Blacksmithing Videos for Material Reference?

FULGORE

So I'm guessing that at least a few people on here would know about this already, but I've only just stumbled upon this guy's videos. Similar to that guy.. whose name I cannot remember, who made the Wolverine claws and Magneto Boots. Except instead of a montage, at least in this particular one he talks about what materials are used, what treatments they get, little touches like shaving metal off the blade to reduce weight, etc

I think I'll find this useful when next making something stabby and or pirate-y:

Oh what a fantastic resource!

The only thing I can think of on top of my head is http://www.reddit.com/r/artisanvideos and http://www.armsandarmourforum.com/forum/
