I really wanted to film a demo smashing some things but the weather screwed me over on that. I‘ll upload a demo on instagram, so be sure to follow me there ✌🏻

Not only did you make a beautiful, impressive blade, but your video making style is refreshing for a bladesmith. So many make boring and quiet videos, or else go overboard with the energy. You hit the perfect balance. Earned a sub from me.

That's so sick. I gotta subscribe. I really like to see down to earth guys on a budget that just make do with whatever you have available. Especially when the end result is a amazing. I feel like you're going to go far

the blade looks great and you killed me with the "blade off for tempering" 🤣 that's now how i'm going to think of my tempering.

How have I not seen this channel until today? I'm no metalworker, or smith but I love watching people make things into beautiful metal, and this definitely qualifies!

That is a beautiful blade! Well done sir!

Amazing job! Love the handle. 🙌🗡❤️

nice clean build, thanks for posting

Great video and what a fantastic looking seax!

Well done mate , that is one sweet Seax and great work on all the carving on the blade , handle & brass work 😁

Great work. It was a true pleasure watching you craft this blade.

You know, I don't normally like the look of the broken back seax..... But damn that is a gorgeous knife.

gorgeous work

Truly and simply beautiful!

Brutal work i really like that you hand filed the fuller a hand chiseled the runes. And thanks for translating the runes and teaching me something new grateful for your hard work i'am going to have to try the fuller file technique.

Great job! The blade looks fantastic and great job on the carvings!

LOOKS GREAT!

Excellent intro, excellent voice over with the right amount of comedy and fun. Thank you, new sub looking forward to watching more

Sweet build.

Ein Super Messer! Für die Griffe hast du echt ein Händchen, die sehen immer Klasse aus und die polierte Klinge erst.

Well done...beautiful knife!

The mini sauna set in the tempering oven was class

That is a beautiful knife. 100% would buy one. I wish I had the skills to make the stuff you do.

Yeah man,a real craftsman finds a way to make it work. I love the knife, I'm not a gamer, but it's really cool. I'm gonna subscribe to the channel. Keep on keepin on.

Beim tempering Scherz hats mich verrissen :D schickes Sachs gut gemacht!

Great job fixing the handle. I would have thrown it then realized what I could have done and started over. LoL! Beautiful knife!

Excelente trabalho. Ficou muito legal os detalhes do cabo e a escrita no estilo Viking meus parabéns

Ok this video is beautiful! I love the little comments you leave on the "messed up" camera angles, adds a lot of character lol

your translation won my subscribe, notification bell, and like

a lovely weapon sir.

Fantastic work! Beautiful! Not criticizing at all, just clarifying : "blood groove" in reality is a "fuller". It serves 3 purposes. 1. It is used to increase a blades width. 2. By utilizing the fuller to increase the width, less material is needed. 3. The fuller increases the rigidity of the blade. Nice blade tho, for real!

Your video showed up on my feed and I immediately hit subscribe after 2 mins in. Great work, great editing. High quality stuff. Will probably end up watching all your videos. Nicely done mate.

Very nice!

Bro that knife is beautifull. I wish i could do something like that. It looks like dwarven craft.

Beatiful!

damn this look so good, and would be priced for quite a lot.

The traditional seax has a hand and a half handle. Long for a knife but it was an all purpose tool and the longer handle allowed it be used in a great many ways

Ok, that’s another blade I need to add to my collection

Now you should make a sheath that is just as beautiful.

Klasse Arbeit!

Beautiful 👍👏👏👏👏👏 I'd definitely give it house room

Nice little knife =)

Very good build; in games the blades are mostly way too thick, so your profile and weight are good as well. your polish is also way better than in game/s, which that kinda half rusty look would've been considered unfinished by the people of their times (ig the reason why in media blades are depicted so poorly maintained and unfinished because of the state that the historical pieces tend to be in modern day discovery/preservation/museums, but historically they would've been generally fairly well maintained while in use). Would be great if you do more of these less common a/o videogame weapons, very interesting.

Very nice.

Fantástico trabajo, muy bonito con aspecto ancestral. 👍❤️

This knife is simply stunning. It is difficult from me to think of you as a common blacksmith--since you don't have the stereotypical build--but also because you are more perfectionist than, I think, a common smithy would be. I might be wrong but if I am I blame Orson Scott Card's novel series about a blacksmith called The Tales of Alvin Maker.

