Forging a Nakiri Kitchen Knife | PeacefulBuilds #1 

Hello and welcome back to a new video in the new year!
This might be the start of a new series I’m calling „peaceful builds“ at the moment. My idea was to make a relaxing video with a peaceful atmosphere and acoustic music. The goal also is to upload shorter builds under 10 minutes, which is a bit challenging for me since it’s still hard to decide, which parts are unnecessary. If you want to help me with that, let me know what's the most interesting thing for you to watch!
I forged this Nakiri out of 1.2067 (52100/L3) steel, wet ground it to zero, and gave it an African backwood handle. All in all, it was a classic Japanese style which I really enjoy making at the moment!
I want to thank all of you for your support in the last year and hope to make the best out of 2021. I wish you and your loved ones all the best and stay safe!
Thank you for watching!
Please tell me what you think about this video and where I can improve.
As always - if you've got any questions, ask them! I'm always happy to help out other people as I gained most of my knowledge from RU-vid and asking many questions to professionals.

Have a nice day and keep grinding!
About me: My name is Tim and I'm a 22-year-old student. I got into knifemaking about two years ago, by watching videos similar to this one. Over the years, I gained some knowledge and last year I built this belt grinder to finally make my own knives. I do sell custom orders, most kitchen knives, if you're interested, follow me on Instagram. My goal is to make inspirational and educating, as well as entertaining videos. I gained almost all my knowledge by watching RU-vid videos, so now I want to give something back. If you’ve got a question, feel free to write me a comment or start a conversation with me via my Instagram @spira_knives
All my builds and machines are low cost but good quality. I’m a beginner as well as a student at University, so I want to get the best tools for the least amount of money. If you are starting your new hobby, consider watching me set up my little workshop.
