    Beautiful choppa! Little tip: you don’t want to cut too much wood on the same bandsaw you cut steel with, without cleaning out the dust collector first. That’s a shop fire waiting to happen.

    I love that you used a solid bar of steel for the cutting edge. damascus is good for an outer layer, but I don't like it on the cutting edge because the different steels sharpen and dull differently, and the edge is less refined overtime. gorgeous build

    Gorgeous blade. The copper on black is really striking.
    And don't get too comfy around that band saw. Time it takes to rip up a finger is a lot less than the time it takes to realize it's happening and react. (And I'm saying that with a half inch gash on my thumb from getting a little too comfy by the hacksaw blade on a clingwrap box in the kitchen a few days ago)

    You can trace the profile of the handle onto one piece of scale material, mark and drill pin locations, then stack and pin continuing and opposing scale material in order to make fewer cuts while making the handle. Layers 1A, 1B, 1C, 2C, 2B, 2A temporarily pinned, then cut.

    What do you mean by stabilized form of the wood? Is that specific to mixing metal and wood or something else? I'm a woodworker and have made several things from Padauk, but not heard of stabilizing the wood or stabilization equipment. Thanks for the vid!

    • @JPsBladeworks
      @JPsBladeworks  Місяць тому

      Stabilizing the wood means to remove all the air in the wood and replace it with resin basically making it into a hybrid material. Then the wood becomes water proof and doesnt expand and contract with temps or moisture.

Putting a finish on it should function the same way I would think but never heard removing all the air. I will look that up.
