🔥 Forged Bowie Knife from 6 Meter Bandsaw Blade | Epic Transformation! 🔥

Welcome back to the forge, friends! In today’s epic blacksmithing journey, I take an old 6-meter industrial bandsaw blade and turn it into a razor-sharp Bowie knife with a mirror polish and a powerful edge. This is a full knife-making transformation from scrap to shining steel—perfect for fans of bladesmithing, forging, and handmade knives.

🔨 In this video, you'll see the entire knife forging process from start to finish. I start by cutting the bandsaw blade into usable pieces, forge it under the hammer, and shape it into a traditional Bowie profile. The steel sparks beautifully under the heat, and after several rounds of normalizing, heat treating, and quenching, the true character of this high-carbon steel begins to show.

🔥 FEATURED TECHNIQUES & TOOLS:

Forging a Bowie knife using recycled steel

Heat treatment and oil quench

Grinding bevels and creating a fine edge

Hand sanding to a satin and mirror finish

Custom wooden handle shaping and fitting

Final sharpening using leather strop and compound

This knife is not just sharp—it's shaving sharp. After the final polish and edge work, I tested the knife on rope, wood, and even paper, and it glides effortlessly through every challenge. If you're into bushcraft knives, survival blades, or hunting knife making, this one is for you!

“This is why I love working with reclaimed steel—the edge retention is incredible.”

“After quenching, I could already feel the hardness in the blade.”

“I designed this Bowie knife to have a strong clip point and a full tang for better durability.”

“The bandsaw blade might be trash to some, but for me, it's pure treasure.”
