Triple-T #51 - Introduction to Forge Tooling

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Any tips/tools I missed or anything I didn't cover that you have questions about? (We'll get into actual forging soon!)

[@miguellopez6819]

I just bought a majestic forge my question will be a I need any tipe off adapter for the thank im new at forging

[@alan_a_1975]

кто ответит правильно зачем цепь на наковальне, то тому приз от автора!

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

@@miguellopez6819 besides coating the refractory, you should be good to go with a Majestic. It should have come with a high pressure regulator.

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

@@alan_a_1975 Цепь находится на наковальне, чтобы заглушить звук. он не звонит так громко, когда он там.

@Tyrell Knifeworks ураа!!! приз в студию! ответ правильный 👍😉

A comment for the KZbin algorithm day 10. Get this guy to recogmended! Best knife maker out there, keep it up! Hope i one day will be able to get one of your knives!:)

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Thanks, Kare! You're a loyal viewer and I appreciate that!

Iam a dentist but reallllly love your videos .. after a long day I just watch and relax .. and really appreciate the educational series too sir 👍🏻

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Thank you for following along!

[@cae2487]

You ought to take up forging you could take teeth removals from 15-30 minutes down to 15-30 seconds just need to get accurate hammer swings down.... jk hope you have a great day

[@gatorcris]

I really appreciate your channel. I am just about to set up my new double Venturi burner forge (Mr. Volcano) this weekend and hopefully start working on my first forged knife the following week (I've done a couple of stock removal knives already.) You are a good teacher and these videos come at the perfect time for me.

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

That's great, Cris! Very exciting to start beating on your first project I bet! I'll be continuing the beginner series with some forging techniques and then on to the steps to do a full tang knife. Then we'll tackle hidden tangs.

[@Bar_D_Forge]

Good stuff... I concur on hammer weight, bigger is not always better... Was a carpenter for 25 years and started with a huge 28 oz one but eventually learned to use a 12 oz one more effectively... Also, I've been using water on anvil like Japanese smiths and it's quite effective for blowing off scale, getting very nice smooth hammer finishes... It's a lot faster than brushing too... Ty for the great vids, keep up the good work...

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

I’ve seen the water on the anvil technique before but haven’t used it much. I’ll have to try it more. Thanks for watching, Kevin!

[@dankissinger1969]

Good morning as always thank you !!! Have a good day

Great learning video, very helpful!

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Thanks for checking it out, Bill!

[@joeywaters7718]

I see you have a chain wrapped around your anvil to quiet it down. I made a heavy, 3 leg stand to fit my 200 lb anvil and embedded the anvil feet in clear silicone. That made the anvil totally dead with no ring! Saw it somewhere on KZbin. Just a thought. Love your stuff!

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Yeah, I should really try the silicone trick. I've only got a 170lbs anvil and it moves a bit, hence the sandbags duct taped to the base! 😜

[@bobgore1962]

Great video, Denis! ... Anyone new to Bladesmithing, (like me) really need videos, just like this one! Thanks Brother! 😎👍🏻🔨🔥🗡️

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for taking time to make your videos. Very good information… looking forward to seeing the next one. I really like the Diver’s Flag SharkCap!!!🐋

Another great video brother lots of good information thank you

[@Mucidamascusblades]

