[@marcushaynes843]

Was that a moose's antler that you made the handle out of?

[@carlkeim6134]

Great work, a falcata would be cool

[@arkanatsaqib626]

That so hard steel...hammer by hand...hmmm...must combine by mechines..

[@jdhull37]

Ive seen this person make MANY blades but I have to admit, this is probably one of the best, most clean looking blades I have seen come out of that shop.

[@gdjohny]

WOW. one of the coolest and most beautifull blades i have ever seen !!

[@fz-makingknives3663]

Thanks

[@patriotth1453]

G L A D I V S + _Valyrian Steel_ = *T A R G A R Y A N O F R O M E* Beautiful work.

[@Humbug-ge6ne]

The wootz damascus is by far the most alluring and beautiful fabric of all -- far more attractive than any of the folded and figured steel

[@RandomHands]

Your Bevel Symmetry is really appreciate-able.

[@fz-makingknives3663]

[@Pablo668]

Now that's a lovely piece of wrok. Well done. I'd need all kinds of jigs to grind in those angles on the blade.

[@Semerich_Knives]

Тут лайкос автоматом идет!👍

[@rickhambric9737]

The density of wootz vs normal laminations continues to astound me. Just the sound of hammer strikes you can hear the difference.

[@АзаматУэтлев]

Super

[@paullmight42]

[@demonrosario5398]

Wootz steel balisong would be epic

Thanks 👍

[@Jasontrower-rundle]

would you deliver a blade without handle/sheath if desired? I prefer to make my own to suit my grip

[@reggiequinn747]

I look forward to watching your builds. This is just as beautiful as all of your other blades. You sir, are a true master!

Now this is the video I've been waiting for... I've been waiting for a scraps video

[@lairdcummings9092]

He's done them before. Just not so ambitious as this one.

[@timothynaquin8899]

I must have not gotten the notification. KZbin has been weird like that. I didn't get any notifications for july-late Sept. Then they started showing up again

[@edl5074]

Love the look of that steel

[@pabloiglesias1039]

Can you make the traditional canarian knife?? Thanks!!

[@douglasgault5458]

Beautiful Work

[@webmonkeytt]

Very nice.. what wax do you use on the blade?

[@demonrosario5398]

Your sword looks sleek i have a suggestion maybe a macuahuitl to challenge your creativity im half mayan myself

[@leenard1237]

What kind of powder did you add.in the wootz steel scraps?

[@jameswilkerson6613]

Beautiful

[@voodoo7008]

Winter is coming.

[@nicklynch9384]

That was a joy to watch. Hand shaping the blade is becoming a rare thing. Thank you for sharing that beautifully crafted blade.

[@צביורותדויטש]

[@Ronin63168]

Wow ... your Roman gladius is a testament to your craftsmanship & skill. 👏👏👏

[@TheBeelzboss]

Where and how did you come by the Wootz scraps? Nobody has made that stuff for hundreds of years.

[@СтасГайсан-ц6ж]

[@badmonkey1686]

Beautiful work! Well done

[@fz-makingknives3663]

Thanks

[@badmonkey1686]

@fz-makingknives3663 how much did that end up weighing?

[@nasied]

If all the pieces of steel were melted, how come there is a pattern of veins and layers on the sword? Is it because the pieces of steel were melted but not mixed inside the crucible?

[@lairdcummings9092]

The metal churns on its own inside the crucible, but it doesn't become entirely homogeneous. No effort is made to blend it; thermal processes only.
