The fact that we even figured this out is amazing. Humans truly are Devine

Just incredible to see how brilliant medieval tradesmen were with none of the modern tools we can't live without today.

Knights didn't dissapear in history the style of full armour did. Even in the 17thc the blued gild work was very popular on the new armours being half and 3/4 armours worn by nobles on the battlefields of Europe.

The rusting at high temperature, yielding a blue colour, as far as i know, that is not used for firearms? (They sometimes "fire blue" small parts such as screws, by putting it to flame. But never the complete firearm, which is mostly FE203 turned into deep black FE3O4 by various processes.) Is it a lost art? Or is it just that it does not protect so well? It is defenitely fancy.... There are many portraits of e.g. Royal persons, wearing gold and black armour. I have never seen any portraits with gold and blue. Obviously, there were also processes for yielding a black colour?

Traditional English and other mostly European today, handmade Shotgun and rifle barrels are blued by quenching in oil. Yes, most is a chemical process today to produce that Iron iv Oxide with a blue Black bronze colour

If the armour is proofed, it's not medieval armour. It's early modern.

@jonathanengdahl9045 3 месяца назад

Armors were proofed with heavy crossbows before they were proofed with guns. This tradition goes back to the early days of plate armor meaning the mid to late 14th century

41:55 What beyond expectation? Its clearly said you are making a BULLT PROFF ARMOR.

They talked in the beginning about attempting to make the armor the way they did in the past and then go straight to using modern tools. What a pointless video.
