That's not how you make a sword. You take 2 iron ingots and a stick, then you put the stick in the bottom of the crafting bench and the iron in the middle and at the top. (Now for the real deal) I hollowed out the pommel and made a ± 10 ml water bottle. When you are thirsty during battle, you got water.

Actually, that is how you make a sword.

That intro song was magic

Really good sword. Myself, I would have made the handle a little longer, for two handed use, maybe the blade an inch or two longer, worked a little more on the sword before the heat treat by draw filing or using an angle grinder with coarse flap disks to bring the bevels down, sharpen it afterwards using diamond stones. Overall, I liked the straight forward approach you took into crafting the blade. Great tutorial with plenty of tips for anyone wanting to make their own swords. I don't get the dorks with the criticisms. Swords where made in multiple ways, old and modern, forged, stock removal, combo of techniques, power tools, unplugged, pattern welded, homogeneous steel,so many techniques. The multi layered stuff was often done when working with inferior steel. When smiths were able to obtain good steel they often just forged the blade out of it without all the forge welding processes. The Nepalese and Thai smiths these days frequently make their blades from junked leaf springs from cars. Skill levels varied, some smiths produced their own steel, these smiths where somewhere between steel smelters and the smiths/makers that just worked from the stock they were able to obtain, like rustic village smiths, also cutlers, made blades from files, or obtained steel billets from reputable sources. Roman smiths traded for steel made from the Celtic Austrian mines, or even damascus stock from the east. The layering process was just a way to distribute the carbon evenly in the billet. A sword forged out of modern plain high carbon steel, say 1084 or 1075, heat treated and assembled correctly kicks ass over much of the stuff produced 500 years ago. Most of us just want to make blades from the steel that we can buy, pattern welded or the common 10 series plain carbon steel. Being critical of this dude is like knocking a cabinet maker for using store bought dressed timber as opposed to the guy going out in the forest and cutting a tree down and making the timber sheets from scratch to make his cabinets. That is just dumb.

I miss this guy so much. Just remembered you. Thanks for the quality content over the years

I remember seeing this video when I was a little kid and being so fascinated, but knowing that I probably would never be able to do something like this. I remember spending all day whittling away at a green branch of knarled wood making a bow (it broke on the first shot lol). Now, after years of experience blacksmithing, making hooks, leaves, fittings for machinery, avoiding cold shuts - and making quite a few pretty little knives - as well teaching myself machining, I know I am ready for this. I went to lowes and got a steel that I trust. Quality steel is just getting more and more expensive now, and I wouldn't even know where to go near me to get a truck leaf spring. I got a three foot rod of 3/4 inch steel. They say it's not hardenable, but I have used it in machining, it is hardenable (your mileage may vary). They import it from Connecticut and I've used it for diemaking in the past. Cost 16 dollars. Spent two hours forging it out to a 1/2 inch flat bar, and will probably spend more time later forging it to 1/4 inch. My hammer control has greatly improved. I made a test piece, and was able to make a very delicate two-sided bevel on some very thin metal. I can't wait to see what I can produce.

i watched this video and was inspired. Thanks.

This is definitely not the way Terraria taught me how to make a sword o__O

I cant tell you how happy i am to have found this awesome channel!

This is the exact type of video I was looking for. Thank you!! Fantastic job!!

I think it is awesome. I have just started knife making through stalk removal. Have you ever tried to make a Peened pommel? It is about the strongest way to do it, but you will not be able to remove it after. But I should point out that, relatively that is a very small sword, at lest for a European sword. In a Historical view. The average single hand sword has a 30 inch blade. A hand and a half is normally 33 or so. And a true two handed long sword can have a 35-38 inch blade. And even a large longsword should only be a bit over 3 pounds, and have a balance point that is under 5 inches from the guard. Despite the common belief, European swords are actually light and nimble for their size. even though the blade in very thick and wide at the guard, they distill taper all the way up to the top, allowing for the majority of the mass to be on the tang side of the blade. The pommel is the final counter weight to balance the sword depending on how much it is to be oriented for stabbing or slashing. For the final annealing of the sword, I have heard that you can get it to that oil color heat by placing it on top of an equal sized piece of steel that is glowing red.

What is stalk removal?

