Making a sword from an old spring. Many sword are forged from a chain or from a bearing, but since I don't have a forge, my choice fell on a spring. This production of swords differs from the traditional as well as the design itself.
First, heating the spring in the fire, I making it flat and at the same time relieved the stress from the steel. This will later help me shape the contours of the sword more easily.
First, on a sheet of paper, I drew the outlines of a sword and transferred it to a metal blank using spray paint.
I cut out the shape of the sword with an angle grinder.
After which I started rough sanding on a belt sander and turned the strip into a long piece of steel in the shape of a sword.
I made the guard using a thick piece of brass. I cut it to size with a tape machine and machined a guard with a drilling machine.
I hardened the sword in oil. I made the release of the metal after hardening in oil heated over a fire, but unfortunately this part of the video was lost by me.
For the manufacture of the sword handle, I used wood, which I first glued together, and then formed the handle itself on a grinding machine.
