Bravo Teacher, Bravo.

[@MakerHA]

Thanks my friend 👍👍👍

[@workshopredraven]

Великолепная работа мой друг! Этот нож напоминает мне наконечник копья у которого укоротили деревянную часть. Выглядит превосходно! Жму руку!🤝

[@MakerHA]

Спасибо, мой друг. Да, его еще можно сделать и запустить, только поменяй рукоятку и будет невероятное копье. 👍👍👍

[@samcahoon7078]

I like the Re-purposed broken spear head look. Well done 😎

Bati o olho na parede de tijolo e já ví que era brasileiro, ótimo vídeo!

Hahaha a clássica casa brasileira. Muito obrigado meu amigo 👍👍👍

I know. You probably didn't have any leather laces at the time, but that's what you should be using right now. Not as shoelace from a sneaker, but some black leather lace or brown leather. It'll be much better for the knife. And the last a lot longer than cotton shoelaces. Don't you take this advice and take the cotton? Or polyester shoelaces off and get some leather shoelaces and put it on there. It's much better. It looks much better and it'll last a lot longer.

[@MakerHA]

Yes, the leather ones will be much more durable. But where I live it's very difficult to buy leather. Only online, which is also very expensive. But I'd swap them for leather without a second thought 👍👍👍

Com toda essa massa de aço imaginei alguns javalis africanos invasores sendo lateralmente abertos de uma só passada no lugar das garrafas, mais uma bela peça. Uma fresa (lima rotativa) de tungstênio lhe ajudaria bastante nessa retífica, estão com ótimos preços no Aliexpress.

[@MakerHA]

Muito obrigado meu amigo, vou ar uma olhada lá, estou pra comprar algumas dessas limas para usar, acredito também que facilitara muito 👍👍👍

[@Someone-hx1lc]

I like how you made it look like a broken off spear head that got repurposed.

[@MakerHA]

Yes, she looks like one 👍👍👍

[@peterjmcgee4680]

And that actually looks more like it would be better off than a knife. A spearhead. Come to think of it if you were to made that maybe 3 inches longer that same design, but 3 inches longer. That would be an excellent spearhead. I'm using a nice long piece of oak as the shift.Just think about it, that would be one Hell of a spear. And I'd buy something like that. Just think about it.

[@MakerHA]

Yes, it would be a very good spear. Because it's shaped like a spear. 👍👍👍

Hi 👋 there bro? I'm thinking if you can put your makers mark someday. Nice job 👏

[@MakerHA]

Hello my friend, yes I'm still going to put it on, I'm going to have mine made soon. I believe that next year I will start making knives with my logo 👍👍👍

[@citizenVader]

BTW, sorry, I haven't been watching your work lately. Had to undergo some skincare and treatment at the hospital here in my county or the Viborg Oblast hehe (that's in Denmark' and not,wyborg Russia). The physician here is Ukrainian, so I was in good hands, and I already recovered more than 80 % of my infection..

[@MakerHA]

Oh my friend, no problem. I'm glad you're recovering, I hope you get better as soon as possible. Stay with God and take care of yourself, a big hug. 👍👍👍

Make a boar spear, chop off the handle. Basically. Reminded me of Jack Black in the movie Year One, when Marlak broke his spear

I request you to make Kukri knife

[@MakerHA]

I can do this 👍👍👍

[@citizenVader]

Absolutely beautiful.. have you ever considered putting some of your hard wood in a closed empty paint bucket with a cup of ammonia? If you keep the fumes in the bucket with a little vacuum by warping the lid so you press some air out, it'll be the best result. It's an easy way to "simulate smoked wood," and it blackens wood types like beach and oak. The longer you keep the wood under vacuum, the deeper the wood will blacken.. looks and weighs like ebony. You can experiment with different types of wood or treeroots, which is actually the best and gives a durable handle.

[@citizenVader]

Of course, the wood will smell like the worst after the treatment, but it's fumes and will disappear. The colour stays and looks good with a thin oil layer to harden the wood even more. It's just a matter of timing.

