On my patreon page, I began to explain the processes and secrets of my work. Topics already covered:
1. Why do I add pepper to container Damascus steel.
2. What do I sprinkle? Flux and its composition.
3. How do I remove the container from the workpiece (container Damascus steel).
4. Why am I drilling a hole in a container.
5. Why do I sweep away the dross from the anvil with my hand.
6. Why do I first forge some blanks on a tree.
7. In what and why do I soak the blank before forging.
8. In which granules do I place the workpiece after forging.
9. What kind of white powder do I pour into the container.
10. In what liquid do I develop the pattern on the blade.

I cant believe i missed this one. Absolutely amazing. I love how you made the shape look like a straight razor, since it was made out of razors. Also, one of the coolest patterns. Great work bud. Hope all is well with you

There's always at least two happy points in his videos.... The reveal of the pattern and another pot of weird tea 😁... Sometimes I'm not sure which one I look forward to more 🤔😅

[@grumpyboomer61]

The smiley face on the cannister was a nice touch. 🙂 Also, I find the tea almost as interesting as the knife making.

[@histiest1628]

He doesnt sell knives on his english store, so it looks like the forge is a front for a tea syndicate

[@joshvalencia664]

If you look carefully, he always puts a smiley face on his canisters. I've been wondering if it was my imagination, but this one is very easy to see.

[@wr1ght939]

The amount of patience that must’ve been required to unwrap all of those blades without cutting yourself is crazy.

[@thelaughinghyenas8465]

I agree. That smiley face was pure art!

[@robertzarfas9556]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Come for the knives, stay for the tea. 😊

[@K9-Crazy]

I am absolutely amazed. The straight razor is a work of art a thing of beauty. I always wanted a custom-made knife 🔪 I collected knives all my life. But I never knew anyone who could make me one. Beautiful work my friend 👏

[@HellopeepsStavros]

As a metallurgist i see how steel is heat treated, quenched in oil to harden the tip of the blade and then annealed to remove some of the brittleness. What is amazing is how it is the right shape. Must take years to learn.

[@farukakturk5388]

What is he adding to the metal. Some white and black powder?

[@sterby1]

@@farukakturk5388 That would be iron powder, don't know the exact composition, it is to fill out the gaps and makes the lighter shades in the final result. The pepper and chili serves as carbon additives, removing the oxigen and supplies additional carbon for the decarbonization during the high heating.

[@HellopeepsStavros]

@@farukakturk5388 Looks like black pepper corns and salt.

[@clayveldkamp6739]

I don’t know where you are in your journey, but don’t be afraid to start simple. You can finish an entire knife with an angle grinder and a torch, which is how I started. I have made several canisters of Damascus by hand and hope to get the press and power hammer soon.

[@dove3853]

Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ died on a cross for you because He loves you so much. He then rose up from the dead three days later The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross. By believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose up from the dead 3 days later and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free Gift.

[@calibadgerdude6082]

What a fascinating piece, turned out way differently than I’d imagined it would and it’s gorgeous. Have you ever done any videos with handles as well as the blade? Your artistry and attention to detail makes me wonder what you could do with different handle materials and I’d love to see some finished knives. Or maybe find somebody to collaborate with and have them make the handles? Idk, I’d just love to see a finished blade of your making sometime. :). Amazing work as always!

[@CBOJlO4]

Всегда смотрю твои видео. Вы большой молодец

[@bowieo_0798]

You always make it look easy making Damascus. Even in a simple straight billet you create the illusion of a void. You turn iron into steel - and that into an artform. Always looking forward to your next creation. May conflict end, and peace return; and may you and your family remain safe.

Well, you can't. Damascus steel is a type of material, not a method of processing. The fact that the appearance is similar does not make this work of Damascus steel. Although, of course, I'm impressed, the author did a great job.

[@kot-pyshok]

​@@SzejskiHe forged Damascus, this is both the appearance and the method of manufacture / material / package of steels, etc. In Turkey, sometimes in Syria, Damascus was a maximum of 40 layers, as I remember. It was the Syrian blacksmiths who did it there.
