I Forged My Own Chef's Knife

[@joshualiford4227]

You’re seriously the most creative of the KZbin chefs. I love how you’re creating content and just having fun with it. I’ve even seen a few of the really big guys start following your ideas. Keep doing you man. I love the content your producing.

[@AdamWitt]

Thank you man, that means a lot. I appreciate you tuning in.

[@joshis138]

This is great. I started watching your cooking videos, then came across my other passion for learning blacksmithing. The knife looks amazing

[@AdamWitt]

Thanks man! Yeah he's really talented. I use that knife often.

[@shaneedwards367]

You are freaking awesome man. I hope your channel blows up 🔝

[@AdamWitt]

Gracias, Shane!

[@justinkhanna]

As if that blade profile wasn't sick enough, great handle choice dude! Such a fun vid 🔪

[@AdamWitt]

Thanks Justin.

[@dee_dee_place]

@@AdamWitt Did Max make the handle to fit your grip specifically?

[@TaFeiYen]

This is sick!!!!!!!! Love it so much

[@swerdbag0414]

Wow, that came out sick.

[@dutchsmith7375]

Did he burn his thumb at 2:03?

[@wardrumforge]

I cut the whole pad off while hand sanding 😅

[@TheAtlasKerr]

Do you know what kind of steel he used? 52100?

[@AdamWitt]

That's a Max question. I know it's San Mai.

[@wardrumforge]

15n20 & 1095 But I did just finish a other one out of straight 52100

[@fixedfuji]

What is the core steel, O1? What is the final hardness after temper?

[@wardrumforge]

15n20 with 1095 core. Didn't get a chance to throw it on a rockwell. Hardness files put it right around 60.

[@tommanning7337]

That’s soooooo kick ass!!!! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 he’s local? Where is he from? I’m really interested. Oh never mind he’s a Naperville awesome !!!!!!

[@AdamWitt]

He's a beast - wardrumforge.com/

[@einundsiebenziger5488]

Why make a new knife and have it look like one from a scrap yard? And what purpose does the hump on the back of the blade serve?

[@thugbunny292]

Damnnnnn adam! Ive heard of monogramed but you went ahead and birthed the whole thing. 😂❤🎉

[@AdamWitt]

chyeeeee

[@TheBlackfire218]

Sheeesh

[@MrBill-ee4mr]

He soaked his handle in acid? 😂 lmfao, this guy cant be serious

[@Boogie3D]

When I see somebody using epoxy without gloves it sends shivers down my spine. This guy will get epoxy allergy.

[@noneyabidness9644]

Don't ever watch me work, then. I do angle grinding using bare hands, despite having clamps typically no more than feet away. 😂🤣

[@Boogie3D]

​@@noneyabidness9644epoxy is a totally different thing. You can be lucky all your life while grinding, but with epoxy you will get allergy sooner or later (sometimes you get it after a couple of times, sometimes after many years). When you keep on working with it despite the allergy, you can get to a stage when you basically can't hold a part that was glued with it without getting an allergy reaction.
