Your devotion to getting your blades to a mirror polish is incredible! Also your sculpting is impressive! Thanks for showing this build off!

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you very much!

[@micah06v8]

Beautiful knife. I love the color of the handle. Very nice job on the eagle as well. You really got to get some tongs before you burn your fingers off! 😱

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks! I guess I have to forge some this summer 😄

Song at 11:16 is Rambutan - Some Thing Also love your work, your edits and craftsmanship are amazing!

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks a lot! That song has been on the list for a while. I was just waiting for something that stinks 😂

[@raziel3726]

Amazing Craftsmanship 👍🏽👍🏻👍

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!

[@CoMpoZeD1]

Looking beautiful as always! And the knife,too 😏

That is one beautiful looking knife I'm always excited to see that you have uploaded 😊

Great build as always! Awesome job with the casting too 😁👍🏽

Thank you! My casting certainly has some room for improvements 😄

Dont know if you’ll she this but thank you so much for the chainmail videos from the other channel I’m making a vest and it’s gonna look awesom

[@NjordArtisan]

That sounds great, I love to hear that 🙌

[@christianholloway1536]

Its an honor to be here early and see your channel grow. Keep making awesome stuff and you'll hit 100k in no time. I assumed your channel was a lot bigger just from the quality of your vids.

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks for the kind words! I’ll keep at it 🙌

[@bradleycairns908]

Beautiful work, sir! Love the blade design as well. Unique and very well thought out🔥⚒️👍😊

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!

[@chrisdinger5100]

even with all the accidents during the build, your knife still came out beyond beautiful.

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!!

[@breakinglegsandbreakinghea3167]

This might be the only time I've seen resin and wood look good together.

[@NjordArtisan]

Resin + wood often look weird, I agree but stabilized wood always looks amazing 🤩

[@breakinglegsandbreakinghea3167]

@@NjordArtisan yeah, like DIY "river tables" were massive on KZbin and then came a wave of people with lathes make things from wood encased in resin or using resin to fill in holes and rot. But it quickly grew tiresome and cheap looking. There's a channel in particular that frustrated me. He exclusively makes black resin and wood tables that look basic and cheap. He polished them well and sells them for thousands. It's shocking.

This looks incredible

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks!

[@Skorgriim]

I love these videos. Love the entertaining style with a gorgeous, professional finish. Unique and fun, always with an amazing result. You deserve more subs, mate.

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks! I really appreciate that 🙌🙌

[@maxlee9986]

Loved this vid, great editing in this one and the knife looks awesome.

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!

[@m.ubaidaadam]

excellent video Njord! i wonder if you might experiment with a little bit of inlay or play around with Damascus for a future project?

[@NjordArtisan]

Definitely both!

[@YourTypicalChannel]

man this turned out sick! didn't think it would turn out this good. great work and keep making videos!

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!! 🙌

[@DrewProductions6]

thanks for another video! you really inspire me to make more knives!

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks and that’s great to hear! Definitely the best hobby out there 😄

[@pawekozielski2422]

:) I'm always stressed with gluing too, if I'm connecting non-standard connections. I'm actually surprised that the diagonal joints turned out so well. Nice work. Greetings to the girl. Did she feed you at work? :)

[@NjordArtisan]

Yeah I won’t do it like this again 😄 She always does! And greeting back to you aswell 🙌

[@monitorcrazy9639]

You should make like an aztec designed blade, it would be sick

[@Lexrockstheblock]

Excellent video pacing, surprised I hadn't seen your videos before

[@3dwrecker_4660]

Second comment cause I only just had time to fully watch the video! I could make you a pair of tongs at school if you'd like, only trouble with that though is actually getting them to you lol. Just some food for thought. Great puukko though, I'm going to have to actually get back into making knives (I've only made one and that was a sharp piece of mild steel flat bar). Also what was the sound track you used at the end of your Dagger Challenge video? Been looking for that track for ages, but I can't find it.

[@NjordArtisan]

Guess I’m a bit late to your comment 😄

[@3dwrecker_4660]

@@NjordArtisan Haha no problem mate.

[@3dwrecker_4660]

:O PUUKKO!!!

[@Earthenfist]

Hope you're catching that silver that you're sanding off. Always best to do as much of the shaping in the pre-cast instead of just making a general shape. Funny thing about casting- you basically have to just DUMP the metal into the mold, because every second you spend pouring is a second it's cooling down.

[@NjordArtisan]

Yeah I learned that the hard way 😄 in part 2 next week it‘ll be even more apparent 😄 It’s just called german/new/nickel silver because of the color. It’s just an alloy and not actually silver. But it’s still pretty expensive so I did my best to catch as much as I could

[@Crowtistic]

i love your work and i love your videos, but i hate that i laughed at the mohawk joke 🤣

[@NjordArtisan]

😂😂

[@tw4231]

I was thinking that a feather damascus pattern would go well with the eagle head.

[@NjordArtisan]

Oh yeah! Guess I have to do that again in the future 😄

[@joshuawallace9771]

Wow that’s an amazing knife

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!

[@Pippippipvk]

"Does look like an eagle, but after he had a very bad excident." Well looks like your Facial reconstructions skills have risen after you fixed his head up ^^. Great Video as always and are you thinking of taking on comissions in the future? Cause I'd be happy to have such a nice knife :)

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks a lot! I was planning to start selling knives next year. Not sure about commissions yet though 🤔

[@kevlarandchrome]

That came out quite nicely. Did the ratcheting fastener for the pommel end up working out all right? It looked like you had some difficulty getting it to click in the way you wanted it to during assembly.

[@NjordArtisan]

I think it ended up binding because it was slightly pushing where I didn’t want it to be 😄 That said, I wouldn’t do this again, at least not like this 😄

man sick vid, i really love your content, wish one day i could get onto doing things just as much cool myself 🔥💯

[@NjordArtisan]

Thank you!! I can definitely recommend trying! I can just say that I made my first knives with just a file and slowly build my toolset from there. Given I’m lucky to have a supportive father who helped me build the more expensive machines later on

[@christianautilus374]

@@NjordArtisan i tried bro i tried, but as unfortunatelly as it sounds my household conditions arent sufficient for building anything realistically, and as much as id love to, its imposibble for me to afford a working ground like a garage or smth, but im dreamin big so who knows given enought patience somewhere in the future i might be able to get myself someplace to dwell with all my ambitions 😉

[@tinker-benny2788]

Nice Video as always ... they keep getting better and better 😊 ... do you want to try to make a collab sometime? 😊 I could show you how to forge tongs😅

[@NjordArtisan]

Thanks! And thanks for the offer 😄 I guess I really have to make some now

[@exlorvalor116]

Can't believe I willingly subjected myself to a raid shadowlegends ad just to give you money. I hope you realize how many brain cells I sacrificed.

[@NjordArtisan]

I highly appreciate your sacrifice 🙏

[@de_order703]

May I suggest some bloodborne trick weapon builds . Honestly maybe start with something simpler like the mantis blade from Elden ring as it has a cool idea and is not overly complicated like those in bloodborne

[@invincible8115]

So I was today's year old when i found out that beech wood doesnt come from wood that was drifted to the shore of a beach.

Question: How much silver do you think you ended up losing as you were forging and grinding it to shape? Also, as always, amazing job ❤✌🏻

When your tongs break 5 hits into the beginning of your project but you're making a video and have to push through anyway 🥲

[@NjordArtisan]

Yeah! 😄 But now that it’s gone I finally have no more excuses to not get or make a proper one
