In this video I'm showing how I made a Victorian inspired scissors with blades that go in the wrong direction.

better question is why not?

[@SatanSupimpa]

"Why not?" is a very important part of the creative process. The dislikes are probably from people who can't understand this.

[@xiaoxingchen243]

are probably fingers

[@christophersavignon4191]

Asking the question honestly requires an open mind for the quite obvious answer. Just a little hint, don't go assuming motive. It will backfire most of the time. Some might even add a dislike just to spite you. If "Why not" is a reason to make these scissors, then it is also a perfectly good reason to downvote the video. But you didn't understand that, did you...

[@christophersavignon4191]

@Objective Truth Haha, yeah. Not a great fan of that reddit, but his "Y'all haters don't understand the creative process!" line is a perfect fit.

I think what backwards scissors are is just called scotch tape here.

The same concept, just different color xD

[@wolfnation100]

then what would these be? the blades are backwards so they're still backwards scissors lol

have you ever been doing something with one hand and realized "wow! my nails on my non dominant hand are getting long, and i want to cut them, but only have 1 hand available at the moment!"? thats why i want you to make nail clippers that clip the nails of the hand thats holding it

[@johnparker2350]

I only have one hand. I would buy such an item.

[@samiam7]

My dude, you need a scroll saw in the worst possible way. I would contribute to the fund

[@humphrey7079]

Sam I Am he should buy a paint shaker and put the hand saw in it and bam instant electric saw

[@MikolajTheCat]

I have a feeling he likes doing it "old fashioned." I'm the same way, I just like doing it all "by hand" even though it's harder and more tedious.

[@samiam7]

John Szczes yeah I realized that as quick as I wrote it lol

[@FrigginBoomToys]

I agree, there are also engraving tools he could use, but doesn't.

[@Grizzydan]

Agreed with others. There's just this intimacy you get with hand tools that you don't find any other way. However it would be nice with some of the less intricate more tedious work to get it done faster.

[@macf4426]

What a oddly wonderful project. Your skills as a craftsman and an artist are perfectly suited to someone with your awesome imagination, I would never have thought of such a thing as backwards scissors. Another great project that produced a beautiful finished piece. I never tire of your videos and your choice of projects, and they always leave me eager to see what you will come up with next. Keep up the good work Uri 👍

[@macf4426]

...Oh and I loved the thumb gag too 😀

My absolute favourite channel right now. Awesome. Really liked the black wash on the handle

[@MusicThatILike234454]

You are my hero... your contraptions are both absurd and glorious, please continue making them!

[@ElectricGears]

Generic steel that you get at the hardware store is mild (low-carbon) and can not be hardened through simple heat treatment. It does not have enough carbon to produce the deformed crystal structure that results in greater hardness. They can be case hardened by heating in the absence of oxygen while packed with charcoal. This dissolves some carbon into the surface of the steel and raises it above the critical concentration. In fact, case hardening can often be superior than starting with high-carbon tool steel because parts retain some flexibility from the soft core, but can have a durable edge. See Clickspring's video kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJCwoWScg998ipo

[@urituchmanpigeon]

ElectricGears thanks for the in depth and informative comment! Somehow I thought, hey, if there's less carbon in the steel than I'll just get a lower amount of hardness, clearly that's not how metallurgy works. I didn't know that you can produce high carbon steel with arguably simple methods, that is the coolest thing!

[@peetiegonzalez1845]

Chris over at Clickspring has some good tutorials on case hardening. I actually think you guys should do a collab at some point. your work is similar but his is extremely detail oriented and yours seems to have more artistic input. Check out the Clickspring channel when you have time.

[@urituchmanpigeon]

Unsurprisingly Chris is my absolute guru, he's the reason why I even dare to try and make certain things. however, as you mentioned, we approach things very differently, i.e. he knows what he's doing ;). Apparently his case hardening video completely flew over my head. he just keeps on blowing me away.

[@peetiegonzalez1845]

Uri Tuchman haha. Likewise. I did refer him to your vids and he said “Love that channel btw”, so you’re obviously doing something right :)

[@ianpike9866]

[@Gunninghunni]

what a cool concept lol, and love the funky music.

[@JR-qz3zt]

I love this guy. He's a genius! I keep thinking that his projects would go so much faster with power tools. Then I stop, and remind myself, I wouldn't be as impressed and it would ruin this pure art. This is true art!! Not a copy of someone else's idea. It's art in its purest form. I'm highly jealous of the talent. I could make a reproduction of it. The talent to me is the original idea. The hand work, oh, trust me, it blows my mind. It takes hours. And if you mess up.... ugh. I know. But I use mostly power tools for my art.

[@ValleyOfWillows]

For a moment, my heart stopped when the finger was cut.

[@paulcooper2897]

[@seonaelizabethcoster8465]

I've just stumbled upon your channel, and I'm going to binge-watch everything. I have to say, after the first 2 minutes of this video, I'm hooked. I've absolutely subscribed. And while I know that these are a sort of 'joke' creation, I can actually see how a pair of these scissors could be really practical. If you made them with the blades coming out at the 90° angle that they leave the handle part instead of curving them back around, I think you could make a pretty awesome set of sewing/tailoring scissors. They'd make the process of cutting an even hem easier, that's for sure!

A very neat little piece. Elegant and impractical. The only way you could harden mild steel would probably be case hardening, but then you only harden a thin layer on the surface of the steel.

The term you’re looking for is “mild steel”. There is a way to “case harden” the steel it adds carbon to the mild steel. You can improve the steel.
