[@psychopyro5781]

People say that you don't sound natural on camera, but your content is amazing. Awesome job!

[@jonathanstlawrence1132]

this guy is actually a genius with his vids

[@romanverdel]

you are the best in making tools

[@StevenEpicNation]

Those are some amazing looking arrowheads

[@tjsingh417]

I love this video. Ive seen this 1000 times

[@gogaqazi]

i really like your way of making arrowheads, it is so simple yet impressive. nice work mate.

[@mygrakat]

I'd like to see more videos on how to make arrow shafts with a router and also some more on how you make your forges. Thank you for all the videos that you make. I really enjoy them!

[@calebbranham523]

Very thorough job. Nice work.

[@spacesandshark2418]

I recently found your channel after Skallagrim put the link to one of your videos in a comment, and I'm really enjoying your content so far. Keep up the great work.

[@mtnman259]

FANTASTIC Video Nick ! ! ! !

[@robtoneguzzo7761]

Really good tutorial, easy to follow

[@ianruff6173]

I am always impressed by your videos and your friendly, helpful attitude. Thank you for these videos you are one of my favorite KZbin teachers!

[@TuckerSP2011]

That looks like one 'killa' arrowhead! Amazing.

[@neilyakuza6595]

Nice job Nick. Miss you on youtube.

[@millertalbot]

Great work Nick! I love the simple yet profound nature of what you do! Thanks...

[@diyturkiye976]

Your videos are awesome and give courage to forge iron.

[@Herzankerkreuz67]

You are a genius Nick ! Great work ! Like to have you around when society collapses...😁👍

[@NuManXplore]

Fascinating video! Great use of a cabbage!

[@Skinwalker_skinny]

Wow Nick! Those are great! A little "tip" for you. Forge a 4 sided tapered point on the far edge of the anvil and then flatten it out. To get more width on the point. flatten the point on the bias (diagonals) of the 4 sided taper. this will cut down grinding time and reduce wasted steel. This is the way I believe they were traditionally made due to the availability of steel in the middle ages. Keep at it and they'll only get better! Long taper: +sharpness -width Short taper: -sharpness +width

[@Skinwalker_skinny]

Also try clamping the mandrel in a vice!

[@BackyardBowyer]

+The Blazing Bodkin Forge Thank you for the kind words and the tip. I'll give that a try tomorrow!

[@Skinwalker_skinny]

+BackyardBowyer My video equipment is trash but I will try to make a video (maybe a series) on all kinds of arrowheads! I may even throw in a video on forging a pair of tongs for holding arrowhead sockets. If you want to pursue smithing, I highly recommend you learn to forge tongs. they're like paint brushes to an artist. used for all specific applications and you can never have too many ;)

[@caveymoley]

Evan... Did you ever do that arrowhead series?

[@neanderthaloutdoors9202]

Very nicely done, atb, Paul.

[@misteragb7558]

I imagined it would be far more complicated, thanks for this video!

[@tiberiu_nicolae]

This is seriously awesome!

[@kristinagrace3893]

I lost it at the cabbage!

[@zenmastermtl]

+Kristina Grace MY CABBAGES!

[@democratichoneybadger6356]

+Kristina Grace my cousins and i had a thing i was younger and they were the elements so they made element necklaces like fire and earth and thay made me a cabbage one

[@kristinagrace3893]

+Chill Gaming That's brilliant, haha! Unleash the cabbage powers!

[@alexnorton]

Since we can't get schedule 40 pvc in Australia, I'd love to see you do a video where you double-sleeve thinner-walled PVC to make a bow!

[@ottovombaum2993]

Nice Job Nik! Thanks for upload! You make good arrowheads - for real!!! My compliment! Regards from Germany :-)

[@BackyardBowyer]

+Otto Motto Thank you!

[@mr-inka]

Love your videos. Sadly i live in a city now and I don't really have a place to work on stuff like that now...

[@TimPiatek]

Hey Nick, let's see a broadhead with a tang instead of a ferrule :)

[@oldcutler100]

Man u r a genius. u should try and sell them. I saw a movie Robin hood with Kevin Cosner, and the guys made a mold and poured the hot metal in it to make the arrow heads, pretty cool. Great video

[@luay2805]

So awesome

[@bradleyburns6104]

great video, yet again, might have to try this one :D

[@fishermenunite]

You should make a traditional Hawaiian arrowhead but out of steel. That would be so cool.

[@ThomasWilts98]

awesome arrowhead!!! i really enjoy your videos! and also i would like to try this style of broadhead for my atlatl darts

[@redlionforge9173]

That’s the same anvil I started on! Lol

[@htcprepping]

How did you learn this stuff? Who helped you with book publishing? Great work as always

[@pepepepito7824]

can you make a ballista big one

[@mozartpaiva1]

Thanks!

