Adam Savage the name that you're looking for for the handle part is called the Tang this is a small piece of metal left over so I can Implement of a handle and guard can be placed on and leather strapped what should make it look really nice your friend JCB third son of Elvis Presley

While this is very late, you could have made this build slightly easier by peening the pommel on (the historical method of attaching a pommel) instead of threading it.

@@Bash70777 What?! Why? It's made of aluminium! You couldn't fend off more than three Vikings with it! By the fourth Viking you'd be "oh, shite, aluminium's not much good for swords!" Look mate, you got Vikings? You need steel! Unless you gotta gun. But that's another story...

MrPossumeyes I want the legendary sword Excalibur by King Arthur

i thought for stage lighting at first

Fun fact, in some of the real-world myths Excalibur would flash with fire and lightning whenever the wielder was fighting monsters

@Carlos Spiceywhiener yes, we understand what it means, that's why there are people commenting on it.

Now with lightning. REAL LIGHTNING

@Carlos Spiceywhiener Yes but he was explain that it’s a joke.....

The things he does for good TV.

I was cringing the whole time. I'm quite surprised such a pragmatic person would not wear any kind of mask

Or hearing protection!

Or safety glasses when using cyanoacrylate!

Yet people will still argue that it was a blood groove😂

@@southaussielad2496 People will argue that the Earth is flat too, doesn't make them any less stupid. It just makes them stupid with conviction.

I’ve had history teachers argue that, as well as the whole “All battlefield swords were blunt” bullshit. It’s frustrating too because my military history teacher was really cool

​@@southaussielad2496I know but it's fun to freak out the normies🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

That was the first things I noticed, and didn't realize how badly I needed ambience over filler music.

There's definitely music, it's just used as ambience. It doesn't overpower the viewer. edit: nm, not during the actual creation, i see what you're talking about.

When there is music its not fucking ear wrecking

I'm assuming thats a known inuendo, but damn I have never heard that one before.

oh man, shame. You missed a good one :^)

He did spend alot of time polishing his sword and enjoing it immensly...perfect example: 33:07

More like 410 billion tons...hes been doing this for years

well, aluminum is much heavier than air. so the partical hits the ground right away, it doesnt stay in the air. so he doesnt inhail it

Water is also heavier than air, and billions of tons of it visibly float over your head as clouds all the time; so... you're wrong. If the particles are small enough (yep, they sure as hell can be), then they can be inhaled. By the way, did you notice all of the accumulated aluminum dust on this shoulders? Yep, he was breathing that stuff alright.

We all die from something. An undeniable fact of life. Might as well be from doing something we love.

@@Jump2218 Idea is to wear a mask and be able to continue doing the thing you love for longer.

PommacX maybe it means only use the flat surface with 3in wheel. He could have switched off camera when he went from the wheel to the flat.

Or maybe no more then three inch wheel?

The "ONLY 3 inch wheel" part is the flat backing for the belt; when the back plate is removed, you can use other wheel sizes.

or, potentially, the "3 inch" part is the width of the wheels. not their diameter. since having a wheel that is wider, or thinner than the belt would be bad. the diameter of wheels can be what ever he wants them to be. but the width has to always match the drive wheel. which is likely also supporting the guide plates that make sure the belt doesn't go slipping off the wheels. the wheel that's also doing the grinding would also loose effectiveness if it were wider than the belt itself.

@Matthew M try telling my wife that.

Thats very relatable due to the current state of the country

That aged well

Also called an Appleseed edge, I'm pretty sure. Such an edge is used on most axes

I'm not sure it was even convex. I think it's a simple diamond shape with basically straight sides...

Sharky Sharkerson I came down to the comments to make this same request.

I was thinking the same, Just imagine what crazy ideas they could make come to life!

he did mention them so i bet he as plans to do somekind of collaboration

I feel like Adam and Ilya would really like each other. They both have a huge passion for their craft and I think that among many other things would allow them to work well with each other.

Collaboration with Michael Cthulhu would be better.. :P

The shop he is working in is unreal

Its his man cave after all, and for a messy looking workshop everything is well organized.

I was looking for a comment telling me what it was. Read yours, then IMMEDIATELY he explains it!

LMAO!!

Yessss I did that toooo

Adam has a video about how to make a mostly child proof sword out of wood and aluminium tape... "How to make a $5 Sword"... Should also work with cardboard and foil/tape so that there is no risk of the kid (un)intentionally whacking another child too hard with it and causing injuries that way...

@@Ugly_German_Truths well isn't causing injury the point of a sword?

​@@Ugly_German_Truthsthat risk os still there, it's just somewhat less dangerous. For a kid that age, foam is probably the way to go.

PAULY PINEAPPLE you an Aussie?

with 400 tonnes of aluminium dust inside his lungs

Techno Gaming aluminum is heavy so it doesn’t float in the air it hits the ground

It bothers me that he is so animated. I guess I am a Jamie Hyneman-introvert kinda guy. Introverts should get more attention.

What amazes me is that he has the patience to do this kind of work given his hyperkinetic personality. I think he is truly a rare cat.

EYYYYYY Skallagrim Squad!!!

GG Gaming I was gonna do it but you beat me to it

☺🙂😐😑😒wha...

How might one best his opponent with an aluminum sword??.....

Mank_Legend the material doesnt matter when you have a good technic and you can do the Best technic with this sword

Exactly what I was thinking! XD

King Author? Did you mean Stephen?

Still the best King Arthur movie.

@@countofdownable No arguments here

Gaming Porkchop Kingdom they truly genuinely are.

Pixelated Hooning I was thinking the same thing; its ​really important that people like him, that are very respected and looked up to in the maker community educate the public on the most basic safety precautions

He should collect the dust and use it in rocket propellant.

