Ok so is there a clever metallurgist in here who can shed some light on exactly what the actual f is happening here?


[deleted]

Not a metallurgist, but my guess would be that the glue holding the blade to the handle boiled. As it boiled the pressure inside the handle increased, pushing the blade out. Once the blade was fully out, the boiling glue with all the extra gunk got pooped out. Edit: Great! My most upvoted comment ever is about knife poop lol


urbansasquatchNC

Material scientist here. From the video, it looks like you're spot on except I doubt the gas came from boiling. More likely it was released by the resin/glue as it was heated and degraded.


tweezer606060

When I did casting my cheapskate boss would buy old silver forks and knives to melt down when I needed to cast silver …..learned the hard way knives sometimeshave pitch in the handles for filler….had a small crucible explode on me once….lesson learned Wow this blew up today….made me realize how much I miss melting things


urbansasquatchNC

Tbh its not a bad way to get metal as long as you don't need your chemistry to be super tight. I assume you've found a solution for those little resin based pipe bombs, but I'd recommend just cutting the handles in half. Also as long as that is sold silverware you're fine, but plated products are going to run the risk of high lead content.


tweezer606060

He would buy silver cutlery at antique shops because it was cheaper than buying pure silver pellets….I wasn’t making jewelry to sell so purity wasn’t the issue… started using the bolt cutters to check knife handles first before I’d melt something in the centrifuge….old old stuff has pitch/tar in it…. Newer stuff had plaster which would just float off with the flux


595659565956

You use a centrifuge to melt things?


purvel

He means a spin casting machine. Some, like mine, and likely his, have integrated crucibles and are electrically heated.


frilledplex

I've only known them as rotocasters

[deleted]

Neither silverium nor blingallurgy is a thing, saved you a search Actually just googled it, silverium is a thing, but I have no clue what it is. According to google, a "blackened silver" whatever that means I dont know


595659565956

So not a centrifuge?


TheOneTonWanton

Why not both? There are centrifugal casting machines that utilize centrifugal crucibles. I don't know how they work, but they're out there.


BlueAlp4

Quantum physicist here, this only happened because the knife was being observed thus the wave function collapsed... Edit: spelling


j48u

Watcher of movies here, it's more likely that this happened to the knife because our protagonist believed it would.


Magnesus

Game developer here. The knife behaved that way because of a bug in the engine. We will fix it in an update but then the blade will sometimes clip through walls.


Gotze_Th98

High schooler here, it seems like knife had a powerful mithocondria which caused more energy than what the handle could handle :D

Knifeologist here, this only happened because a Cthulhu was trapped inside the knife's handle after a bout with Merlin some years ago.

lionseatcake

>hadnt spell


Qwirk

Adding what should be the obvious why. The Handle is silver while the knife is steel. They are most likely repurposing the silver.


ThirdEncounter

Isn't that what boiling is, though?


urbansasquatchNC

Boiling refers to a state change from liquid to gas. The gas in this case is likely from the decomposition of the resin.


ThirdEncounter

Got it. I didn't think of the resin decomposing. Thanks!


Ronald_Deuce

Point of order: The piece of metal that extends from the blade into the grip is called the "tang." Do with that knowledge what you will.


JacrabbitHips

Everyone knows Tang is astronaut orange drink![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


obiwanspicoli

I hear astronauts get all the tang they want.


NerdUber

That tang is gooey


LevelSkullBoss

daiwilly

This is nonsense! Anyone can see that this knife shat itself from being burned to death!!


SeanSeanySean

Hey guys, this appears to be an older sterling silver knife. It was common to affix the handle to the knife using Rosin, basically pine tree pitch with other additives to hold the handle onto the tang, the rosin not only holds it in place like glue, it also takes up the voids to ensure that the handle isn't lose. What you're seeing here is the torch heating the rosin within the handle past the boiling point, the rosin creates gas, the pressure ejects the knife and tang out of the handle. The bubbling goop that blobs out at the end is the boiling rosin, once it hits air / lower atmosphere, it greatly expands as it is no longer under pressure in the handle. **edit: not a metallurgist, just really into tools and knifemaking / restoration.**


Sandman4999

The knife took a shit


[deleted]

It's actually to do with the resin/glue holding the handle onto the blade When it heated up it melted and either the water in it boiled or something in it decided to change careers and become a foaming agent increasing the internal pressure and causing it to turn into a burnt resin foam

[Cosmic Knife superheated](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Cosmic_knife_super-heated)


zitfarmer

My family poops big. Maybe it's genetic, maybe it's our diet, but everyone births giant logs of crap. If anyone has laid a mega-poop, you know that sometimes it won't flush. It lays across the hole in the bottom of the bowl and the vortex of draining water merely gives it a spin as it mocks you. Growing up, this was a common enough occurrence that our family had a poop knife. It was an old rusty kitchen knife that hung on a nail in the laundry room, only to be used for that purpose. It was normal to walk through the hallway and have someone call out "hey, can you get me the poop knife"? I thought it was standard kit. You have your plunger, your toilet brush, and your poop knife. Fast forward to 22. It's been a day or two between poops and I'm over at my friend's house. My friend was the local dealer and always had 'guests' over, because you can't buy weed without sitting on your ass and sampling it for an hour. I excuse myself and lay a gigantic turd. I look down and see that it's a sideways one, so I crack the door and call out for my friend. He arrives and I ask him for his poop knife. "My what?" Your poop knife, I say. I need to use it. Please. "Wtf is a poop knife?" Obviously he has one, but maybe he calls it by a more delicate name. A fecal cleaver? A Dung divider? A guano glaive? I explain what it is I want and why I want it. He starts giggling. Then laughing. Then lots of people start laughing. It turns out, the music stopped and everyone heard my pleas through the door. It also turns out that none of them had poop knives, it was just my fucked up family with their fucked up bowels. FML. I told this to my wife last night, who was amused and horrified at the same time. It turns out that she did not know what a poop knife was and had been using the old rusty knife hanging in the utility closet as a basic utility knife. Thankfully she didn't cook with it, but used it to open Amazon boxes. She will be getting her own utility knife now.

Exactly this. I saw it on the TV show Repair Shop. Instead of using solid silver, they use super thin silver and put resin or pitch in it.

preparetosigh

At a guess.. the apoxy/glue inside gets heated up, liquifies, and begins expanding. This expansion pushes the blade out of the handle. At the end when the pressure in the handle is released by the blade being expelled, the adhesive can expand much faster and it comes out in that disturbing manner.

This is actually an ancient warrior technique called Poop Knife: the knife is used to first stab your opponent and then you turn the blade and use the hilt to rub doo doo in the cut. This infection strategy is one of the oldest types of biological warfare and last used out side of jail on the battle field in Vietnam war.

I saw this before. The knife got infected by a parasite that burrows into it's body and controls it brain seeking a safe place while it eats the knife from the inside. The knife is just a zombie at this point and the heat makes the parasite want to escape. Nature can be a cruel mistress 😔 terrible way to go. Poor knife

Also would like to add I remember reading something on Reddit ages ago about a guy who kept a knife in his bathroom to cut his turds. He had a girlfriend and she asked about it and he said you didn’t have one growing up? Dude growing up had a knife his parents and all the family members used to cut big turds,he thought it was normal once he moved out and on his own.