Beautiful

daaanngg, youre such a cutie! and this is really inspiring! i kinda always had a thing for fabricating. it seems like a neat pastime!

Seax is Saxon. It’s how they got their name.

Badass🤘😎

I love it! Especially since I had a recent binge on AC: Valhalla, hopefully you do some work from GoW Ragnarok too :D

The first time I tried to make a brass crossguard I thought I could drift it like it was steel. I drilled a line of holes and heated it up and took a chisel to it. Stuff crumbled and broke like old cheese. It pays to do the reading first.

nice job but you know you can buy that from Finland. this knife is called a Skama 240 from Terävä :) The one and only one tool option for survivalists :D

0 dislikes very epic

Shouldn't we appreciate they used real runes in a videogame? lol. Great job the blade is beautiful. What about a sheath though?

Seax is saxon :)

Wonderful nife. Great job .

very cool!!! what steel did you use?

2 things: 1) I LOVE your content. Your knowledge, humour and skill is absolutely fucking amazing. Definitely one of my favourite channels on the platform, without doubt! 2) (and this is a genuine question) HOW MUCH FOR ONE OF THESE?

If you need cheap brass, go to your local shooting club next time. Amazing work, I´m jealous for that knife, great job.

Lawnmower blades haven’t been made out of high carbon steel for a long time, more modern blades (last couple decades) have been low end of medium carbon steel using alloying elements to make them tough without being hard. Reason why is the older high carbon blades had a possibility of breaking when damaged but now they want them to bend instead of breaking to prevent injuries. You can still use them to make a decent machete but not good material for knives like the old mower blades were on the really old mowers

Price: One Kidney 🌚 blade looks awesome and with every video I can't believe how many hours you put into these! I love it 😍

Beautiful knife, but somewhat small for a seax I think.

That is the seaxiest seax I've ever saw 🤤

Super super schönes Messer 👏👏👏

Der Gute Aldi prospekt

Do you make pieces for sale or take custom orders privately? I would be interested to get one just like this made, with a different inscription. I could provide both the runes and translation which is the Norwegian Army's motto, would make an incredible gift for a veteran I know.

Perfect for cutting your enemies down like grass....

What kind of wood stain was used?

Ah yes the seax. I also do the seax everyday

Okay, you got a laugh, a like and a subscribe out of me at 3:18

Now make me one

das ist sicher ein toller chopper

I think they're supposed to be a long as the users forearm

I am not saying I am jealous. (But I am jealous)

I think I saw a crack on the back pommel

Skrama 240 😁😁

I’m perpetually bummed out that this game was so buggy. I never got to finish it

Do you feel like making another one?

Good work. How long is the blade?

If you need a handmade leather sheeth let me know

Did I just hear you call the fuller a "blood groove"? Never thought I'd hear an actual bladesmith use that erroneous term. I was deceived into thinking that's what it was called too though, when I was a kid, but it has nothing to do with blood. It simply lightens the blade without compromising strength.

It's a nice job, but it's just a shame you didn't put historically accurate Viking runes in there, but you did put Germanic runes in there, which is a real shame when this blade is so beautiful. I know it's the game where they got it wrong. But you could have done some research. But otherwise, good work.

me: making a viking sex - ljosafar blade from ass ass ins creed valhalla

Hi, have you considered not making your things out of garbage scrap steel.

This is what we call a seaxual fantasy

That really isn’t a Viking Seax, it is an Anglo Saxon broken back Seax, and the handle needs to be much longer. I realise that this is from a game, but the people who make these games need to brush up on their history.

This is nothing the vikings used. But it looks cool.

Translation is incorrect I think because the characters are dependent on which alphabet your using, which would be either Elder Futhark, or Younger Futhark but hey awesome blade man

Made in Germany-

That's not how you make Viking Sax

It’s not viking, it’s germanic. Those runes are elder futhark which did not exist in the viking age

Felicitaciones exelente trabajo una obra de arte

I'm sorry, but if I can't read the Norse writing, then there is something wrong and maybe you should have made it lighter around the writing.

That’s some nice skills 😮I tired it and failed 😅😅🥲
