Can you forge SAN MAI with MILD STEEL?? | Handforged Kitchen Knife

Welcome back to my channel! Since I've got my anvil I've been wanting to forge SanMai. Now I finally got my borax, which is pretty hard to get here in Germany. As a first test, I used cheap steels (mild steel and 1075) to give this new project a try. It was so much fun, that I'll defiinitely make more of these blades! But in the future, I'll use 75Ni8 and O1 Tool steel, a popular damascus combination. I'm not super happy with the way this blade came out, the transition between the blade and the handle is too long I think. Also, the spine is way too thick. But the forgewelding went perfectly and the edge is razor sharp! Please tell me what you think about this video and where I can improve. As always - if you've got any questions, ask them! I'm always happy to help out other people as I gained most of my knowledge from YouTube and asking many questions to professionals. ****IF YOU WANT TO ORDER YOUR OWN CUSTOM KNIFE, HIT ME UP WITH A MAIL OR INSTAGRAM DM**** Website: https://spira-knives.jimdosite.com/ Etsy Store: https://www.etsy.com/de/shop/SpiraKnives Instagram:   / spira_knives   If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to leave me a comment.