[@MakerHA]

Thank you my friend. I've never tried, but I'll try. The hardest thing for me would be getting the vacuum done. This process looks very similar to stabilized wood. Would it work with different color dyes? I am going to try 👍👍👍

[@MakerHA]

I understand, so this process would be more to give resistance to the wood@@citizenVader

[@citizenVader]

@MakerHA it serves to colour the wood into the core and looks more natural. The thing about wood is its fibres are like small pumps pushing water from the roots to the leaves and into our air. You just replicate the process on a small scale, with chemicals instead of water, the fibres work despite less of using a fluid chemical. The reason for the cup is just to have a good feeling of how much the wood is absorbing, but it only works in a closed container like a tin bucket or a big glass jar you can close. You don't need a vacuum system, but it's better for the process to work, that it is filled with the fumes from the ammonia. So you only need to make sure the process will have time to push the oxygen out of the system. I just close the container lightly, and the ammonia does the rest of the work slowly inside the jar or what you use to seal the wood in. Some people just put it in a plastic bag and let it work for whatever time it takes. It's the difference in wood fibres that determine how fast or slow the process is.. Pine for example have large fibres and that's what makes it light and easy to break, whereas hardwood have more compact fibres and more density in the material. So it's best to have the containers in a ventilated place like the garage or a storage room or you might get a headache from inhaling ammonia. I don't rush these things because it's up to the single pieces how much and how much they absorbed. It's a good way to remove the rest of the moisture in the wood too, so that decay stops. So you kinda kill a lot of birds with one stone by preserving it like that. I just finish with oil because I prefer oil. The wood already has small amounts of oil naturally, so it doesn't get rotten. You actually just manipulate the wood to do what it does to begin with, but just with chemicals inside the fibres.

[@MakerHA]

I understand. This process is very interesting. I will definitely try to make it, as I only use hardwood, . So I believe the results will be much better. Could I find a video here on KZbin about it?@@citizenVader

[@daviddingus8575]

Awesome work buddy. ? What do you quench your leaf spring blades in and what temp is it

[@MakerHA]

Thanks my friend. Normally it's in the forge itself, I have no idea what the temperature is, but the time depends on the color, I always take it out of the forge and observe its color, when it starts to turn golden it's already at the ''ideal point''. ' I remove it and let it cool slowly. To give you an idea, more or less, this takes about 5 minutes, or something close to that. I recommend doing it in a temperature-controlled oven with a timer. I even have one here, but as I have limited time to make the knives, film, edit and make it work in the end, I speed up the process in the forge itself.👍👍👍

[@daviddingus8575]

@@MakerHA I was asking about the oil and temperature of the oil before you quench I myself go on the color of the steel I also use my forge as well

[@MakerHA]

Oh yes, I'm sorry. The oil I use is burnt car engine oil. Its temperature is now room temperature. As here in Brazil the climate is hotter, I believe the oil is around 86F. But I don't heat it, because at room temperature I get a greater heat exchange when tempering. @@daviddingus8575

Tracing a knife design on a piece of metal, then using modern-day tools to cut the piecel into a knife is not forging. I usually dont watch these types of videos.

I didn't like the dagger handle it's too round and the guard looks like it would take chunks out of your finhers. Plus Vikings never made handles like this not to my knowledge

Очень плохо гасить моторным маслом, оно очень токсично. Кроме того, я не вижу, чтобы вы нагревали масло до 60° перед закалкой, а это означает, что вы выполняете холодную закалку, что вредно для вашего клинка. ( Google trade )

[@MakerHA]

У меня никогда не было проблем с температурой сгоревшего масла. Что касается предварительного нагрева, то при закалке это не имеет большого значения, потому что, если у меня будет более низкая температура на лезвии, эффект будет тот же. Цель состоит в том, чтобы быстро охладить его, и иметь хорошее лезвие - это хорошая закалка. 👍👍👍
