Matt Finnaly takes his ABS Journeyman performance test with Mastersmith E Jay Hendrickson at the Bill Moran Foundation. First cutting a 1' free hanging rope. Then chopping a two by four in half twice and still being able to shave with the edge. Finally the 90 degree bend test. Find out if Matt will pass and move on to the next stage. If he does pass this ABS test then he will be greenlit to present his set of 5 finished pieces at Bladeshow 2022 in June. In this video Matt also continues to work on finishing the first two blades that he forged on the last video. See part one of this series here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSNRw70FuXw
