    About Simple Little Life:
    This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
    Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
    Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

    As a relative “new” knife maker I love watching your videos you post here there is ALWAYS something to learn even after watching some of these two or three times I pick something up, keep up the good mate I appreciate all the effort that goes into em they are really well edited.
    Cheers

    Having watched hundreds of various knife, sword, axe, etc. making videos, this is legitimately the first time I've seen, or even heard of anyone using liquid nitrogen in the process. I just about always see tempering done the same way, with either an oil or water quench, or on the rare instance with titanium, a plain air cool. Really hope to see more of this method in the future!

    It doesn't happen very often to see me drooling on my keyboard, so... congrats!
    Oh boy, both knives are as PERFECT as perfection itself and in aspects that can be reached. Excellent job, my appreciation!
    I don't get why someone klicks that "Dislike-button", and it was klicked even 52 times! What is wrong with them? Nothing more to say.

    One is the knife Batman carries, the other is a showpiece that's just too beautiful to use. Fantastic jobs!

  • @richardbohlingsr3490

    Both knives came out great. I like the false bevel because it lightened up the look of the knife. Well done.

  • @PZac-g8w
    @PZac-g8w 5 років тому +3

    Beautiful!! Love this design! Clearly influenced by Persian blades and unless I’m mistaken the profile is referred to as a “trailing edge”. Stemming from the fact the edge (the tip) still is technically cutting once the handle has passed. Awesome knife SLL!

    It's basically a modified modern version of the old-timer sharp finger hunting knife like the one I carry on my hip. They used to advertise that particular knife is being able to scan everything from a squirrel to an elephant if I remember properly but it's something along those lines.
