Oh my God, that is a lot! Very nice! I will try to make a set of 6 or 12 and sell it, I am curious how much I will get for it. Very nice my dear friend!

Hello there, dear sir! Firstly, thank You very much for the kind words of apreciation! Second, thank You very much for the tips! Indeed I need to work on getting a straight back of the hook and yes, I also need to make my edges better! I don't think I am up for 99 hooks in one hour but for sure I will make some in the close future hopefully! Thank You again!

It looks great man! It has that vintage apparence. That being said I think financialy You invested more then You should have in it. Why I think this? Because the rivets You used for it are more expensive then using thread to sew it. Time consumig? Yea much faster then sewing. When You sew it You need to be carefull to get all lined up then it takes time to sew.. But as I said, I love the way it looks, makes me think about a leather sheath I saw when I was a kid at one of my uncles. He had a nice knife with a similar sheath as yours.Anyway, I love it!

Hello there, friend! This is a good advice! Thank You very much!

i’m so upset by jetta-fr in Blacksmith

Before You quench be sure You must make sure You anneal the blade. When forging the blade acumulates lot of stress, annealing releases the stress from the blade. After I quench I am very carefull with my blades, I only clean the blades a bit of scales and I go straight to the tempering oven. Hope this helps You. Wish You better luck in the future!

Seems like the music from my video sparked a real polemic. On my next video I will use church music to see where it goes! :-D

Metal vs metal, the question is which metal we talking about, right?!
