Could this be the milestone of destruction? Forging a Socket Axe (iron Age) 

@@williammakepeace36 most people here don't care. He has demonstrated that he knows the process. What we don't want is for an interesting channel like this to fall into the repetition and boredom of one video after another of the same. There are many things to experience and learn. If you are interested in hammers there are other channels.

👍👍👍👍

I think a new house is coming? (((-;

make an emery by stranding a stone with a crank or water

@@valpage8221 i think that your daughter should give the eagle its eyes because she don't know how to use them. as i recall, there are only about 3 videos at the very start of the channel with an older man which he later identify as his grandfather who teach him most of these skills. his very first 2 videos of himself was that of him trying to build a hut in the rain, which failed miserably. as a matter of fact, most of his earlier videos were filmed by a cave. at that time, he was the only primitive channel that wasn't building a hut, and i absolutely hated him for it. then he came down, occupy a nice piece of land, build a livable hut and plant rice. the guy had came from where he couldn't put a few sticks together to make a shelter to making axes and hammers. he has been living a life that most of us dreamed of, even he cut a few corners. i don't see what some of you deal is. maybe you are sorry for your life.

At least this is actually a fairly realistic goal

If he could find sulphur and potassium nitrate, then it would definitely be possible. If he could drill out the bore and make the lock mechanism then he'd be into the 1600s.

Musket ehh maybe a bit optimistic he'd be more likely to make a sort of black powder hand cannon

He could make something like a pipe flintlock realistically enough. Depending on the availability of certain chemicals like sulfur and nitre and such, he could theoretically mix some gunpowder and make a toploaded rifle firing stone pellets. Might be against local laws, though.

Actually potassium nitrate is the only required ingredient of those two, and it can be extracted from barnyard waste without mining. However, the firearm he'd have to make would need to be a match lock.

Surely a job for monjolo

he's got water and bamboo, why make it foot powered when you can have it water powered :D

I thought the same exact thing.

And an anvil! Those stones are not flat enough

@@c0nstantin86 they are flat enough to make what he is doing at this point. to make an anvil he will need much more iron and a much bigger forge and much more

Eu também! Gosto muito

Dá uma tranquilidade

É da hora

Eu

Kkkkk (all I know in portuguese)

Next step. Steel

❤❤

Это не сталь.

LOL

Self neutering

Damn lol

Haha

You can`t forge one of those...

I think it looks fun, but that looks like a good 3-4 week process before you can even start to make the first ingot.

When starting the hole you take your time inbetween each hit to make sure you're nicely centered. Once the hole is started you can start banging faster as the chisel will slip in there correctly by itsself.

@@tijlaerts lmao

@@tijlaerts Sounds oddly familiar... depends on the size, width, and integrity of the "hole" 😼😼😏😏

I’ve watched every video since the beginning to now and just learned this from reading your comment 🙃

Thank you for making this comment I did not know about the subtitle thing now I can actually understand what they are doing

One other thing, using green wood for a tool with a socket is okay in the short term, but as the wood dries, it'll shrink resulting in a loose fit. Always used the driest hardwood you can for handles to limit that.

Collect it out of rocks that contain iron

Big support, make it driven by foot

It might seem strange but getting the basic in a desent amount of skills is not that hard an the experience from the skills themselves carrie over to the others.

I took a week of blacksmithing classes, after that the same shop I learned at did open blacksmithing nights twice a week. I made a bearded axe head on the 3rd or 4th week. Shaping the metal isn't hard at all. The hard shit is like forge welding, I've still only successfully forge welded a handful of times all together. (edit) I knew a guy that had been doing it for 6 months and he was making pattern welded billets. So, yeah.

I wonder if he can read

@@damon2772nomad Ну.. Если на цифровую камеру снимает, то, наверное, умеет??

its pretty much hardwork and it requires you to have interest in many things, without interest then even if youre hardworking its not gonna workout

@@fl4k_40 Also it'd be pretty dangerous to use probably...

na verdade dava pra ele fazer uma BESTA

Vietnamese rice farmer making homemade weapons... *Fortunate Son intensifies*

@keith moore Vietnam, i learned has some of the most illegal firearm shops in the world. they make them in a shed with primitive tools.

You could possibly make you a Flintlock. he has metal he has wood.

Idiot comment of you..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bamboonium rocket....

idk man, i don’t think that a steam powered bamboo spaceship will work on its own. maybe with a doll who controlls a potato powered super computer from the ground might help a little bit :P

You joke but this does show the necessary steps in evolution that it takes to get to ever more impressive feats of technology. The way he made his bellows was surprisingly inventive and innovative. With all this he can build even better tools for forging.

Dude My dad aways says he will build a bamboo rocket lmao

I think he’s been practicing for a long time

So your not a good blacksmith then? Perhaps a change in career www.indeed.co.uk

@@chrislee8126 just a hobby bro, chillax. Also the fact that you think I’m European is more insulting then the comment

damn, now iv got to watch it again

James I only realised there were captions in the previous video, so I had to watch that one again as well

@@Dog-eg8lc haha oh god you just keep making more work for me dont you.... good dog

Thought this was a joke until after a few minutes some words popped up out of nowhere 😂

Holy crap... I’ve got to watch everything again now...

