Great work Tony!!!! Love bubbas game face!!! 😂

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend! Bubba can make some faces. 😂

[@cae2487]

Great job Tony! Another absolutely beautifully made blade you've done. Im not generally a fan of seax blades but i will admit that i find this one to be quite impressive. Thanks for sharing.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate it. Yeah I’m not a fan either. They are pretty useless for anything other than zombies lol. Kinda like swords. They look great but useless today. I make using knives day to day but for these challenges it’s just for fun. Thanks for watching my friend. 🙂

[@johnhudson6469]

Great video! Beautiful knife and great humor at the end! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks! And you’re welcome! Glad you got a laugh 😂 I appreciate you watching!

Very nice work Tony

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend 🙂

[@richardbranton190]

That turned out absolutely amazing 👍 I do have to admit that I was worried about letting bubba test the blade. I was surprised that he didn't end up getting stitches 😂

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks brother! lol, the only reason Ragnar has him by his side is because of his specific set of skills. 😂😂

[@diogenesstudent5585]

Your cutting at the end was really impressive.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks brother, I appreciate it!

[@markcassidy1428]

Never seen any of your videos before and after watching one knife making channel you basically don't need to watch another. So you can guess what I originally expected as I started to watch.......... how wrong I was, you got a thumbs up from me within 2 minutes. Great video will check out your channel 👍👍

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks Mark I appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching and participating. 🙂

Wow! I'm impressed by both the complexity of that build and the amazing result. I must also say that the slashing ability of Bubba was also great. Many thumbs up Tony! And thanks a lot for this educative and funny video!

Good job Tony. Are you going to Atlanta this year??

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks! Yes I plan to be there. No table but I’ll be walking around. 😁

[@brysonalden5414]

I appreciate your step-by-step explanations very much. Beautiful blade, and adjusting the tiles to get the snake correctly lined up makes so much sense, I'm surprised other makers don't talk about this process.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you! Yes it is important and sometimes something shifts and they still don’t line up perfectly. The key is to cut them as square as possible.

[@bartomiejszweda7544]

Exellent video, thank you. 😂

Thank you!

[@samdau]

Hey tony great stuff. Glad I found you. Just barely getting into mosaic patterns (2 tries so far) and I just accidentally made my C's backwards on a new pattern attempt. So going to try the snake with that stuff. Your descriptions and seeing the bar-end pattern after each forge weld is crucial for me at my level. Entertaining and instructional. Thanks for taking the time to do this... Be Safe//

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Hey Sam, I’m glad you found my channel too! Yes once you get the W’s made, it becomes your foundation for man and most mosaics made this way. I’m glad the vid helps and I appreciate your support. 🙂

Вопрос - а разве были мечи\ножи древних времен, сделанные по ТАКОЙ технологии? Думаю, нет.

Answer…No. but that was not the intent. Everyone else understood that….

Really beautiful, a real piece of silverware. And I’m French, and you know that the French have a reputation for yelling and criticizing and believe me when I say you have golden hands, what do I say diamond. I would dream one day of having a knife forged by your hands and I would dream, one day, of being as good as you, for I go into the forge. ( Sorry for google translate )

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate the kind words. And thanks for watching! 🙂🙂

[@craigpiech3580]

That skit was as priceless as your knives. I would love to see Bubba pop up in more of your videos or shorts. The possibilities are endless: Bubba the Samurai, Bubba the rapper (Gold tooth included), Bubba the accountant, Bubba the Policeman, etc. Well done. By the way, Bubba’s cornbread recipe was really good. Does he have one for pecan pie?

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks! Yeah Bubba will be in more but he’s been in several, including the Samurai challenge. He’s also been in a few television shows and a feature film on the old sci fi channel. So he will be hanging around for sure. I’m glad you enjoy his part! 🙂

Thanks! I spent two weeks on it. A lot of time! 🙂

[@Heimdall1987]

Beautiful blade! Such a pity that the tang is welded, as that compromises the overall integrity of the weapon.

[@TonySeverioKnives]

Thanks! Won’t hurt it at all. It’s welded then annealed together.

Why the silly horned helmet? Viking never historically wore horns.
