Green Beetle | Making a Knife from Fish Hooks. @GreenBeetle | Uploaded 8 years ago | Updated 4 hours ago
Canister steel opens up a world of impossibilities. Here a knife is made from thousands of fish hooks and 1084 powder. An astute viewer has pointed out the hazards of putting zinc (white-out) in a forge - and other viewers have pointed out white-out is titanium oxide and not zinc. Heating a sealed container is dangerous as it could explode. This knife was a gift. The fish hooks were purchased on eBay for about 1.2 cents each.

Yes, I made a knife with the first billet. It did not go to waste.
