π¨ Welcome back to my village blacksmith workshop! In todayβs video, I take on a challenging and exciting forging project β turning an old wire rope into the sharpest Damascus knife Iβve ever made. Using traditional blacksmithing techniques and fire, I transformed rusty scrap metal into a razor-sharp blade with stunning Damascus patterns. I live and work in a beautiful village in the north of Azerbaijan, where I share my daily life and knife-making journey with you. If you love country life, handmade tools, and the forging process, this video is for you. π₯ What youβll see in this video: Forging a knife from an old wire rope Step-by-step Damascus steel process Fire welding, twisting, and shaping the billet Grinding and heat treatment for maximum sharpness Beautiful knife reveal at the end Using an old steel rope β often called wire cable Damascus β is a unique way to create amazing blade patterns. The steel wires are twisted and forged together at high heat, creating one-of-a-kind layers and waves in the final blade. This is a highly popular method among blacksmiths who work with recycled steel or want to make something beautiful from junk. π₯ This project required extreme heat control, careful hammering, and attention to detail. Every step β from forge welding to hardening and tempering β plays a critical role in making a durable and sharp knife. I also focused on achieving a clean bevel and perfect balance for everyday use or collection. The final result is a razor-sharp knife with a strong cutting edge and deep Damascus lines, ready to slice through anything! I believe itβs one of the best blades Iβve made so far.
