"The rawhide is cleaned and polished, and it is a very good material for wrapping the handle of the scabbard."

Xu Le threw the entire manta ray back skin that was cut off, that is, the shark skin, into the sea.

Then, under the washing of sea water, stand up with an iron knife on the spot, and further scrape off the fat and meat scraps attached to the inner side of the leather.

shhhhhhhhhh...

With the blessing of Lv3 material processing, the attachments in the leather are quickly scraped off, and the inner side is smooth and full of toughness when you slap it hard.

When the whole piece of skin was first cut, it was a finger thick, but after Xu Le's processing, the remaining skin was less than two millimeters.

A thin layer of shark skin, showing a clean blue-black color, on which you can see reflective particles like pearls, half the size of a little fingernail.

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"How does Mr. Xu Le plan to tan such a big skin?"

"Didn't Mr. Xu Le say just now that what he wants is raw hide, the untanned kind, which is used to wrap the handle of the scabbard?"

"Exquisite! Fish skin scabbards have always been the best decoration for knives, and shark skin can only be used by famous ancient swords or generals in the court! There is no good for taking it easy!"

"Whoever uses it is different. The technical difficulty of raw hide processing is also unique. Mr. Xu Le, this is to directly challenge the highest difficulty!"

"Hehe, ordinary swords are nothing more than ordinary swords. The horizontal knife in Mr. Xu Le's hand is a sharp weapon without compromise, and it is naturally worthy of the best accessories!"

"Knife lovers come to worship!"

"..."

Handle the cleaned shark skin and spread it on the ground to dry.

Xu Le continued to wield his knife, cutting off thick flesh from the manta ray's large fins and mid-chest.

The meat strips were bundled with soft vines and hung on Bajie's back.

In the abdominal cavity of the manta ray that he cut cleanly with a knife, there are still some organs left.

"Let's collect the liver. The manta ray's liver is rich in oil. After a little processing to clean the blood, it tastes very good after simply frying."

"There's nothing else."

"Let's go, go back and continue processing shark skin!"

……

Small courtyard!

Crouching in the corner, Meng Yiyi turned her back to the gate of the courtyard.

"Look at the thighs!"

Silly Baitian raised the things in his hand.

The jackal skin was carefully cut into finger-thin strips, connected horizontally and vertically, and bound into a noose-like structure.

The noose was obliquely fixed on another three-finger-wide leather strip, Xu Le guessed: "Is it a knife belt?"

"Yeah!" Meng Yiyi grinned and showed her small white teeth, and put a knife belt around her waist to demonstrate.

Her waist was slender, the knife belt drooped obliquely, and Bird Wotou gave an embarrassed "hehe" smile.

It's really not a long-term solution to tie a rope around your waist casually... Xu Le patted Meng Yiyi's head: "I'll try."

The diameter of the noose was just enough to wrap the simple wooden scabbard of the horizontal knife, and the length of the knife belt almost matched Xu Le's waistline.

Silly Baitian's craftsmanship is always so trustworthy... Xu Le adjusted the position and angle of the knife belt while thinking, and found a convenient position to draw the knife.

There is still a place to fix Zhuge Lianshi on the knife belt?Silly and sweet, you've got a pair of weapons and brought them out...Xu Le muttered.

Lin Xihan pouted unconvinced: "It looks decent..."

You are jealous!Xu Le stared back mercilessly.

Simply take a rest and start to assemble the horizontal knife!

Chapter 161 The Hengdao Upgrade Completed (Fifth Change)

After the previous scabbard and handle were fixed with wood, the production process came to an end.

After soaking in the sea, the wood is wet, and the joints are cracked and deformed.

Xu Le simply removed all the wooden structures on the knife, leaving only the black and blue blade itself.

Wipe the blade clean with grease, and cut out two pieces of wood according to the size.

The length of the wood is the same as the handle of the knife, leaving out the knife grid and ring head, hollowed out in the middle, and relatively clamping the knife strip.

The joint of the knife handle is bonded, compacted, and wedged with a fixed wedge with boiled isinglass.

The same process is used to hollow out the wooden core of the scabbard, apply fish glue on the joint surface, stick it firmly, and press it to fix it.

While waiting for the wood of the handle and scabbard to be glued together, Xu Le took shark skin that had been drying in the hot sun, compared it to the size of the blade, and cut two long strips.

As the moisture in the skin evaporates, the untanned skin dries and curls.

"The state of drying and rolling is the state that we finally fixed on the knife body. When processing later, we have to soak it in clean water again."

"Softens the cortex for easy styling."

"Wait a little longer for the glue of the scabbard, the glue on the handle is almost dry, and you can start to continue processing."

Busy while talking, scraping off wood thorns, polishing the surface...

Then apply a layer of fish gelatin evenly on the outer surface of the knife handle.

"Next, you can paste the shark skin!"

