The Lotus Flower Damascus Chefs Knife Lives!!, Pt.5

https://www.steltermfg.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Part 5 of the Lotus Flower Damascus series, we take a huge step forward—forging the knife itself! After all the meticulous prep work and pattern development, it's finally time to bring this blade to life. I shape the blade and get it ready for the critical plug weld stage, where the patterned steel will be fused into the final billet. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0:00 – Introduction 2:00 – Grinding the Damascus 3:09 – Cutting/Welding the Billet 3:44 – Forging 5:21 – Stelter MFG 6:35 – Planning The Plug Welds 7:36– Pattern Manipulation 9:02 – Drilling The Blade 10:30 – Forging Down The Lotus 12:19 – Making The Drift 14:47 – Finalizing The Raindrops 15:45 – Drifting The Blade 16:35 – Outro -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We're excited to be bringing quality products to your door, make sure to sign up for the newsletter to stay up to date as we get going.
