Miðgarðsormr, The Serpent Blade Viking Sword: Full Build from Start to Finish + Test Cuts

Рет қаралды 129,215

Күн бұрын

Welcome to the complete movie of my Viking Sword project! This video encapsulates one of the most comprehensive Viking sword build presentations on KZfaq, showcasing every step of the journey, including the intricate process of crafting the guard, pommel, and handle assembly.
This video compiles all the episodes, bringing together the entire process of creating the "Serpent in the Blade" Viking sword. As a special addition, enjoy some previously unreleased clips at the end, featuring sharpening and test cuts.
The sword's cutting prowess is remarkable. Tested with the traditional Tameshigiri, it sliced through the mats with precision. Test cuts through rolled tatami mats, simulating human limbs, are known to be a difficult and skill-based task. Since I've done this only once before, whether it's luck or the blade's exceptional sharpness compensating for skill, the result are impressive.
This project spanned several months and now that all recordings are complete, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your support throughout this journey.
Thank you so much for watching!

Unbelievable craftsmanship. This deserved number 1 spot in my opinion. Too many smiths get wrapped up in the intricacies of complex mosaic patterns in their blades, and that's mostly what they focus on. And that's fine. But the historical accuracy and the quality of the fittings and handle in this build were by far the best in the competition, again, in my opinion.

You're a great artist beyond most mortals. You should be working under a king doing his bidding. Every step is thought out and followed thru with exacting detail. I'm so fond of you videos because of the exact detail you make yourself follow. I don't know what drives you but whatever it is, I wish I had more of it.

@davidcahan 13 күн бұрын

@@BlackBeardProjects so does that mean that you actually lose some of the metal to scale? Even if it's a small percent of the total? That's why I asked the question. I didn't realize that some of the metal reacts with the air due to the high heat (assuming)
