Thanks you, glad you liked it!

Thank you!

I don't know what you wrote but I am sure it's something positive... 🤣

Thanks

Thank you!

Appreciate it!

Thanks! I used 26C3.

@@HelixKnives nice!

Juggalos you say... I am not sure if I should be excited or concerned with this new interest from the ICP.

Thanks

Hi, you can make a custom order for one on my website www.helixknives.com/customorder

I am not sure where it is made but it's a good quality 550 paracord. If you are interested in beads you can check them out here www.etsy.com/shop/HelixKnives

Thank you, everyone seems happy with my work and that's awesome.

Thanks

Yup, a lot of the tools that I still use are from a cheapo leatherworking kit that I got when I started. On this model I couldn't do much wet forming because the leather was thicker where the snap is and wouldn't move much.

They got to be sharp for real, them's the rules 😁 Thank you!

Thanks

Thank you.

They don't look as wet and shiny after finishing but they do keep the color. Check out one of my full build videos to see the final result.

First I do the normalizing heats and then after I clean the scale off and apply the clay I do the final heat for quenching.

Thank you very much for your support and I am glad to hear that you are happy with it.

I finish by using a leather strop, that gets rid of the wire edge. It happens naturally when sharpening. This is a more extreme case because the straight razor is hollow ground and super thin so it produces a very big wire edge.

Thank you! Damn sure would, if you got any high-end contacts let me know 😁

Thanks

Thanks. I do clip on sheaths for most of my smaller knives for inside the pocket carry. This one is a boot carry style.

Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks.

Damn straight.

Stabilized maple burl and stabilized walnut burl.

Thanks! I taught this would be a problem as well, but I just clamped the scales on tight when I did my glue up and had no problems. The marks are not super deep and the epoxy will fill any small holes at the area where the handle and blade meet.

ACuriousCreator on Etsy made the vinyl stickers for me. Thanks.

@@HelixKnives are his vinyls reusable?

No, but this is a way cheaper option than one of those plastic stencils an it gives great results.

Appreciate it, thanks!

Thanks

I started with a makeshift filing jig to do my blade bevels and I heat treated the first 3 blades in a barbeque grill with coal and a hairdryer blower. A belt grinder is a very good investment I do the majority of blade and handle shaping on it. If you want crisp bevel lines you can try hogging off material with the angle grinder and then using a filing jig to file a crisp bevel line. @GoughCustom has a video on how to make a filing jig.

@@HelixKnives atm i start with the angle grinder and carefully make the bevels and then I use normal files to finish it. I only have a gas grill so I would need a fire pit to use coal and hairdryer

Thanks.

Thank you!

Thank you very much! I did practice grinding the blade bevel on a piece of mild steel. That was the main thing I wanted to figure out, because it has to be really symmetrical.

@HelixKnives awesome! I have some mild steel somewhere 😆 I'm a hamone freak...I kind of pretty messed up the knife I just made. I have 2 hamon lines now and the one nearest the sharp edge is really pronounced...

@@christobaliancantu7112I really like doing hamons as well. Still haven’t totally figured them out but it’s always nice when you get a good one.

Thank you!
