You may be badass, but you aren't forging a machete with a coal forge in shorts and flip flops badass. Mad respect for these craftsmen.

I don't think there's a more beautiful sight than watching someone do what they love and these guys are true craftsman

Nothing fills a metal forgets heart with more joy than when people show interest I can guarantee it I mean like obviously customer money helps and all but when people are interested in what you do it feels amazing.

No shirt, No safety goggles, No steel toed boots, No fireproof pants, gloves or apron, No pneumatic hammers, No temperature cycle oven and still makes a great machete. Yup, that's the Philippines for you.

I was hoping he was going to heat treat that blade, and sure enough! Thanks so much for documenting and sharing this! My brother lives on Panay, near Boracay. Got to go back there!

Panay has a very rich blade culture, much more so than their neighboring islands. You may want to checkout the town of Libacao in Aklan province (where Boracay is also located), there are still blacksmiths there who make traditional blades with very intricate designs.

This guys has lots of skills. With just the basic tools they transformed a raw bar into a good cutting tools. No wonder the Romans can create marvelous structures that transformed humanity.

I wanted to go to the finish and see the results but I could not stop watching for a second.

Awesome smithing! Love the guys who can make it work with minimal tools

Love seeing the blacksmiths and the tools they have made to make the blades. That power hammer at the end of the video looked amazing!

Full tang Philipine Bolos especially the ones made of Leaf Spring (mulye) are quite exceptional when it comes to quality and durability. We have a wide array of varieties to choose from here in Pangasinan.

I like your videos. It is nice to see how we do these in the old days, we forgot how it is done because of the advancement in our modern world.

Nice sir... Blacksmith's handcraft may not be in perfect shape as the factory-made but there was a story to tell behind your "Bolo".

I wanted to let you know that I absolutely LOVE when you post videos of blacksmiths from your side of the world. The amount of information that can be obtained from your footage is much if you know how to look for it.

In Cebuano, the sort of catchall term for a machete is "sundang" though there are lots more subtypes like ginunting, pinuti, panumbahay, lagaraw, and more. Other types I can remember off the bat are guna, panabas, pananggutay, sungkit, likung, sanggut. Bogo is a tree from which the village is named. Also if you can, Moro/Muslim smiths down south here in Mindanao have the most badass blades.

He is good blacksmith!

So here in some other island in the philippines, we do it differently. We put safety on the design as such the blade is much broader than the hilt so that you would not harm your self if you thrust something thereby preventing your hand from slipping into the blade.

I like lighter machetes on cutting small branches and shrubs but I prefer heavier ones in cutting thicker material like leg size logs or bigger and thick bamboos. Try to chop thick log with light machete even if its razor sharp the penetrating power depends on how much force you exert to each swing. Causing more pressure on your palm and whole chopping arm which sometime can cause palm soreness and blisters. While with heavier ones gravity will help to double the force and sometimes you just let gravity itself be the force behind each chop and just use your chopping arm to swing and guide the machete to you target. As someone who lives in a rural community machete is a must and at least 5 days in a month that we use a machete. If I were to choose i'd pick the heavier ones. They can do more base on my experiences using machetes. But of course people are different thats just my part of the story hahahah

i like the craftsmanship and love your videos. but can u next time take a half dozen pairs of cheap safety glasses and pass them out to these great smiths? seems like it would be nice for them as i have personally had many eye problems while forging and sanding steel even with safety glasses. just thinking out loud no disrespect intended.

I suggest to visit alson in Danao Cebu and look how to make gun.

Great video although I have to ask because the audio wasn't very clear, what is the purpose of rubbing soap on the blade edge?

I wonder how this craftsman will react if he sees Forge in Fire? He'd wish he could have those machines working for him.

I had one in the ghurka design that I got in Subic Bay, the brass in the hilt was cast from recycled ammo rounds and the handle was aluminum from mortar and artillery fins collected in the impact area. The sheath was carved mahogany with more brass wrapping. For 20 bucks I feel like I stole it from the guy. Semper fi.