@danmartin4552

10 жыл бұрын

lol I should say a restraining order. No I miss typed. I meant "stock" removal. It is when one starts out with a bar of steel that is larger than the finished blade, by using grinders and belt sanders, one shapes the bar of steel into the finished blade.

Not a bad tutorial at all. However, I have a couple of issues. 1. The tang is far too thin. That thin, it will snap after a little use, surely? It should, ideally, be wider than that. 2. The fact that you could hacksaw through the steel indicates that it has a carbon level of below 1·2 per cent, which doesn't even categorise it as "Tool Steel" -- it isn't strong enough to be made into tools, so why would it last a given period of time in re-enactment too? I don't mean to be too picky, comrade; I just feel that should be out there.

Starting out, I was only able to make things in campfires, making miniature swords out of nails I found laying on the ground. Now I've taken numerous lessons and have been honing my skills, and hopefully make my own sword some day. I plan to start making videos to upload onto my own channel, and it all began with you. So I just have to say thank you, Will!

because it is forged. he drew the edge bevels out with a hammer enough to arrange the particles closer together and create a harder material in the edge area that in the cross sections bulk, making it a more durable piece all together. just because he did not draw it all from a billet, does not mean its not forged. you cant just draw out a billet into a blank with just one light hammer

Thank you so much for this, I have been looking to making a forge, and it looks like you show how to make a lot of stuff for it :D thanks.

Great question, yes, the same oil is quite fine for many many uses. Have fun!

... Could these swords (and methods) be used in actual combat? Would they hold up to that sort of use? I have been considering making my own forge and blades for some time. I have a desire to make my own broadheads for archery hunting and such as well, but as I see it, if I am going to make/own swords, they should be combat ready. Just gives more practical use than a wall hanger. I'm not so much interested in fantasy reenactment or any of that, but in fact more interested in actual combat application. When my unit deployed to Iraq, we weren't given bayonets. It would have been nice to have a sword handy, even if it were a short sword for tight quarters. I still have friends who deploy (I am no longer in the military), such would be a NICE gift and piece of gear to send them off with....

The process used to make this sword makes a very functional and historical sword. The only thing I can say to do differently would be to "peen" the end of the tang over the pommel instead of using all of the pins and drilled holes this video uses.

I don't think this would hold up in battle. Maybe a big one like he made but a small one would have to be folded thousands of times to remove impurities, and the metal inside is different than the metal on the outside. inside it is soft and flexible and outside it is really hard. Plus look at the way it is completely flat. A real sword is thicker in the middle so that it doesn't bend! I think this would bend first time it gets hit! And you would send someone to war with a backup like this? To each his own but if he died I would feel responsible!

@mattsmustang65

10 жыл бұрын

Adam Bumgardner This is modern steel, it is nearly free of impurities. Also the soft core with a hardened surface works really well. Also real swords aren't as thick as you might think. And the carbon steel this sword is made from hardened like it is in this video will bend, and bend easily, but it will "spring" back to it's original shape. Proper swords are made that way. They balance flexibility with strength so they can bend without breaking and return to their original shape

It just doesn't seem well made to me. I mean there's a reason they are made the way they are. I just don't see it holding up. I would like to see it leaning at a 45 degree angle and a cinder block dropped in it from 6ft or so, just to see how sturdy it really is