[@campbellpaul]

That is really awesome. Have you tried tempering them, or would that be an unnecessary step in regards of their purpose?

[@PathinAZ]

Nice!

[@undeadclowns2499]

I think it would be cool if u can make a bronze arrowhead!

[@floppinfish]

I liked this video

[@Bigtdill9]

Do a video on how you made this forge. I would like to see how you made it.

[@officialastrojw474]

I love the videos dude. So interesting to watch. :)))

[@alexrocharamos2908]

Ficou top bom trabalho.

[@RocketteJam]

So cool...can u show us how u make the Malay Keris in future?

[@servicecheifxl3516]

i love your vids keep it up man! i ur my favourite youtuber! :)

[@wayneandrews1278]

Great video keeps make video

[@ianselga1]

hey Nick, where do you get your fletching?

[@DanteYewToob]

Lol That hot glue thing made an image pop into my head.... A knight frantically running down a long castle hall, the sounds of death and chaos echo all around him as he pants and keeps hold of an arm dripping with blood... He reaches a door inscribed with many symbols he neither knows nor cares for, as he clambers in struggling to keep his footing.. He raises his bow and empty quiver and shouts "GREAT WIZARD! We're being slaughtered out there, can you not prepare us more arrows with your mighty magical sap dispenser?! Has the tree of life run dry!? We're doooomed. doooooomed.... wait what? You found a stick? Where? Oh it rolled under your desk? Thank God, were saved! The kingdom shan't fall this day. What is this mighty magic substance called dear wizard may our children sing of it for eternity? .... Hot... Glue. ? Hmm.... TIS HOT GLUE THAT SAVED THE DAY MADE THE FIENDS ALL RUN AWAY WE SAW OUR DOOM, BUT IN THIS ROOM WAS HOT GLUE THAT MISSED THE BROOM. YES HOT GLUE SAVED THE DAAAAAAY." the end.

[@garrisonbates9159]

You should make a throwing star.

[@paulpritchard1980]

Another excellent tutorial thanks Nick. Can you make A crossbow That shoots ball bearings Preferably marble sized. Or maybe Sling bow arrows do a lot of damage but rocks and marbles are cheap just a thought.

[@danielmorris9803]

Thank-You Great Video... Do Some Spoon Arrow Heads Please And Thank-You From Britain

[@thaddeus9475]

for your next knifemaking video could you make a BALISONG!

[@svent1000]

Nice. 👍

[@wpchang9780]

Awesome

[@ThePointlessBox_]

Just noticed I have the same bow you used in this video

[@locke9613]

Sweet ass video, what cheaper style of wood would you recommend to use as shafts?

[@12Gage147]

Can you do a shortbow tutorial video if you haven't already?

[@weardiwo]

Interesting vid ^-^

[@da4ntje]

nice videos, inspiration : a kunai of naruto (trowing knife)

[@MYCHANNEL7957]

Hey! I was wondering how you get the taper on your rebar to fit the socket of your arrowheads? Thanks!

[@cheifawesome4709]

Hey, thats pretty cool. Why don't you make a 3 blade broadhead, or a judo point?

[@terrapin52]

Do measure and choose the spine of your arrows based on draw weight?

[@alexsplattstoesser6034]

Awesome vid you should try to make a Dane axe head

[@tylerplatten3982]

Hay bro not bad but try grinding the edges steeper that will offer less residents and they should penetrate deeper

[@robertbeverly1508]

Do you find that the un-welded socket/hot melt glue stands up under use now that you've had these for awhile?

[@greekveteran2715]

Keep it hotter when you hammer on it. It will make things work faster and you will avoid metal cracking.

[@lacimarkovics2267]

wery cool !

[@CrissRosenlof]

Nick, do you have a shaft cutter, or do you buy your shafts pre-made?

[@kadenwhiteaker]

Damn, Grant Thompson rest in peace...

[@sethfishing1]

You should show how to make blowgun broad head darts

[@yaraslaubatanau8811]

Hi Nick, great video, just a quick question, what kind of glue do you use to secure the broadhead to the shaft? also, would you recommend epoxy as a substitute? Thanks!

[@tylerstandley2018]

Do you think you can make a bronze/copper dagger?

[@Christos1680]

it would be awesome to make barbed fork tip arrow heads for bow fishing

[@rasnac]

You should forge a sword. Nothing fancy, just a one handed short sword as a sidearm for an archer ;)

[@complexion235]

i want it I WANT IT NOW

[@ramennefer4917]

is this good for compound bows?

[@IAmACrab2020]

hey dude how did you make the arrow shafts?
