Molecular programming of steel blade

You could read about this process as many times as you'd like. But, seeing it being done is absolutely magical. About the only other thing that compares is the making of candy canes...which actually involves a similar process. Great video!

[@liukang3545]

[@z9Vxk]

Candy canes have nothing to do with metal forging lmao

[@shyamdevadas6099]

@@z9Vxk Actually, you're wrong. Sugar is carbon-based and has analogous properties to metal. It can heated, folded, layered, laminated, shaped, contoured, and machined. Depending upon the method of heating, cooling, and composition it can be made soft, hard, flexible, or brittle. During WW2, prisoners would make hardened tools by sprinkling their sugar rations on razor blades and cutlery, then heating them. Making a candy cane involves heating sugar to the "hard crack" stage then systematically working it to line up the carbon molecules. Then, it is reheated, folded, layered, shaped, and cooled...like Damascus steel. Just some advice, Sonny: Turn off the game console and get something better than a 6th grade education.

[@mrbratt69]

what an incredibly beautiful blade, you make it look so easy to do. I am in the process of getting some of the basic tools needed for blacksmithing. I have been a self taught, metal fabricator for 20 years. I owned my own business building custom vehicles for 10 years till the economy took a crap and my customers felt they needed gas in their vehicles more than they needed custom work done on their rides. I ended up loosing my business and then my home. My house now doesn't have the space needed to build custom vehicles but I enjoy working with metal. I have made 4 dimensional roses out of 16g, cold roll, sheet metal, using a shot bag and hammers. I have even made 4 dimensional tombstones that had 3 dimensional skulls, flames, and R.I.P on the top, again out of 16g sheet metal so I have some experience in shaping metal. Obviously shaping sheet metal and shaping flat bar or any kind of thick metal into a blade isn't the same but I love working with metal and I want to broaden my knowledge into blacksmithing. There is no better thing in this world then building and shaping metal into whatever you want

[@wickedmartyn]

mrbratt69 it is made to look really easy here, bare in mind he's using a hydraulic press to do most of the hard work, normally this would be done with a power hammer and hammer/anvil. No disrespect to the video creator or the commenter what so ever, if I had a hydraulic press I'd use it to blacksmith too.. but was just making what I feel was an obvious observation. Good luck with your blacksmith beginnings!

[@mrbratt69]

Thank you Martyn, if I could afford a hydraulic press or a power hammer I would use them as well, I have a manual hydraulic press which I may use but it obviously can't move as fast as this press can so I am not sure how much I will use it if I do. I am just a poor, disabled guy so I just can't afford to buy all of these nice tools that make life so much easier. My wife gives me a hard time over my "Popeye" arms because of how big my forearms are. My forearms are 16" around with my biceps being​ g 18" around, of course they are solid muscle from banging and shaping metal from fabrication work on the frames and bodies of the vehicles that I built during the 10 years that I owned my custom vehicle building business. With building custom vehicles I did a lot of sheet metal shaping by using a good ole fashion hammer, shot bags, and dollies. I really enjoyed working with metal, shaping it into what I wanted or needed for whatever vehicle that I was working on. I surprised quite a few people when they discovered that a custom hood they were admiring on an Import started out life as the stock metal hood and was still metal after I was done. They would automatically assume that it was a fiberglass hood and wanted to know where I bought it from because they had never seen a hood like it before. All the bends and shapes that made the different scoops or ports in the hood would be similar to fiberglass hoods but I made it all out of sheet metal. I even made my own custom body kits, front and rear bumpers. I hated buying pre made, fiberglass kits because no matter how much you payed for the body kit the never fit right so I just built what I wanted and the customer was always happy with my work. Now that I don't have the space to work on vehicles, I want to learn how to blacksmith. I have to keep my "Popeye" arms some how

[@RichardFleming]

Pardon the ignorance, but what is the grey powder he sprinkles on the brick before forging?

[@shurap]

Sprinkle flux (borax 90% + 5% of quartz sand powder + 5% charcoal), it is necessary to carry out (forge) welding. The flux is fused with the scale - the formed substance is sufficiently fluid and is easily displaced by deformation. In addition, the flux protects against oxygen and charcoal, carburizes the surface layer of metal - which lowers the welding temperature (if in brief).

[@livedandletdie]

He forge welded 7 pieces into 1 square stock then proceeded to forge weld another square stock, he then proceeded to twist the stock and then draw out the shape, the twist of the stock added patterns to the grain of the knife, polished the knife edged it in acid, to accentuate the different colors in the different steels that he had used. Oh and that's basically it. A bunch of stuff happened to the metal which we cannot say for certain in which order they happened. Not all of the pattern is from the twist, only some, others is from the welding of the steels, you do after all change the properties of where the metals are with each and every strike. It's possible to control the patterns to a certain extent, however if you really want patterned steel, it's easier to just do it with machinery, and the steel object produced would be a lot stronger... However, forging is one of a kind business, it's a cute yet arduous job, unlike those ugly ass artists who rip apart a canvas and call it art and sell it for millions. No, forging, it's arduous, hard work, it's cute because it's totally unnecessary. However it's a skill worth preserving until the end times, because it's a skill that if we were to lose society as it is now, metallurgical knowledge is necessary to kickstart it back up again.

@@livedandletdie Arduous, hard work is only _cute_ to those who've never had the "pleasure" of experiencing it, but it's never unnecessary. This guy made an _exquisite_ piece of metal, yet without electricity and hydraulics (modern conveniences) he would never have made that beautiful blade. No, he'd be making horseshoes and plowshares, nails and hinges. We are one CME away from a reenactment of the aftermath of the 1929 stock market crash.
