Knife Making - Forging a Viking Dagger

[@willy3177]

Design is similar to a viking spear head. Your vision and thinking outside the box is admirable.

[@MakerHA]

Thank you very much my friend 👍👍👍

Dude you should take a historical class on weapons that’s not a Viking knife lol but nice work atleast

[@cadenayers9253]

Agreed, but also 50% chance that he’s just throwing in random buzz words for the dreaded algorithm. Don’t exactly blame him if so.

[@MakerHA]

Thanks 👍👍👍

[@MakerHA]

Yes, if I don't add this, it won't deliver my video. Strong words tend to attract more attention 👍👍👍@@cadenayers9253

[@TheRyanlunt]

Using a word like "not a Viking" knife gets the keyword in too. Then nobody can find fault with your creation.

[@thadudelydude3707]

As a guy who's forfaders were vikings, I can confirm it's not a viking knife. However!: I really want that knife😂

Pretty Cool. Bet its heavy though. And that wire where it ends looks like it could cut your hand. Or at least make it uncomfortable. Love your hobby, just jealous I can't have go myself. Great Video though.

Theres nothing viking about it. But I do admire the workmanship.

[@MakerHA]

Thanks man 👍👍👍

[@OleDirtyMacSanchez]

@@MakerHA I find the Stirrup end interesting. I think you got too much of the Wood Handle into the Stirrup End. Slightly slimmer Wood Handle, not so fat, and a Seax Blade wood really make me Love it. Try making a 1 Handed Norse War Sword and a 2 Handed Norse Great Sword, 1 Handed War Axe and 2 Handed Great Axe, Spear, and 1 Handed War Hammer and 2 Handed Great Hammer. You could make Norse Flanged Mace too, but with Smith's Knives (just the Blades, being on a Mace they wouldn't need handles) in substitute of regular Flanges. Whodin deems this to be your Saga, and for the Honor of the JomsViking Moot.

[@MakerHA]

@@OleDirtyMacSanchez Yes, I'm about to make long swords. However, I still haven't been able to find a large container to make the tempering. But as soon as I can, I'll make swords too

[@OleDirtyMacSanchez]

@@MakerHA Do you have 1 of those 4 Foot tall Propane, Butane, or Natural Gas Tanks? Or 1 of those 4 Foot tall Oxy Acetylene Tanks, or a large Steel Drum?

[@OleDirtyMacSanchez]

@@MakerHA Cut 1 of the Tanks in half and Insta Quench Tank. Large Steel Drum, Cut the bottom out, then cut it in half, then Weld the 2 halves together, Weld water tight. Should give you 5 or 6 Feet. Fill it with water to see if it leaks, or use a small amount of Dish Soap. Apply Dish Soap to entire Weld line, look for bubbles. They use the Dish Soap Method at Custom Car Shops.

Not really Viking but still very cool !!!! I’d rock it on my side in the woods!!!!! And it does kinda look Viking ish enough never know Mabee a Viking did make one like that!! Knife making is from the heart man keep it up.

[@MakerHA]

Thank you my friend. A big hug for you 👍👍👍

[@ogi22]

I know I'm not a blacksmith. And I hope my question is not silly. But why are you holding your hammers near the head? I know that striking a hammer seems a very simple thing, but my grandpa tought me to use every advantage of the tool I have. And he tought me to hold a hammer at the end of the grip, so I can achieve the maximum impact force. I know it takes practice, but it makes you hit harder for much longer time with much lower effort 😊

[@MakerHA]

Yes he is right. However, for me this only applies when it comes to a light hammer. My sledgehammer is 4kg so if I held the end of the handle it would be very heavy to lift and that would hurt my wrist a lot, so I hold it closer to the head of the sledgehammer. 👍👍👍

[@ogi22]

@@MakerHA Yup, 4kg for one hand is a pretty big weight to swing it constantly 😁 There is one more trick I learned from a lot of blacksmith channes - kind of a "whip" action. You use the residual kinetic energy after a strike, to help hammer stand up, then you lift whole arm and swing it again straightening your wrist. I would be lying if I said I'm good at it. Takes a lot of focus to control this movement AND hit in the proper spot 😁 But we used similar thing in martial arts for kicking. After a few years of practice it becomes a second nature. Dang, you made me want to take out my torch and make a "pipe tamper" for my friend's pipe. I promised to make it a couple months ago. 😊

[@MakerHA]

😁😁😁 Yes, that helps a lot when the anvil is perfect. It serves as a spring that drives the hammer back, making body movement easier. My anvil is all dented and there's not much return, but it's still a technique that I also have to learn. 😁😁😁Yes, do it, you will enjoy doing it and he will love winning@@ogi22

[@OleDirtyMacSanchez]

@@ogi22 That's the way a Mace, War Hammer, and even a War Axe is supposed to be swung. The give it a flick principle, allows for quick follow up shots. Works with Fishing Poles too.

finde es schrecklich wenn ein teil auf 5 oder 6 millimeter geprügelt wird und dann wird ein messer draus geschliffen

[@cthulhurising8305]

Schlimm aber irgendwie in fast allen Videos so. Versteh ich nicht vorallem da die grobe Form zu schmieden einfacher ist als zu schleifen. Gibt aber leider nur sehr wenig die das machen. Frag mich immer nur warum se dann nich gleich nen 5 mm Flachstahl nehmen.
