Reeta Justin congratulations you guys have made it into the final round of this competition now it's time to send you back to your home for just to recreate an iconic weapon from history and that weapon is the soda gourami good luck bladesmiths we'll see you for days [Music] I've never made us two degrom me in my life first time I've ever heard of it was when they unveiled it that's gonna be a learning experience for everybody I'm gonna make Damascus my goal today is just to get a few billets welded up so we're gonna do a 15-inch 20 will clean that first and then we'll move on to our 1084 and clean that up I'm not gonna go crazy with this I don't want to do anything super elaborate the next process is gonna be just uh welding these bad boys together and getting the billet together [Music] okay one of the books things went pretty well we got a couple of billets welded up tomorrow we'll be making on spikes and doing all kinds of fun stuff day three yesterday I was able to finish up my spikes I got all of my tines started today I am going to start with my entangle er super-awesome for this soda gourami I'm gonna have the theme of the octopus the octopus is an animal that entangles its prey and I think that's fitting theme for this weapon so I want my in Tanglers to promote octopus tentacles ah it's time for me to question my quench went well head of the soda gourami looks pretty good at the end of day three everything is dope and I can start putting this together tomorrow day three we're gonna try to do some heat treat make sure this thing's ready to put together and test cut the billet into four pieces I'm gonna Forge these out into the four spikes in the front of the suit of gourami Hope and I'm gonna start shaping these and pull them little leaves off them to do some backwards Barb's coming together for the handle up using a curly ambrosia maple feels pretty solid feel like a ninja turtle it's time to quench go ahead harden just the blade to leave the rest off so that uh when they smack it into whatever they're gonna smack it in hopefully it won't break just points to five blades my back hurts my legs hurt but you got one more day got a knock it out halfway through the last day I plan to have this sort of good on me bill I'm feeling pretty good after getting to spend this time on the weapon I'm excited to see that I can do it and I'm excited for my daughter and my scouts to see two son taco salad a god army done pretty much everything I wanted to do they have time to do one more thing stab so I test my soda gourami one more time chewing and I hear little noise I can't fix this it's been a lot of time on this weapon and I've broken this thing so I'm just gonna run back and put whatever kind of crappy wealth I can get on it if this doesn't work I'm screwed day four ready to get this thing assembled got about a thousand different processes to get through today sharpen in spikes weld and spikes blade sharpening and shaping got about a thousand tasks little Mongolian horse hair that is a blood Guard putting the head in and it seems like it wanted to split on me so we're gonna throw a little bit of epoxy and leather around this thing and call it what it is if something goes wrong with my weapon it's gonna be that I wasn't able to pin the head just didn't have the time to do it hopefully it stays together so DeGraw me

rip this person apart and more importantly your weapon appeals alright just your attorney right have fun yes sir [Music] all right just the times you have here it's more of a stabbing tine rather than the grabbing and this is a grabbing weapon but that hook thus grab on to that overall sir your weapon lakeil all right bladesmiths it's time for the strength test the dreaded ice block chops remember this is not about what these weapons do to the ice blocks but with those ice blocks do to your weapons and Rita you're up first you get points for theme I mean you ready it doesn't matter right

turn you ready yes I am all right so you survived the strength test this is a very strong well-built head for this but it's built more like a spear than it is for catching I mean I'm not sure how