Yes, this, please this

Most of his ppe look like it's for looks. The "goggles" he uses don't look Z87+ rated, the face shield is pretty useless if it allows the aluminum dust to get in this eyes all the way around. I was also kind of crining at his hair dangling ringht onto of the grinder/sander.

Adam is just about as unsafe a person can get without being completely a danger to himself or others. There's a difference between confidence in tools/experience, and being irresponsible.

Undizz then he puts it back on

well. this is a prop. a real sword is cast. so a completely different process that isn't THAT different from how it's done today as far as I know.

@@damiantears6225 real swords are never cast. Check out some man at arms videos.. real swords are forged.

Perhaps with more mass production, it would’ve been a little easier, but still a ton of work.

@@theblackknight101 - There's the right answer. There's also Forged In Fire from the History Channel.

@@damiantears6225 lmao

give them super powers, you can't forge a decent sword in a day

I like that idea too ;)

well alec steele can because he is "fantastic "

Eeeee c'mon, Tested! Also, can I come build? :)

It's the new trend. Almost every channel I'm subscribed to suffers from this wave of reckless trolling. I wonder if it comes from the same source than during US elections. It's very similar. I wouldn't be surprised if the same trolls are giving their accounts some history to be able to bypass youtube filters in the future. Thank Donaldo Trompeta for this.

You don't want your cosplay props to be considered an actual weapon and therefore be banned from bringing them anywhere? I thought the danger was half the fun of it!

well, alluminum can still be shapened enough to cut, ence making it a "real" sword too, so bannable from cons and so on

aluminum is a softer metal so it gets dings and nicks from transport and handling a lot quicker. Could also get bent easier. Steel and aluminium both oxidize so they would both need some sort of coating (clear coat/oil) and the cool factor of steel over aluminium.

He's making it to go with his comic con armor that was made of aluminum. Aluminum has a slightly different color to steel so if he had a steel sword with his aluminum armor you'd notice the color change. Also aluminum was the material used in the film's armor and swords so as he's making a prop and not a weapon that needs to be taken into account for accuracy.

The Interfaith Shepherd You say, “Around the breakfast table” like people still sit down and have breakfast together. I honestly hate the new generations.

hi bro Lots of people still eat breakfast together around the world, its probably just America or something.

I wonder the same thing. I imagine he enthusiasticly talkes about the details in the silverware and after breakfast he hurries to make his own silverware. I could watch adam talk about and build anything.

Around the breakfast table :D! what has happened the night before for him to be sharing his breakfast with you?

@@hibro2596 Don't worry, we honestly utterly despise you kinds of people too.

i noticed that as well, but if you look its the flat backer he has under the top slack of the belt that has it written on it, and when hes using the 2" wheel that flat is gone. so im pretty sure its specific to that piece of equipment.

L0rdph0b0s yeah I figured there was something I was missing, just thought it was funny

Using such a narrow wheel with such a wide fuller his sword is basically paper thin in the middle. Hope it doesn't get dropped too hard. Especially because it is aluminum and not something more rigid.

that's only if using the guide

I think its only applies to that table-thingy that is put under the belt.

Twistfaria it's non ferrous and doesn't oxidise as easily as ferrous metals. That's why it holds it's shine for longer. Still if you really want it to retain its shine give it a clear coat after you polish. Bada bing bada boom, everlasting shine.

or the reforged crew

I think I'd prefer alec steel. even some of the editing in this video is similar to what Alec does

EnlightenedSavage Alec defiantly produces a higher quality video

I knew there had to be a pommel joke here somewhere, you just can't have a video with swords in them without somebody mentioning the pommels.

THERE IS ALWAYS TIME FOR A POMMEL JOKE.

Stefan Massyn I'm not a smart human being when it comes to swords but by look can you tell if it is a balanced sword?

I'm no expert, but it has the shape, taper and size of a steel sword, but is made out of aluminium. Aluminium is lighter than steel so the balance may be too far back to the handle, and light, hence limiting chopping power. Good for handling, though.

aka: perfect for something you're not actually planning on using as a weapon.

A sword is supposed to look like a saw, right?

LOL! I guess a multi tool sword would?

Recommend taking a look at the eye candy that is Albion swords, if you haven't already

Logan Hammonds that's rare but one example would be a sawtooth cutless

6:40 ?

@@zyourzgrandzmaz music is always needed for anything savage is going to do better than you can even attempt

He breaks the sword fighting Lancelot, and the Lady of the Lake gives him a new one. I think he throws it in the lake first?

"women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government."

I don't know if I remember correctly but to the best of my knowledge, he never breaks the sword, something happens to it like it's lost or thrown in the lake and the lady of the lake retrieves it... but who knows I could be entirely wrong (I often am)

James Austin the sword from the stone is not Excalibur, it's caliburn. I think merlin gave him Excalibur

It isn't clear. The Arthurian legends have been passed down and mixed and adjusted over many centuries and thus different translations have changed meanings. From my research, the sword in the stone is the same as the one from the lake. The sword Caliburn was pulled from the stone by Arthur (some sources say the sword was Merlins' failed attempt to forge a sword) Then it was stolen by a blacksmith, who split the greatsword into two single edge swords. Merlin found the pieces some time later and reforged it into a single sword; Excalibur, quenching and leaving it in the lake for the king to find. However, he could only find it if he cleared his mind and made peace with nature.

that all depends on which version of the myth you are reading. In some the lady of the lake does not give Arthur the sword but rather a blessing or prophecy.

@@PeterJones-fx2xd the only times ive heard of it as a full story was the sword deriving from the lady of the lake rather than the stone
