Damascus Steel from Nails
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
My first attempt at making canister damascus from steel nails and powder 1095 steel mixed with 4% pure nickle powder (to make it etch bright like 15n20).
I forge welded a piece of k720 steel on one side because I'll make a single bevel knife from this steel later!

I wouldn’t have thought that the steel in nails would have been very good. Low carbon few alloy elements?
Can't wait for you to turn that in to a awesome knife 😎 thank you for sharing five stars my friend
Buen trabajo!!! Saludos desde Argentina 💪🇦🇷
Superb Damascus thanks
Shurap would approve!
Wasn’t sure at first,,, that looks amazing..
Looks like it's off to a great start
Your videos are very relaxing are you editing it prime , I honestly watch it right before bed and sleep really good , keep up the work!
Spectacular!
Looking good
Getting good shurap vibes. :)
Interesting, thank you 😊
I tested steel nails like them and one nail can hold more than a ton.. much more!
You nailed it
Nice one brother! Lots of possibilities there.
Great looking blank and an excellent job making it!! Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Awesome as usual always love your videos. What are the other items added to the square tubing?

i feel like watching shurap channel. and i like it
I've always wondered how hard it is to find good high carbon steel tubing to use so that the canister could just be integrated directly into the design.

Good job mister
Awesome! Have you got a recommendation on where to get a press and hammer press?
You should have had chili pepper in the canister for extra sharpness

Interesting result. I was kinda expecting to use all the leftover nails and screws of differing metal types so you could go for the weird.
Good
That looks 👌. I wonder how horseshoe nails would work.
With so mush hard work, did not understand what is the use of this metal strip 😎
That came out great! Next time do ball bearings
Beautiful. May is suggest making a leather head knife out of it
Nice 👌👍💓😺
Very nice B.B.. What can we expect from that pc of steel? Thx again for posting....
👍👍👍
Could you use your ultrasonic cleaner to vibrate the work?
Nice looking piece of steel...Looking forward to 👀 that become a 🔪 ...Would you do this again but instead of nails use something like real tiny 52100 ball bearings?? I know the blade would be much tougher mixed with 1095 powder and nickel...Anyway, waiting for the follow up mate!

Nails can be hardened ? I was always confused about that.
Would love to see you make something using thermit welding. It's used to weld railroad tracks to each other and make the ride smoother.

Turned out amazing. Only have one question. Why are you using stick instead of tig to weld? As always thanks for sharing!

Faster and cheaper to do stringers on stick than TIG. TIG is great for control, but don't need much control for a straight line.

What is it "liquid chemistry" in the tube?
I applaud the canister technique but you can get better results with a stainless steel tube when it comes to removing the can. Other than that it looks nice!!

Cool look, but probably not the best for a knife with all those soft nail bits along the edge.. Would be cool as cladding pieces for san-mai with a high carbon centre or it would work better on its own if you cut and stacked a few times to get a more consistent level of high carbon along the edge, but you'd also lose a lot of the cool pattern..

Depends on the type of nails. Wood nails are made of mild steel, but masonry nails are made of good medium-high carbon steel (0.50%+), so would make a perfectly fine steel for a knife. Some other speciality nails also have a decent carbon content, like shoe/boot nails and the sort.

if you watch his newest video, he makes a paring knife with this steel. He grinds it down so that the edge is just the pure k720, with the Damascus only on the upper blade face.
What did you line your canister with? Looked like paint then something else. That can just came right off!
👍👍
I've seen that before tripping on acid in metals shop in high school in '74

@@punisher3607 You could, and carbon would migrate to the welding wire, however there wouldn't be enough carbon in the welding wire, and it would be quite soft, not enough for a good knife edge. You could use hard facing rod, I suppose, but that shit is expensive. So, still, would only be good for cladding or you would have to pick something with higher carbon content.

Very funkay pattern, I likes a lot! Do you ever work with Wootz aka Real Damascus?
should do this again put align all the nails vertically
Nice knife, well made...I've noticed that you don't fold the billet whenever you make a knife... doesn't doing that make the grain tighter and stronger, therefore a much stronger blade with more edge retention?...just curious
@autumn5592
2 жыл бұрын
No. Folding just changes pattern (if you're using contrasting steels), and spreads carbon (or other additives) into other parts of the metal (or if worked long enough, worked out of the metal.) For consistent metals, like this should be, folding will do nothing for it -- the grain size is related to temperatures when normalizing and quenching, not how you move the steel. Folding the steel was common in the older days where you had trash steel that was impure, and folding caused the impurities to be removed, and carbon to be evenly spread. Smaller grains reduce edge retention (wear resistance), not improve it. However, smaller grains improve toughness, making it less likely to break (which has an indirect effect on edge retention, causing the edge to deflect instead of chip, resulting in slightly higher edge retention.) Grain size doesn't effect sharpness either, because the grains are significantly smaller than the apex of the knife can get (depends on the steel, and the carbide formed, some alloy steels can be quite large grained, and as a result can effect sharpness, but not in a meaningful manner.)

Salut, si je ne me trompe pas, tu as du voir les vidéos de shurap, qui ajoute du poivre dans ses cannister. C'est en fait une blague du forgeron car en russe, le mot Spicy (épicé) est similaire à sharp (tranchant), il ajoute do c du tranchant à sont couteau ^^ sinon certains mettent du carbone ou un matériaux inflammable pour supprimer l'oxygène lors de la soudure. Ensuite généralement on met du tippex sur les parois pour faciliter le retrait du cannister. Les "sachets" ont l'air d'être du feuillard.

Depends on when you mean. When he was cutting with the angle grinder, that was the steel tube being shed, because it has no carbon content it's useless. (He specifically took measures to prevent it sticking to the other steel.) If you mean the little bits of metal that fall off when it's being forged, that's carbon and other impurities being removed from the steel.

Put your cannister in the ultrasonic cleaner as you add the powder.
