The video begins with the narrator mentioning a sponsored segment by Bismuth Smith. They talk about being inspired by a YouTube video from Kiwami Japan, who makes various knives, including one from bismuth. The narrator expresses a desire to recreate the bismuth knife that Kiwami Japan made but then melted down in the original video. They admit to having no knife-making skills and proceed to break a large chunk of bismuth into smaller pieces using various tools, including a hammer and an axe.
The next step involves melting the bismuth, but they realize they forgot to buy a cast iron pot for this purpose. They use a regular pan instead and melt the bismuth, showing the process of it turning from a solid to a liquid state.
After successfully melting the bismuth, they pour it into a mold, and the bismuth begins to cool and solidify, forming beautiful crystals. They discuss the crystal formation and share their excitement.
The video then shifts to the process of shaping the knife from the solidified bismuth. They start by tracing the shape of a knife onto the bismuth and proceed to cut and shape it using various tools. The narrator expresses frustration with the slow progress.
The video ends with the narrator attempting to cover the knife with additional bismuth crystals to enhance its appearance. However, they encounter challenges and consider starting over. The video concludes with them showing the partially completed knife and discussing their future plans for the project.
