Techno Damascus Steel

[@SkunkApe407]

I love how you were able to reheat the blade and use a rubber mallet to salvage the warp in the blade. The fact that you were able to catch that, and fix it, without ruining the blade, is a testament to your skill as an artisan. Again, beautiful craftsmanship. Your passion for your work is evident and inspiring. Thank you for welcoming us into your forge, and for sharing your amazing work with us. Best of health and fortune to you!

I believe this guy has been forging for many years before he started doing KZbin videos.

@@douro20 oh, he has. I've been following him for quite some time now. I grew up in my grandfather's smitty shop, and have been working steel myself for many years. I just find myself regularly impressed with many of the "old hand" techniques that Shurap uses. It's good to see that smithing is still one of the few things technology hasn't ruined.

I’ve just started watching your videos. I love watching people forge! My only question is what is that liquid you dip your item you’re going to forge into before putting it in to get heated up?

[@shurap]

The billet is soaked in kerosene. This is necessary for good welding (forging) steel. When burning inside the workpiece remains soot (carbon), which, with further heating, scales and rust inside the workpiece restores to the iron, improving the quality of forging welding.

Я в восторге!!!красота, 💯 баллов!!! Именно этот узор

[@angrypug9841]

What is that power actually? Is that flux, ash? I know it helps crystalize the metal together but what is it?

[@shurap]

I sprinkle flux (90% borax + 5% quartz sand + 5% charcoal powder) this is necessary for forging (forge) welding. The flux is alloyed with 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).

[@MatrixWarrior98]

Why exactly do you use wood when forge-welding your billets?

[@shurap]

The first welding is done on a tree, as the tree is a heat insulator, and not so selects temperature as an iron anvil. In addition - burning, the tree burns oxygen, protecting the workpiece and pouring the flux work. This is important for welding workpieces with small parts (cable, chain).

[@LOSTTEMPLAR]

@@shurap I was wondering the same thing. Thank you for the explanation. There's always something new to learn every day.

That is to increase the layer count or manipulate the stack pattern. Sometimes it is to reduce girth so that he can stack a harder steel for the edge of the knife. In this case I guess the initial billet is quite malleable so he stacked a harder piece of steel for the edge.
