When you forged this handle, I noticed that the stainless steel almost doesn't have the oxidized iron scales, the metal surface remains clean and smooth. Beautiful work as always. Me and my daughter love to see your work!

@@muggzzzzz Indeed. I wonder if the quench helps, too. As Törbjorn implies, austenitic stainless steels (3xx) do not have the ferritic atomic structure which causes hardening when quenched. But I suspect the thermal shock is good for loosening the grip of any scale there might be (even heat resisting stainless alloys do oxidise to a certain degree)

This Old Torbjorn ... well done!

Always a pleasure watching your video's, and this is the first time I've seen a blacksmith work with stainless steel, thanks for the education and the magic tricks!

What I like most about your videos are how quiet they are and that you really show the entire process, from your thinking to mistakes and how you correct them. There's a peacefulness about your videos that I always enjoy and admire. Thank you for sharing your experiences. :)

I see the Christmas elf gave you some extra strength for snapping steel bars! Your work is always as beautiful as it is functional. Special thanks for a peek at your grapes and lemon tree. Last fall, I planted two grape vines on a homemade arch; I've never grown European grapes before. I appreciate the pruning tip. I planted a lemon tree and a grapefruit tree the year before I left Texas; I got one beautiful and delicious grapefruit 6 years ago, but never got to try the lemons. My friends now have both trees, but I always forget to ask after them because we talk about the Muscadine grapes I gave them - they are a different species than European grapes. Thank you for sharing your time and work with us. Happy New Year!

Sometimes I get so confused at the beginning of your videos. Mostly just trying to figure out how what you do to start is getting you to the end product. I wish my metal working skills were more than cutting and welding. Watching you work is always a joy.

a beautiful piece of workmanship

Admirable tu trabajo BRO

Good thing you packaged it so well, it looks fragile. Great vid, up to your usual high standard.

The tooling for this job is very informative, thank you! Regarding passivation, you can also use a TIG welder as a power source, the same citric acid, applied with a carbon-fiber brush. The CF brush is held in the stick-welding holder, and voltage is controlled with the foot pedal. The CF brushes are consumable, and aren't cheap, but work extremely well. IIRC, Walter makes them.

@torbjornahman

4 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Have been looking into that, and frankly it's a bit confusing... pickling or passivation. Pickling is the actual cleaning operation to my understanding, removing oxides and gunk, which I think you do with the process you describe. It can also be done with pickling paste, which is a nasty product. Passivation seems to be a rapid way of restoring the chromium oxide layer which would have formed naturally anyway. Perhaps the acid also removes small amounts of iron contamination.

@Alanbataar

4 жыл бұрын

@@torbjornahman Yep, the chemistry is pretty far over my head. I just follow a recipe/process. IIRC, pickling is a soak, whereas passivation is electro-chemical. It's very closely related to electro-polishing. I'll see if I can find bookmarks for the pages I found informative.

Awesome!! Very well done!!

Very nice work I was about to ask for subtitles when the first one showed up! I have enjoyed your videos for a long time and always find something to learn thank you very much for sharing

Excellent work. Considering those two sharp highly stressed bends merging the round rod handle to the two rectangular attachment points, the bending procedure for the shallower and smoother handle curve seems to produce a better shallower curve using the procedure at 12:19 rather than 12:24. Such a lot of work to achieve a beautiful merger. That lifting bracket is strong enough to lift the Riva lock, stock and barrel!

Very nice, it's a lot bigger than I thought. Thank you.

*Wow! . . . and the strength of Mirthful Irreverence to snap that steel in two was fun, too, Torbjörn.*
