Building An Expensive Knife

This Bowie knife took me around 2 months of full-time work to complete—and I’ve packed the entire build into one fast-paced, 50-minute video. If you’re into forging, Damascus patterns, Bowies, or metalworking in general, you’re going to love this. From raw steel to a fully finished $15,000 knife, every step is here: forging, grinding, heat treating, handle shaping, and final assembly. Grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy the full build from start to finish.