Eventually he's probably going to have terraces everywhere loaded.

Oh no

late bronze age part 2

this is the first time i found myself questioning the validity of these videos. That iron bar he pulls out of the fire is a bit square and sharp. seems like it was poured or cut rather than hammered out.

@@charlescostain8066 This video doesn't say he forged the bar. How does that make it invalid? He has already shown how to make a bar.

@@CakeProDuckShins I understand that however, I watch these videos with the illusion that someone is actually living this way. We see videos of smelting ore into metal and weapons/tools being created. The clearly machined billet/bar of metal blows the illusion for me. Even if he had stated something like, "i traded 2 kilo rice for this bar of metal" it would have kept the illusion for me. I am a big fan, watched all the videos. I just want to believe that the videos are real, it's hard for me to do so when i see stuff like that.

Absolutely right!

First thing I noticed was the ton of coal he bought, no idea if he showed how to mine for coal in a previous video.

ya he did

nista nemoguce .. ima jako zeljezom bogatu rudu..

Yeah... I dont buy it either. He is a hard worker, but... Have to make all that charcoal, collect all that ore, build and rebuild the furnace, process all the material before... and after. Humans did this in groups for a reason... he is not being 100% honest.

@@bsod4144 nije nemoguće, ali malo vjerojatno. jako malo vjerojatno.. da je sam one željezne poluge proizveo od rude koju je sakupio (od prvog videa), dan danas još ne bi bio gotov. Plus, po čistoći se vidi da nije to to..

@@bryphi77 Content - it's All about content ( and Views, and Likes, and Subs) right?

Даже без наковальни

@@smalL_0013 。787。8

He could have got it from the ground because you see a cave in a video

he's made videos about how he finds and smelts from raw iron he finds in rocks

I don't think that's a practice you'd want to use being out there surviving

Gregory Owen why not. It makes it more secure and holds the axe. Shouldn’t you want the axe to be attached well

using water is only a temporary thing, and also isn't very good for the axe head itself

Or somethin less difficult, a wooden wedge. It works better.

@@credinzel6996 totally agree

Andrey Mamoika honestly, even if they arent made by him, hes already shown he can do it once and lets be honest, he isn’t actually doing this to survive, but as entertainment.

He should have the whole tribe behind him to dug all that ore, to burn all that coal to make those ingots 🤔 But there is no tribe shown in these videos, so it's absolutely normal for him to show us once how to make such an ingot from raw ore, and then just use bought ingots to advance further 😉

Perfectly angled like 90 degree rectangle shaped

I think he just buy iron but it’s ok that way he can craft more tools

He's proven that he can make iron from mineral... Take a chill pill bro

@Ted Melchior Err no. he doesnt make the ingots, he buys them obviously. If u knew anything about smelting/forging/etc it would be obvious immediatly.

@@KuopioKallavesi Like Ted said "he already showed how to make one". He can buy them if he wants instead of wasting weeks searching for and smelting ore. Comments like yours make me laugh. Only an idiot would spend all of his energy on something he can obtain through easier methods.

Я думаю он не поймет что ты написал) видел какой там индус сидит?

@@DeablTime 😜 посмотрим

It was in the last 2 vids I think

a month later ... Look like he's doing it.

because he use high grade purchased steel?

shimba90 he definitely did

We don’t see any folding/welding operations almost always necessary with bloomery steel especially when forging tools you need to clean it or the material will fall appart due to the sponginess of the bloom itself. May be he did all this off camera ?

And it’s not a socket axe from early iron age.

You need to watch more if his videos. he refined the bars from an iron bloom. All it takes is time and patience

even if he HAD bought the bars (he didn't), it wouldn't negate the work seen in this video

@@MoRockHound he skipped quite a lot of the process in the bloom to bar video. But that doesn't negate his awesome work in his videos, humanity took thousands of years to be able to work iron properly, and it was a combined effort, there were people gathering wood, others making charcoal and so on. A single guy would never be able to do it by himself back then, those corners need to be cut in order for this kind of videos to be made, or it would take him an absurd amount of time just to be able to produce a single bar, which would be boring as hell.

he bought the iron

Fernando Rodrigues dos Santos - You do know he was gone for about nine months? That would have given him the time he needed.

two months later he starts a mars colony... two years later he launches the first fusion powered intergalactic alcubierre drive spaceship.

yea it's steel, otherwise quenching the edge would've been pointless.

...

Он еще не умеет делать спец одежду, нужно немного подождать, эволюция однако ! ))

Æ

It looks sketchy isn't it.

well, in earlier videos he has proven that he is able to make iron. If he now cuts some corners after the fact, I think that's ok. I don't want to watch him make iron ingots for the next 2 years...

He has the skill to do it and his tools could work

Looks like star wars

Vietnam

@@legendarycreator8519 really, I should go outside more

Watch the previous videos. He already unlocked the achievent of processing iron ore. Now he can use his RU-vid money to buy iron blanks from a local market.
