Thanks for watching! If you have any questions please post or just say hello!

[@Br33zyAus]

All your builds are flawless works of art. Really like the talking throughout the video unlike most makers just playing a stock beat, the extra effort doesn't go unnoticed and i appreciate it. cheers from Australia.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend, that means a lot! 🙂

[@leetucker9938]

wow , lots of science engineering and a beautiful knife

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend. 🙂

[@Little_River_Forge]

I was expecting a nice piece because I’ve seen your work in person, but buddy that was a slick little Bowie. It’s hard to tell how it’s going to come out because you’re so modest. Very well done.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate the kind words. And thanks for watching! 🙂

[@outlawbladesandleather]

Fantastic work as always Tony! Give Bubba a high five for me. Cheers Brother!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you sir! Most definitely! 😁

[@richardbranton190]

I seen bubba out by the creek I think he was trying to catch some crawfish but he was using a castnet. I think he thought he was shrimping LOL

[@TonySeverioKnives]

@richardbranton190 lol if it can be done backwards, he will do it. 😁

[@dalev2842]

Even your early work 25 years ago was really nice. But this is just on another level dude... The amount of time and effort that goes into such a creation is staggering. You don't know what it takes until you've tried it. And there's no A/C in that shop either! LOL!!!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks brother. It’s a continuous learning process for sure. You need to come see me! 😁

[@dalev2842]

@@TonySeverioKnives we going to do that soon!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

@dalev2842 sounds good!

[@sdunca4864]

Thats a rabbit worth chasing my friend! As always- Bravo- and good to see the process and the results! Have a great time in Atlanta- and look forward to whats next!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you! Thanks for watching my friend and I hope to have a great time. 🙂

[@landroveraddict2457]

For someone who's in a hurry. You make a mighty fine knife. I love all the detail you added and the blade pattern is awesome.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you sir. 🙂

[@michaelmorrison4843]

As always, a beautiful job! Love the look of the Damascus blade! 🤔👍😁

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend 🙂

[@S.Vallieres]

Gorgeous knife Tony and really nice video showing its building process!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend 🙂

[@checoleman8877]

That pattern turned out nice!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you sir!

[@richardbranton190]

Beautiful work as always my friend I'll see you at blade show 👍

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you sir!!

[@RedBeardOps]

Awesome work as always sir! I love watching you work. 10:34 sounds like a good application for having reverse on the belt. I need to learn how to TIG....

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks brother! Yes reverse is the way to go. Thanks for watching my friend.

[@DONJUILIO]

I really love that pattern. As always beautiful work sir.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you, I appreciate it! 🙂

[@MASI_forging]

Such talent and skill. This knife looks beautiful 👏👏

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend. 🙂

[@norcalbowhunter3264]

Beautiful knife you made. I wish all my hurry jobs turned out this nicely :P

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you! 😁😁

[@vikinghandmade9609]

Top 🔝 number one ☝️

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks!

[@Labrador_Forge]

That turned out really nice!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend. 🙂

[@JamesMPogue]

A really beautiful knife. I love your work.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks James, I appreciate it!

[@lancemillward1912]

Would love to see a sheath made to match.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Going to try to get a vid on it. 🙂

[@cseverio]

That is one sick blade!! I love it

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you!!

[@MarkBirchard-gy8ly]

WOW!!!!🎉🎉

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks! 🙂🙂

[@justingoodman5600]

Beautiful blade Mr Tony! I’ve never heard of a Texas wind pattern, but I’m from Georgia 😊. Really turned out great. Good luck on your test, I’m pretty sure you will ace it

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you! I guess someone from Texas came up with it who knows. 😂😁

[@TonySeverioKnives]

And thanks! I’m nervous already. 😁

[@michaelstrauss6587]

Yippie Aye O Kye Aye!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

🙂😂

[@familykarr4325]

Beautiful work! Is there any way to make that pattern without the die?

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks! You could possibly cut it in I guess.

[@GlennInLaguna]

Great video Tony! If you have a grinder that reversed couldn’t you do the false edge safely?

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks. Yes, then in the horizontal position it would not be risky. I still do it but I’ve done it many years. I wasn’t going to show that in the vid though. 🙂

[@Babymoonblades]

Any particular reason you go in your press at an angle to start off?

[@TonySeverioKnives]

More surface area gets pressed at one time.

[@Babymoonblades]

@@TonySeverioKnives makes sense. I’ve got 4x10 flat dies in mine so it doesn’t really matter for me. I was a little lost on what you were doing. Thanks!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

@Babymoonblades That’s it. 🙂
