Description:

This is our homemade forge that we made in order to make our very own knifes for the first time. Inspired by Greenpete's video's here on Youtube, thanks to him we have learnt how to make beautiful knifes from old files. This is part of the process; Using our forge to heat the steel and then quench it in oil to harden the steel for strength.

did you guys use Motor oil, or vegtable oil? cause most oil quenching doesn't burn like that...

Very nice your forge! And I completely agree when you say that the blade is a tool instead of a weapon.

I admire your enthusiasm; but im not sure I like your terminology/mindset "short heavy bladed weapon" I think of my knife as a tool not a weapon. I hate it when knives are advertised as weapon's or combat knife's, thats just my view, but if your actually using it to hunt/skin animals that dosent bother me at all. All im trying to say is I hope you dont see it as a weapon and more of a tool.

I like your forge. It looks portable and effective. I'll have to try to make a heavy bladed knife from a lawn mower blade. A sort of short heavy bladed weapon for cutting and clearing paths through the overgrowth I hunt through.