After soaking in water, the shark skin regained its softness.

Xu Le placed the handle of the knife vertically, and stretched the shark skin tightly with both hands, sticking to the surface of the knife handle bit by bit to the isinglass.

When the water on the shark's skin evaporated again, the blue-black shark's skin was completely fixed on the handle.

The surface of the grainy sharkskin reflects light like broken gold in the sun.

When held by hand, the rough texture of the handle provides a reliable and stable grip.

Gently waving, the horizontal knife has a more controllable feeling than when only using an ordinary wooden handle.

Although the scabbard was still glued to the side, the horizontal knife was majestic and imposing, with a cold light shining on the blade.

The black-blue knife face, combined with the blue-black handle, makes the whole knife dark in color, which naturally brings out a kind of nobility.

This is the real killer weapon. Compared with the cold steel dog-legged iron knife and the armor-piercing horizontal knife, it still owes a lot...

Moreover, the horizontal knife with the same blade material, smashed the ratio of shark skin reinforced and wood material, the look and feel is different...

It's no wonder that the equipment in the game is always a variety of light pollution, and the more blinding the eyes, the more money can be sold...

Men just can't resist this...

Xu Le admired his work with satisfaction.

After gluing the scabbard, he used the same process to apply glue and wrap shark skin.

The surface of the larger grainy shark skin is dazzling, and the special effects are directly full.

The ordinary wooden scabbard instantly adds nine to twelve.

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"Good... so flashy! My dog's eyes!"

"Is this the legendary, colorful black?"

"Don't tell me, it really smells like that."

"This is the complete body of Hengdao! Both internal and external, the appearance is low-key and luxurious, and the performance is equally excellent!"

"Just with this horizontal knife, I dare say that Mr. Xu Le stands at the pinnacle of all the contestants in this round!"

"Yeah, it's only the ninth day. Others are still struggling to survive under the aftermath of the storm. Mr. Xu Le has created a world-class horizontal sword!"

"All lovers of knife circles come to gather! Pay tribute to Master Xu, the knife craftsman!"

"Without relying on any modern tools, complete the entire forging process of a horizontal knife! Master Xu is simply my idol!"

"When will I have the skills of Master Xu!"

[Current popularity in the live broadcast room: 840000! 】

Is this the power of Gugong Hengdao?

Just such a knife has already gained more than 5 popularity...

But intelligence heroes shouldn't bet all on melee weapons.

The next thing to do is to really protect yourself... Xu Le carefully put away the knife.

After rebuilding the workshop yesterday, the firing of charcoal has not stopped, and the flames of the ventilated furnace have been constantly flickering.

Keep on smelting iron ore!

Get the slag!

Further smelting molten iron!

The bullet screens were excitedly brushed up——

"This time, what will Mr. Xu Le do?"

"Could it be... to make knives again? The one just now was Li Zhi. If you can make hand knives and Xiuchun next, it will be perfect!"

"Hehe, I thought too much upstairs. After all, this is survival on a deserted island. Mr. Xu Le, he should be building something more practical."

"Huh? Boss Xu Le...is this the mold that made two hammers?"

"A hammer? It's not like... How can a hammer have a concave surface and a convex surface?"

Amidst the barrage of guesses, the screen of the live broadcast room was displayed, Xu Le was closing the mold and pouring molten iron.

After the molten iron cools down, open the mold.

What appeared before everyone's eyes were two fist-sized hammer heads.

The surface of one hammer head is curved inwards to form a spherical surface, and the other is just the opposite, showing a convex spherical shape.

"The basic tools are ready, let's process them in the next step!"

Chapter 162 Gun barrel!

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"This basic tool... I've never heard of it..."

"Neither have I... My family is a blacksmith inherited from our ancestors, and there is no such thing as a hammer for blacksmithing."

"One convex and one concave? It's so unique, isn't this shape? It can't make a plane, right?"

"Maybe, Mr. Xu Le is going to process the full moon scimitar?"

"The surface of the round moon scimitar is also flat... Hey, what Master Xu cast this time is a piece of iron?"

"To make a big shield? But what can a big shield do on a deserted island? Besides, Mr. Xu Le, doesn't he already have a Thousand Chance Umbrella?"

"If you don't understand it, just follow along. The sound of blacksmithing sounds so comfortable..."

Ding!Ding!Ding!

Forty, forty, forty...

In addition to two hammers with different shapes, Xu Le also cast an anvil with the same semi-curved shape.

He first forged the iron plate continuously on an old straight anvil to make it smooth.

"This step is to level the iron plate and at the same time remove the trachoma and impurities that may remain during the casting process."

"After forging until the surface gradually becomes smooth, we can place it on the new curved anvil and trim the shape."

During the commentary, Xu Le moved the flat iron plate to a new anvil with iron tongs, then replaced it with a convex hammer, and began to forge.
