Part of the goal of my YouTube channel was to make some risky purchases and let people know how it all turned out. This review is based on a man from Pakistan contacting me. We made a deal and a couple weeks later, I had his "pattern welded" sword and axe head in my possession. There were some surprising and some not surprising things about this blade. The review is a little more technical than my usual videos as my videos are generally aimed at new collectors. Let me know what you think.. Pakistani "Pattern Welded" Viking Sword

Like I mentioned in the Bardiche review, very good production quality. I especially like the drone footage. It's refreshing to see unique camera angles during cutting sessions!
Minor quibbles: Your vocal volume was low (or the background music is too loud), and there's some distracting choppy/jumpy cuts in your review. I assume that's an automated feature to edit out dead space while you're speaking?
Good work!

Great review! I've even subscribed. No useful feedback other than what's already been posted.

Good review. The word refreshing comes to mind. You looked at and discussed things normally overlooked and I feel that I now know the sword. You might want to work on your sound track. When you came on I had to turn it up only to get blown away by the music then readjusted for your narration.

I really like that you're not shy about showing botched cuts! They're often more informative than good ones. But yeah, the voice volume is too low.

Thanks everyone! I switched to a new program not long after this. I was using iMovie which worked, but have since gone to Davinci Resolve 16. Every video, I feel like I learn something new about sound design, color rendering, fps, etc.. If you look at my very first video, i'm almost embarrassed by it. All very good info though guys! Thanks

Liked and subscribed.
Who would dislike this?
I like the format of wearing costume, showing testing, including hard use and various mediums, and then the afterward discussion and thoughts and any mods you've done and why.
Thumbs up!