@PhunkyMunky10

A typical middle ages longsword, for a starting comparison, was between 40-48 inches long for the blade, + maybe another 8 inches or so for the handle. Width at the guard about 2 3/4", and thickness from guard to 1" from the tip about 0.23", .178", and .095", so thickness varied. The steel, then, was generally poorer than what we find today. A lot poorer in many cases because it depended on materials that were harder to get then they are today. In the States I don't think there is any ore we can't mine and no steel we can't create, as we have the resources right here. Back then this wasn't so. So even the steel itself could vary sometimes city to city. I think the best made was when they learned to pattern weld, and then blades were superb, but extremely expensive. Today we have a wonderful variety of steels to work from, and some work really well. Spring Steel, from what I've read anyway, seems to be best for heavy use swords. I think if a soldier is going to carry a sword, it'd have to be a short one. I don't know that I'd have been willing to carry a big ole sword in Iraq. Too much real estate to take up with it. It'd have to be a short sword. There is a lot of gear that has to be present. A lot of it standard, meaning no matter the mission it goes, and some will be mission essential. You can't sacrifice those things, and I don't know that trying to pull from my back would be OK, although I could simply make a prototype and test it. It just doesn't seem a smart way to keep a weapon you'll likely need quickly. Right now my assault pack has a machete in it, fitting where the water bladder goes (in a sheath). I use it when scouting for deer :) never know when you'll need to clear a couple lanes of fire and set up a stand. Such could go in a spot like that.... I'm not sure the modern military gear load-out would allow for a sword.... An ax, sure. LMAO, I'm sure Ka-Bar has been down this path before, which is why the Ka-Bar knife is the best fighting knife ever made (opinion, of course). If only they'd issue the gear our fella's need. Like a bayonet when you know they're going to fight an enemy close quarters!

I have forged a few blades and tools over the years and have to say that this tutorial is a great place to start if you are a complete newbie to the craft. The only thing that I would add is a little file work after the forging of the bevels. A little more profile taper to give the sword a little elegance, some draw filing and it should satisfy the nerds here looking for a pic of Excalibur.

Man, i have no words to describe the awesomeness of this video. Subscribed!

Good video , lots of great info and tips , one thing I noticed is the heat treat temp .. O 1 hardens between 1450F and 1525F , higher temps will sacrifice toughness . good looking piece .

Ill make a video when I'm done I'm using a 1 1/2 in 4 feet long lol I've already stated working the steel but I was stumped on tempering your video on the sword forge really help

Just a point for future reference, when quenching it will be more effective to keep the metal moving in the oil otherwise a pocket of air forms around the steel preventing cooling. Also quenching with water from the temper will give you better results. I heat treat aerospace conponents for a living and also do jobs for the tool room using steel nearlt identical to what you're using so hope I can help. As far as people saying you should drop it on the floor to test it, I'd ignore them. A good way to test it without damaging it is to get a hardness test done on it which will give you a recognizable figure and a hood idea of how ductile it is. Cheers

Wow i just love swords and this is beautiful, i wish someday i can do something like this, great video!

I love the creativity and effort you put into it, but does it also handle, cut and thrust like a real sword?

Thanks for vid! I enjoy swords dearly and have always wanted to learn the art of making them.

That is a beautiful sword it's awesome

Great basic tutorial. Definitely not a tutorial for a battle-ready historically accurate sword, but it's still commendable. I'll try to make one using your techniques before moving on with the more complex processes and design.

Just started making swords, this quick tutorial is actually really great, might just show the process of how i make them. pretty similar, but i actually use different types of vegatable oil only because it doesnt catch fire around because of the fire ban in this town, and i actually make the metal itself from scratch bits i find at junk yards. Not as pleasing if you mix the metals by accident.

I have always wanted to make a sword and this video has been a HUGE help!! Thanks :D - George

thanks for the details . great video

You made me so happy

Man I love your videos!!!

that looks better then my first sword when i started blade smithing 7 years ago, now i can say that threw lots of trial and error i can make a very decent blade now.

I think you had a lot of fun making that project, and it turned out great. One question, for sanding your sword after the heat treat, did you use a sanding block to back the paper ?

Well around here it's quite easy to find spring steel, I live in Texas. I found alot of spring steel when I was tearing down the graveyard fence from the 1800's for them to put in a new one and I just asked if I could have the fence, and they said sure, so I've been making swords, knives, claymores etc. out of it. Very effective too, takes forever to actually get dull. People love buying them as well, I try to keep most of mine but people always want them when I show them how they bend back lol.

You sir have and amazing channel and great video love the sword.

I'm interested in how well this sword handles, i believe the balance might be a little off (can't jugde it by just seeing it anyway) the next time you might add a dystal taper, making the blade thinner towards the point, that will not only make the sword overall lighter, but push the point of balance down.

Awesome, dude!

That was awesome dude

thanks going to try this

you might want to check out my other videos on sword making. Much more extensive, drawing out the steel to lengthen the swordand shaping the point and beveling on the anvil. You would like it. I think its eight videos in length. More of a hands on sword making! although still from a blank of steel.
