackson8942]

Absolutely amazing. I'm not sure how or when but somehow I will start learning how to become a black smith. Thanks for posting the videos. I can't stop watching them

[@benjaminpacey4627]

That is an amazing sword, big fan of Game of Thrones and you certainly did this justice!

[@davidens8204]

really really nice one though if you sold it would be worth a mint you put so much work into it

[@circle7studios]

I can watch this over and over, such amazing work

[@hungryarch7319]

Dude! So. Ridiculously. Beautiful.

[@guisasse]

I always wondered about how you decide what kind of steel to use on your projects, if it's by size/importance/availability and such... Really good stuff

[@tomhuss972]

Love your work thanks for sharing

[@_batman.]

That's a masterpiece! I hope you will make Ice, Eddard Stark's sword. Looking forward to your other videos!

[@OrinSorinson]

Great craftsmanship and a beautifully done video.

[@Hassell163]

All your swords seem magnificent to me, there will be some that I like more than others and then you do with all the swords that you make sell them or have some exposure to see them. Thank you

[@rivercitymike76]

might be time for an Ulfbert. Cheers

[@marvellousNO1]

Heel mooi Freek. Weer een master piece . Ben niets anders van je gewend. Je verdient echt veel meer Subscribers

[@freerkwieringa275]

bedankt, dan moet ik elke dag posten, krijg je saaiere filmpjes met minder voortgang. youtube werkt zo. elke dag posten geeft het beste rendement. leuk als je game filmpjes maakt maar niet te doen als je arbeidsintensief werk filmt.

[@marvellousNO1]

Freerk Wieringa daar heb je gelijk in. Keep up the good work 👍🏾

[@maycondouglasdebritocampos4282]

Parabéns trabalho incrível 👏👏👏

[@joeclooney1997]

I'd love to have the chance to learn this craft

[@ronaldmallette]

Absolutely stunning work!

[@ians1464]

What an awesome idea for inlay

[@barristanselmy2758]

Remarkable. What a piece.

[@mmkghost]

Thing of beauty. Wishing to see you build a Turkish "Yatagan Sword" with a perfect curve 😍

[@Venom742000]

That my friend is beautiful!

[@bellavi5398]

I believe I saw this sword listed on eBay some time ago... because it had identical "engraved mark" to the blade below the crossguard

[@freerkwieringa275]

yes, the owner had to sell it

[@haraldbearclaw1856]

I wish you good fortune in the wars to come. And now it begins...

[@mattythemartian3742]

Harald Bearclaw No... now it ends

[@rabooey]

Excellent work! Would love to watch you make Jon Snow's Longclaw sword.

[@mealex303]

Phenomenal!!! ild love a dagger but no money hurts x

[@gedgedk4929]

wow truly beautiful work sir.

[@ErnestoBrausewind]

A couple of years ago i forged a sword myself in a Workshop - compared to this it is a simple, wonky, wobbly and by now a bit rusty hunk of metal - still one of the coolest things i ever made. The more vids i watch her the stronger the urge to give it another go...

[@ErnestoBrausewind]

Did it in Molln, Austria in a smithy that is over 600 years old and home to one of the last people who forges plate Armor - the homepage is unfortunately only in german, but there are some nice pics www.schmiede-schmidberger.at/

[@AlphaYTang]

Beautiful work sir. Thanks for sharing this with us. What kind of wax/oil did you use on the wood for the handle?

[@OmegaMegalodon]

beautiful sword

[@ians1464]

Wow that's a good-looking sword

[@sirlurksalot4454]

YOU are the man wow ! Awesome sword I want it

[@irvhawke199]

Excellent sword.

[@bladesofsteel6456]

Heel Mooi... Goed Gedaan...Bravo...!

[@darthkarr]

brilliant work mr. And captured the shows version (which felt was underwhelming compared to the books descriptions). If could would totally buy a custom from you

[@johngraham3035]

Your work is excellent 😀

[@yunusmustafa6914]

Ma sha Allah. Nice

[@ICU2B4UDO]

You said you used 432 layers but not the type of steels used...Just wondering...Phenomenal work...Epic!

[@joshsmith9558]

Gabriel Davidson probably 1095 and 15n20, they give a really nice contrast and are pretty good steels for blades

[@aticuss]

Beautiful

[@patuki2010]

Nice i wish ihave one of those power hammers

[@akkadianLab]

Good job man

[@thomaschristopherwhite9043]

I just noticed that you have robots in the background.