Hi Dennis, as usual great content. I am in the process of binge watching all your video from the very first one. If I may, I would like to add to your explanation a couple of things. PSI and volume (consumption of gas) are not the same thing for gas. A quick example, at same PSI, let's say 3 PSI a 1/4 inch orifice (0.25) will push out 10 times more gas than a 0.025 orifice. So let's say you run a forced air burner at 3 PSI for forge welding with a 0.25 orifice vs a Venturi (Bernoulli) burner at 18 PSI with a 0.025 orifice, the Venturi would use about half the GPM (gallon per minute). The problem is that it's a lot easier to properly tune a forced air burner than a Bernoulli/Venturi which requires a lot of calculations and needs to be built specifically for the vessel (forge) in which it is used otherwise it won't work properly and only waste gas, like in the Majestic forges (of which I have one and no longer use for that reason). My current forge is built out of a 20lbs propane bottle and has a "T" burner (aspirated air) with a 0.025 or 0.030 (I don't remember exactly) mig nozzle and I weld up to 10lbs billets at 18 PSI. I can do up to 9 hours of forge welding with a 20lbs propane bottle. I wish I had a ribbon burner though because of the evenness of the heat, that is indeed the superior burner. Btw, there is a guy who made a Bernoulli/Venturi ribbon burner, I can look the link if you want to read the article, it's very interesting. Keep up the good work, awesome videos!!

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

This is a really old video. I do a bunch of corrections on this in more recent videos. 👍

[@Mucidamascusblades]

@@TyrellKnifeworks ok, thank you!! Yes, I know it's old am just that behind! Thank you for the fast response!!

[@mkwlls]

Really like these info videos

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

I'm glad they are helpful, Michael!

[@DBCraftWorld]

It's great that you mention about the right high of the anvil and death grip:). I still catch myself that sometimes I'm not loosing my wrist enough (partly it's because of zero rebound on my anvil, but still hammer have rebound on his own). Great Video:)!

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Thanks for watching, David!

[@RedBeardOps]

I need to upgrade to a ribbon burner one of these days...

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

You definitely should! Much better heat distribution. It's actually the blown air system that is the major difference though. I'm done with venturi burners.

[@Baldmanblades]

Great vid

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Thanks for checking it out, Barry!

[@crusaderjoe52]

I feel like this video was exactly what I needed to see! Great content as always! I see you have the mallet off to the side, is that for putting bends into the steel?

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

I use the dead blow mallet any time I don’t want to mark up what I’m hitting. Thanks for watching, I’m glad it was helpful!

[@hddm3]

Amazing. Thank you

[@Gome.o]

You're making me really want to take up black-smithing, and I'm the most dunce person when it comes to crafts-ship

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

About 4 years ago I had never done any metal work. If you have the passion and creativity, you can accomplish anything

[@christopherconkright1317]

Hanging the door barn door style how do you know where the wheels go so it hangs against to forge

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

You just have to play with it until you get it in the right spot.

[@erlanebabur4008]

Venturi is a feeding system means: driven by vacuum occurs due to fluid drag.

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Yes, the Venturi effect is caused when a fluid passes through a restricted area that causes a reduction in pressure. In terms of a burner, it does the same thing and sucks air down the pipe.

[@HeavyForge]

So when are you getting the 1100lb Holland anvil?😂 can’t wait to build my ribbon burner should be home for good next week!!🔥⚒💪🏻

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

That anvil is so big, you could be using one end and I'd use the other... from California! Home for good!? I'll have to give you a call and get the scoop!

[@Stillpoint23]

I have a sneaking suspicion that once I start forging, I may not ever stop. Something about hammering hot metal stirs up some kind of feeling, like an urge mixed with instinct. But, my other half, well, you know that goes, she keeps me reigned in so I don't go too over board too fast :)

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Well you need to put a toe in that water and see how warm it is. 😜

[@Stillpoint23]

@@TyrellKnifeworks might lose that toe! 🔥🤣

[@christopherconkright1317]

I just built a forge working on the doors but got the valve and air sensor for it roughly cost Air sensor 44 valve 88

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

I hope it works great!

[@ThreeTreeDog]

Ive just recently been gathering tools and building them, made the forge first, tongs second lol

Nice! Get that first knife built and send me a pic for Viewer Knives! Thanks for watching, Steven.

Can I buy your knifes?? Or do you make knives for people? Basically I want a knife😂😂

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Thanks for you’re interest, Nicholas. What I have is (normally) available on my website. All my inventory is going to the Blade show in Los Angeles next weekend. After the show what doesn’t sell will be back up on the website. Check back in a few weeks.
