- Hi everyone, my dad taught me this trick to make straight cuts and I thought I'd share it because it can also be used to make fullers. Sorry for not uploading as often, I'm currently very busy (exams...)
Let me know what you think of the video !

Best method ever , I have all the tools already thank you so much! God bless!
Thanks ! I'm glad if it helps you, you'll see it'll work great with a bit of practice !
This is awesome! Thank you
man! you are genius! that helped me a lot, thanks!
@@4thRico glad it helped !
Thank you, sir! I had no idea how I was gonna make it for the knife this guy asked. I'll try this out tomorrow, really appreciate
Thanks for watching ! Make sure to try it on a couple of scrap pieces before 😁
Thank you for this. Great to see it is possible to do with tools I already have, I hope I am as steady with the grinder as you are. Now I just need a straight piece of steel from somewhere.
Thanks for your comment ! Don't worry, with a bit of practice it'll be easier. The hard part is actually to stop and start at the right spots
I like it, I like it a lot! Your Dad is wise.
Thanks ! Yeah he gives me a lot of tips and tricks 😁
Buen video amigo. Gracias por la idea
man this is a life saver
Thanks man ! I'm glad that you've learned something :D
I've not tried this technique yet but I'll do it soon. It's easy enough and gives good results for people who own only an angle grinder and not a milling machine
Great idea, thanks for sharing it!
Thanks for your comment ! 😁
Well done , congratulations with this video . Hand cutting Fuller / Hi's is a necessary hand skill . Like CNC made swords or using a Milling machine for cutting a Fuller like most ABS smiths , so easy so fast ....... How these so called Journeyman and GURU Mastersmiths get certified , I don't know . But anything goes in Merica these days , so why not cheapen a craft with centuries of history and technical skills ..... Thank you from the bottom of my heart , there is hope !
Thanks a lot for the support !
Hey 👋 GT
I like the way U do fullers. 👍thanks for sharing this informative video. Take care! Greetings 👍👍
Thanks man ! I think it's rather accessible to anybody that has an angle grinder 😉
Hope you're doing well, cheers !
Great! I'll try it
This is realy going to be helpfull with my next project!!! Thanks for sharing
You're welcome ! You should make a video about this project, and message me when it's uploaded ! I'm interested to see what you'll do !
The French Knife Maker I will use is for the NKVD finka knife but I probably wont be making a video about it but there will be pictues of it on my instagram @j3nshan3nburg
Hey man good video. I've actually been thinking how to do this myself. Had a similar idea. But to finish it off use some small diameter dowel rods and hand sand it for a good finish. Haven't tired it yet though.
You're right, wrapping some sandpaper around a small rod or some nail would be another way to clean these fullers, might take quite a bit of time 😂
Super helpful. I just so happen to have that exact same dremel kit
I'm glad I can help !
Nice video! Thanks.
Thanks for watching 😁
What kind of discs are those you are using to "clean" the fullers with? I have a katana with a pretty sloppily made fuller and i would like to clean mine up and maybe even extend it in both directions, getting the fuller closer to the handle and farther to the point. Any advice would be appreciated. Great video.
Hi ! I don't know the name of those, some are coarse stones and the last one is a smooth polishing stone... Unfortunately I don't know how they're called
Thanks mate, how do you finish off the ends?
The ends ? Hum.. with a smooth dremel disc, or you can use sandpaper around a drill bit or something round
You won't be able to a very sharp end with this technic
What about the wide fuller on a Viking sword? How would that be done?
A scraper, a small wheel attachment on a belt grinder, or a stone on a surface grinder. But the method shown in the video probably isn't the best for that, the fuller won't be wide enough
Hey that looks like something even I could do. I would just have to find another way to polish it though as I don't have a dremel. I would have to practice on some mild steel first before I tried it on a knife though.
Yeah definitely practice on a few pieces before, it I still need to practice too.
You can use some heavy sandpaper wrapped around some thin steel bar, or a nail or something
@@lamproknives Might work i will have to give it a go.
@@scottshobbyz5416 or do it before the quench and leave the black oxyde from the quench in there
@@lamproknives haha i was thinking that might be a way to cut down on the finishing work. It would probably go well with some kind of rustic looking survival knife.
@@scottshobbyz5416 yes, or even create a nice contrast with a satin finish
Thank you so much , you killed my nightmare
You're welcome !
Good video
Thanks !
For some reason your previous comment doesn't appear, even though I got the notification. So, I'm gonna answer to what I can see.
First, do you really consider yourself "experienced" after 3 months of practice ? This is really a short amount of time, you must have done.. 10 to 30 knives ? Or at least 10 to 30 great knives, considering that it takes time to learn and make mistakes in the beginning. What I'm trying to say is that you're far from having seen every ways to make something, and you'll see people use tools in unexpected ways to acheive their goals. I've been making knives for more than 5 years now and I'm always surprised how ingenious people can be !
I'm also wondering why you would watch a video knowing you won't like it, since you said you were commenting before seeing it ? And in the end, you can see it actually works. Maybe not the cleanest work ever, but a dremel and sandpaper could make it far more neat looking. I've done it on another knife on my channel if you want to see it on a finished product ;)
Anyway, thanks for watching and I hope you'll gain something from my humble experience :D
@@lamproknives No I'm automotive diagnostic tech. But I wish I was a knife maker. You guys get all the girls. I love trying to make knives except for guards and bolsters. Guards and bolsters are hard. Cool video I liked and Subscribed and will attempt to do everything you do, even though it's a lot harder than it looks.
@@lamproknives i actually deleted the comment. I caught myself in the act being Jay, which in person it's very funny, but seeing that you can't see my exaggerated arm movements , facial features and my funny voice people don't see the fact that I'm actually mocking myself. Who in the Hell considers themselves experienced at any thing let alone knife making after two months! No one, but you can't tell if I'm being serious or stupid on the comments section like you can in real life. So I have to knock it off before i piss off the whole international knife making community. Probably get stabbed at a knife makers convention if i keep it up. " THERE HE IS! GET THAT SON OF A BITCH! "
@@lamproknives How do you hold that grinder so steady? When you dry roll it before that helps you zero it doesn't it! I've tried cutting fullers only to do nothing more than F@%k up a couple of days of work. And I'm actually a service manager now I haven't work out in the bay for years, up in the office because I have a gift apparently me yapping a lot became the bosses buisness model. We haven't gone bankrupt.... yet.
Anyone living in Northwest Ohio I have the sweet connect on stock metal material if you let me use your shop or whatever or wherever you have your "shop" I gots the hook-up.
Pas mal ta vidéo cher compatriote ! :D
Par contre, ce n'est évidemment pas la technique "traditionnelle" (forgeage à chaud de la gouttière, ou retrait de matière par grattage).
Pour ma part, je privilégie un travail plus "traditionnel", car je trouve que le côté manuel nous rapproche de la réalisation.
Merci 😁
Oui il a de nombreuses méthodes, autant que de machines... Forgé, fraisé, gratté, creusé à la ponceuse.. disons que la méthode que je propose est la plus accessible pour les gens qui n'ont pas les machines ou la précision en forge 😅
@@lamproknives Merci de ta réponse.
C'est vrai. Je comprends ton point de vue.
D'après ce que j'ai vu, tu utilises plus la meuleuse que la forge sur la réalisations de tes lames, n'est ce pas ? :D
@@pasdepseudo8519 exactement, et j'ai beaucoup de mal à la forge, mais ça va venir 😁
@@lamproknives Haha, d'accord ! :D
Il est vrai qu'utiliser la meuleuse et la backstand permetent d'obtenir des résultats plus précis.
Well shit.
I over think things lmao