[@deeblack9393]

Have you done any of the swords from The Wheel of Time series yet?

[@abusahra8509]

Hallo i have a question . Do you sell your swords or make swords for selling?

[@Max_Brugman]

heel netjes freerk!! volg je net een tijdje ziet er allemaal echt heel mooi uit! hoelang heb je over dit zwaard gedaan? groet max

[@freerkwieringa275]

Max Brugman ongeveer 7 dagen

[@ChriSto2]

it would be nice if you please could put some information in your next videos about how much time you spent on several working steps

[@see2323]

wow your amazing

[@Rajawarrior308]

Freerk! i want to be your apprentice, could it be possible

[@jakkwolf5677]

best sword ever

[@christophermcromer]

Amazing

[@LordAnestis]

I envy you dude.

[@predator4151]

Nice..

[@enesinan2192]

Soooooooo nice

[@mariohagedorn6534]

W U N D E R B A R !!!

[@deutzd301]

Eine wirklich schöne arbeit

[@RR-oe5zt]

You should make ice

[@connorstudulski8617]

Can you make this as a great sword I might be interested in buying it?

[@BFockink]

What have in those plastic pipes ?

[@rohan3946]

what happens if u quench in acid ?

[@sdkb24]

漂亮!!!!!!!!

[@bobhomayoon1921]

What is that white powder and what does it do ?

[@Cyriakx]

Dude, I want to do an internship to learn how to craft swords like that.

[@James2945]

Wow....

[@fernandomeneses4015]

Bello trabajo .una obra de arte

[@kknnddcc]

Hi, how long does this entire process take?

[@noahm5882]

Freerk I was wondering if you could make the Kubikiribōchō sword from Naruto.

[@freerkwieringa275]

thats big. maybe Michealcthulhu ?

[@user-jg5ki7rb4g]

Почему именно 432?!сколько максимально можно сделать слоев?!😶📻👊

[@freerkwieringa275]

it is a good level of layers, too much and you cant see them anymore.

[@user-jg5ki7rb4g]

Freerk Wieringa спасибо большое 😀 за прекрасное видио!!😁👍

[@TKDLION]

Very nice, though it shouldn’t be damascus since Dawn was not Valyrian steel.

[@alexanderstofer5145]

This beauty didn't appear in the TV-Series, right?

[@freerkwieringa275]

Alexander Stofer it did. In a vision of the 3 eyed raven

[@alexanderstofer5145]

Freerk Wieringa yes, I've seen it recently, but as a reader of the books I didn't recognize it as Dawn, since in the books it's described as a Greatwsord on his back (wich makes totally no sense!).

[@Oromanowar]

I would bet money that this sword is superior to the prop used for the actual fight sequence.

[@malcolmc.7288]

What is that powder?

[@pabloadunakor850]

what's the liquid used in 29:17?

[@markperacullo7541]

CAN YOU MAKE A DAMASCUS STYLE KUKRI OR KARAMBIT? :)

[@Vladd0r]

Any reason why you put Flux on a surface that isn't supposed to forge weld?

[@freerkwieringa275]

to keep it away from oxygen

[@Vladd0r]

Ah! thanks :)

[@JM-nf4rj]

Amazing work, as always! @Freerk Wieringa Unfortunately, Dawn was literally the biggest disappointment regarding weapon design in the Game of Thrones.. Escpecially the pommel head.. Look at Long Claw, or Oathkeeper or Widow's Wail.. And Dawn is by far the most legendary of them all.. And not only Valyrian steel, but from meteorite.. So that "sun" emblem looks pretty cheap on the design for something of this reputation..

[@freerkwieringa275]

i liked the realistic design. but it could have been more fantastic.

[@cmak4life]

Inb4 "it wasn't forged from a fallen star" comments

[@antena1.radio.388]

plis say to me.

[@berezza]

Make it from a meteor......

[@TheJefiel]

Do you forge for sales ?? I am very interested...

[@freerkwieringa275]

for prices: [e-mail]

[@Greg042869]

Nah, they straight poured it into a mold. Didn't you watch the show?

[@appleyanimator6541]

Oh, and you have to pour it very slowly in a mold parallel to the floor. Hollywood truly are the master smiths we all look up to.

[@connorstudulski8617]

Is there a way I can contact you via email

[@satevari_forge]

11:11 Very Hot! :p

[@antena1.radio.388]

you sale one sword ??

[@louiscypher2197]

I couldn't really enjoy the vid because of the guys constant chatter. Annoying!
