Переработка металлических вешалок в острый дамасский нож – проект Damascus.

🔥 Welcome back to the forge, my friends! In today's video, "Recycling Metal Hangers into a Sharp Damascus Knife – Damascus Project," I’m taking an unusual material — old metal hangers — and transforming them into one of the sharpest Damascus knives I’ve ever made. As a blacksmith and knife maker, I’m always experimenting with creative ways to recycle scrap metal. This time, I wanted to challenge myself by using metal coat hangers, which are generally considered too thin or soft for knife making. But with the right forging technique, careful layering, and a lot of hammering, I was able to forge a razor-sharp Damascus blade that holds a solid edge and looks incredible. 👉 Watch the full process from start to finish — from metal hanger preparation to the mesmerizing pattern revealed during the final etching stage. You'll see every step of my Damascus steel knife making process up close, including: Forging and folding metal hangers into layered billets Fire welding using traditional blacksmithing techniques Grinding and shaping the blade to perfection Heat treating and hardening for edge retention Acid etching to reveal the beautiful Damascus pattern Sharpening and testing the final blade’s performance This project is part of my ongoing Damascus knife series, where I turn unexpected or recycled materials into functional and artistic knives. Forging a blade from something as simple as hangers proves that with the right skills and tools, anything can become a beautiful and deadly blade. ⚒️ Whether you’re into custom knife making, blacksmithing, or just enjoy watching the transformation of raw metal into art, you’ll love this video. I use both modern and traditional forging methods to get the perfect balance of strength and design. #damascusknife #knifemaking #blacksmith #bladesmith #recycledmetal #damascussteel #customknifemaking #handmadeknife #forgingknife #axeandknife #sharpeningknife #knifeforge #knifebuild #sharpknives #blacksmithingproject 💬 Let me know in the comments what material I should try next!
