Today we’re forging a tanto style blade out of a six inch section of 5/8” coil spring. Next time we’ll be making the habaki, saya, tsuka, and mekugi pin.
Thanks for watching and enjoy!

Whoa! A new knifemaking video! It's been a long time. Your channel is how I got into knifemaking about 5 years ago, I did my first craft show in december and made 700 bucks so thanks I guess

This channel is the reason I have 2 fibreglass/pvc bows!

Holy cow your still on here, dude I started blacksmithing and knife making because of your videos thanks for coming back.

@ronthacker211 2 года назад

Good job with such rudimentary tools.

@mybestlifeoutdoors7077 2 года назад

I've been waiting for more videos. I've been going back and rewatching old videos over and over

@achborkah 2 года назад

So good to see you back!

@chew2elah 2 года назад

Awesome. I like how you used the other hammer as an anvil and just used things on hand.

@nailswood167 2 года назад

Tough slugging on a makeshift anvil…Well done!

@MaliciousMollusc 2 года назад

Simple, Ingenious, and Functional. I love it! I'm also really interested in your forge set up. Could you please show it next? It's a great addition to any backyard craftsmen.

Please showcase the forge you used in this, it seems simple and nicely portable, without the need for electricity👍

Good to see you back again Nick!

Nick it is so nice to see you making videos again. I made a simple PVC bow for my nephew couple of years ago thanks to your videos. And he is still using it. I love a good knifemaking video. Hope to see many more new videos in your channel soon. :)

@aboveaveragejoe6291 2 года назад

Love that you are making videos again, can you do more on cross bows please?

@Al-Fiallos 2 года назад

Really nice, I'm always checking for your next video. You demonstrate how anyone can work iron and steel with the most basic of tools.

@user-pe5qx8yj1u 2 года назад

It's good that you came back after all this time and posted a video 🥰

@bournelucid 2 года назад

The hammer became the anvil.....genius!

@lostbuffalo196 2 года назад

Nick, good to see you again. Great job on this knife with tools/equipment you had to work with. I always enjoy your videos.

@brycehampton7649 2 года назад

What’s the black stuff did you put on the blade is it clay or what? I just love to do that.

@gtsbrian167 2 года назад

Can't wait to see you on Forged in Fire!

@jaimeleondelaparra3877 2 года назад

Nicely done! Looking forward to the next vids on this project!

@HarshmanHills 2 года назад

don't know what I am more impressed with...the blade or the fact you used a sledge hammer as the anvil?

@padlok1520 2 года назад

bravo nick! i love the results you get with basic tools, just badass!

@cadmiral3d146 2 года назад

@christianschmidt6463 2 года назад

Yeeees! At least you're back!! Inspiring as usual. Greetings from germany 👍

@CsibeCsaba 2 года назад

Man, you make it look so easy with so little tools. I am into forging and knifemaking myself, and I have better equipment , but its not easy to make a beauty like this one. Keep up the good work! Very nicely done!

@orionvonyx 2 года назад

No joke he does make it look easy, between him and Eli ( ZNA Production ) they smooth through projects like this. They have real passion

@Sheepdog1314 2 года назад

@valynor 2 года назад

Awesome! I missed your videos.

@springer2112 2 года назад

I have all those tools and still don't have the abilities you have, minus a fordge! How long does it take to straighten out a piece of spring? How long did you hammer out that blade? Those two questions & answers you should mention at the end of the video. Just saying! Thanks for the demo!✌😎🏴‍☠️

@archer721 Год назад

This is so basic… no gas forge, no anvil, no vise, no belt sander, not even a drill… no machine tools except the grinder and didn’t really need that… Bare bones basic as you can get! 😎👍 Nice to see you again Nick! - made a lot of bows from your videos! Hope to see you back as a regular again.

@BackyardBowyer Год назад

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. I'm hoping to get things going again soon. I had some health struggles a few months back and am now going through a nasty divorce. Hopefully the dust will settle and I'll get back to it.

@archer721 Год назад

@@BackyardBowyer - good luck to you in all. I hope your healthy and everything works out in the end… keep smiling and just keep going. It sounds easy to say, but I’ve been through it too! - keep smiling, it drives everyone else mad!😁
