Forging A Double Ladder Damascus Knife. Chatoyance Experiment.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Searching for that shimmer by experimenting with double ladder damascus. I take my current understanding of how chatoyance works and try to forge a maximally lustrous knife from alternating layers of 1084 and 15n20 steel. In the video I call curly maple quilted maple sorry. Galactic.

Isn’t it said that “knife makers don’t make mistakes, they just make smaller knives?” LoL Beautiful work.

I remember one complete disaster turned ot to be my favorite carving knife in the end (just as You all know it was all 100% intentionaly if somene ask, not because i made any misstakes...).
both looks awesome, don't sweat about it breaking as a philosophy saying goes : A Foolish man complains about the hole in his pocket. A Wise man uses it to scratch his balls. lol

D. Mat.Zero6 , Comment so true! If it isn’t despair it’s Husslin pocket pool.
damn, that tang napping hurt my soul :( the pattern on the blade is one of the most beautiful i have ever seen
Beautiful work! Love the chatoyancy!
I love watching the flux get pulled into the hot steel. It’s oddly satisfying.
It is refreshing that you show your whole process, warts and all. It is so approachable and fun to watch.

thank you
Your milling experience cracked me up! I'm learning hard on that front too.... At 9:48 i literately gasped... Pattern came out great man!
Man, my heart broke when you showed that kitchen knife without the handle. Although, the pattern is really wild and you can see the depth in the Damascus. Again, I'm impressed not only with your work product, but also your willingness to keep pushing your abilities to learn new methods. Master Smith William F. Moran would be proud.
Man you've stepped things up since I last watched your videos. Before You were in your garage with just a anvil, a hammer and a forge. Now you have a press and mill. bravo!
I love the calm manner with which you narrate your videos. Long time fan. Thank you.
Some of the prettiest knives I've ever seen you make and actually it's probably the prettiest I've ever seen anyone make. Keep up the great work
I'm glad you were able to save the blade and make something out of it. Turned out beautifully
The tang! :( More heartbreaking than a Forged In Fire strength test. The resulting pattern was gorgeous though. Looks a lot like Moire (a satin fabric that has a wood grain look to it).
My heart sinks when the tang snapped of the main blade, but the final work on the damascus on both pieces of blades are just blew my mind away. 👍✨
Awesome! Looking forward to more like this. The pattern effect is stunning.
Great work! I love watching your videos they're always informative and precise. Thank you .
ALWAYS glad I watch your videos. Educational, entertaining, high quality! Your humor and wit make these bro! GREAT WORK 👍 as usual
As a knifemaker myself, I find your videos to be extremely helpful. You have saved me so much time and effort. Thank you so much!

Much appreciated friend
That is amazing work!!!!!! Sometimes failures turn into unexpected surprises!! Both knives look outstanding!!!!
That's stunning. I'm definitely gonna have to try that in the future.
That's rad as hell! Great job.
Awesome job dude! Love'em!
I love the pattern and style of the blade 😍
looks stunning, I love the puuko
Beautiful work, dude! It turned out fantastic! 😮 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I think the "broken" knife was always destined to be a chopper. You really killed the finish on both pieces. 👏👏👏
Nice editing, great video!
Man what a beautiful pattern! You have some real talent brother! Can't wait to see the next video when you try round 2!!!
beautiful lovely knives!
So sick. Youre crazy talented dude. I dont think I've seen a piece yet that hasn't left me damn near speechless.
Both terrific knives
Your personality is coming through so well in your videos nowadays. I'm so proud of you for this channel :)
Way to go salvaging it bud,.... love your videos, keep em comin!
Mr Beetle - nice job - very entertaining and informative. Sorry to see the big knife break.
Badass patterns! Nice work man, sorry about the break, it happens.
Very interesting and informative clip
That blade looks incredible.
Wish i didnt miss the premiere... It looks amazing, i love the idea and i love how you managed to overcome the chalenge with the broken peace and all. It looks sooper gangsta! Wery educational, nicely done, the handles on both knives are preety, satisfying to watch, a tone of stuff to learn, nicely explained, overall a good job considering the chalenges you had with your setup. Good work GB keep em coming, im always happy when i see a new upload.
That came out looking really awesome, sweet chatoyance! Learned something new today! Great video! 🤜💥🤛🍻
Nice. Very impressive.
I'm glad you salvaged the big blade
that puukko looks amazing ❤️
Well done sir!

That’s exciting!
Handle added by a spine sounds awesome.
Those are beautiful
Pattern looks great
This pattern is so so so so gooooood! Those knifes are looking nice, I'd love to make similar one some day
Both are beautiful mate 👍👍👍
Very nice!
This is one of my favorite of your videos. I have watched it several times over the last few months. Would love to see you revisit this!
Great chatoyance!
I guess i need to steal that pattern. Nice job! Will try to use my shaper for the groves, that could work like a charm.
Pretty neat 👍🏼
I did a similar pattern. I kept it on one side of the billet then folded it again! I forged in the bevels and it made a really cool kaleidoscope pattern!
That some nice work like your video you definitely think out of the box 👍👍👍
That pattern is awesome... I like that more than a lot of the fancy mosaic patterns that seem to be the rage.
Great job as usual you should try the basket weave thing you were talking about you definitely have the skill! I would have never even thought up the process you mentioned to do it it sounds brilliant and plausible
That was some cool editing bro

You need to try that weave idea someday. This turned out gorgeous
Very cool awesome job👍👍👍👍✌
i hope u take time to create ur work bc its beautiful.
Oh wow I love that pattern it has!!!! You should have wielded a tang on it and finish making the knife. I love the pattern and know you was still able to make one out if it But I don't care for the style myself But love the smaller one though Enjoyed your video so gave it a Thumbs Up
On the plus side, the pattern came out great!
That chatoyance is great! Certified gemologist approved!
I Love you videos!! Thank you
Dang!! : ( missed the stream great blade work, love the chambounce i mean catshine! 😸
fun video! thanks
Nice work on damascus knifes bro 😉👍
What a save! That pattern is off the hook!
Beautiful blades..
Hey mate, minus the set back it all came out looking amazing. Great work.
Those blades look dope.
Nice save Green!! The chartuserry (or something) damn near blinds. The itty bitty knife is really nice. There is no such thing as failure. You merely changed your mind.
Way to salvage a disaster! Absolutely beautiful
Great recovery brother.

I love the bigger of the two pieces but I have to say that both of them are absolutely beautiful
That break was totally heartbreaking. I thought I would have preferred your folder idea, until I saw what you ended up doing with it. If I ever win the lottery, I'll be commissioning a bunch of stuff from you.
Love this pattern been trying to find info on how to make that pattern. Looks good man.
When that tang snapped, it broke my heart.
I love the more frequent up louds and I will send you some pictures of my knife when I'm done😊
good job
My "chat" and I enjoyed watching your video.
That smaller knife is AWESOME. I’d buy that for sure.
Well, the end result turned out even better than your initial planned knife!
This is my favorite Damascus video
I love how the herb chopper came out!
Beautiful recovery from disaster
