Tell me about it. Hammering ,makes me feel alive

Impressive skills but i saw a few issues. No flux used before hammering the steel together (unless you don't need it in a coal oven), when quenching, they dipped 2 blades pressed together in the oil and took a while doing it. You should quench as fast as possible and one blade at a time to get the best results. Also the tang looks way too weak for such a long knife. Needs to be full tang,,not something held by a few welds and a glued on butt cap.

@rosewhite---

the furnace was fired with coke - clean burning and adds plenty of carbon to harden the steel. no flux needed when hammer welding. on my hearth I have a piece of wrought iron laminated back in the 1800s. the iron has rusted but the scale between the layers is as solid as ever. Samurai sword makers work the same way.

I love their industrious attitude but these are for display not for use. My guess is they are mostly mild steel. These things most likely will rockwell out at mid 40's, will hold an edge for 1 use. Im sure you can buybthem cheap and they do look cool but not a serious knife. Ill watch these videos all day long though. Id also like to add that if they made a few changes and had so real materials i think they could make a real decent knife, they obviuosly have some skills.

@@homevalueglass3809 I´m not dissing their skill or ingenuity, but rather their design choice. Rat tail tangs are weak, and a welded one even more. They could have left some metal to work with, but chose to cut it close to the blade. They did it to save man-hours in the handle work. Had they went with a full tang, or even a hidden tang, the knife would be robust. As it is, it´s just a tourist trap. If you try to chop down a tree with that, you will end with just the handle in your hand, while the rest of the knife goes flying.

It is not the only weak spot of the knife, the tampering process is not consistent to put it mildly, the final sharpening is performed with too fast grinder destroying the hardening process of the blade and the rat tail tang is just pathetic. Weird since hammering of the blade is really well done, the blade is being destroyed in the further steps. You would not want to take this knife to the wilderness, it would not last a day.

First time I finally see some basic safety gears

Rewatch the video. Look for scars, burns, missing fingers. These are VERY skilled professionals. No clumsy people need apply.

I sure wouldn't do any heavy duty chopping with this knife. The Tang is smaller diameter than a pencil, plus it's welded. Yes, a couple of these guys have great skills, but bottom line, I wouldn't give $10 for a knife like this. It even has the signature "Frostwood" handle, which screams "EL CHEAPO".
