Here's Matt demonstrating the Vehement method of guard soldering and clean up. Please feel free to ask any questions and please like, comment, and share!
Love the attitude of if I make you a better knife maker it forces me to be a better knife maker. Fixin to do my first brass guard glad I found your video. Thank you.
Your video showing how to solder a guard on a blade is outstanding. I've watched many videos showing various soldering techniques but none compare to the result you achieve. I would give you a 10+ star rating on your video and technique. Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks a lot for the video!!! This is the most professional, and easy to understand way that I find on the web! Now I am ready to try the soldering! :D
You got me on that last statement. It’s awesome that you’re willing to share information to better the craft as a whole. Subscribed. Thank you for a detailed video.
A nice a simple process and clean work. I'm just starting out and watching this method really nailed it. I'm going to definitely include this in my hilt work. Thanks bro!
I've soldered a few guards, but none with this result, nice work brother keep it up I have a lot to learn and hope to get this result after seeing this video, much love and respect for sharing this, its important for up and comers to learn the right way to do things, and your knowledge is priceless to the knife making community, I'm also going to buy the Bob Loveless book that you mentioned, wasn't even aware there was one, thanks again take care.
Love that T-shirt brother....I was just listening to L.F.A.T.B this morning....I think I still have the CD from there first album. I like that sound better than the new Rancid album for sure,not that it's horrible but I just like the bastards first album better than the new Rancid stuff. Anyway---I love your fighters and hope to own one one day. I am also interested in making knives...all I have at this point is a drill press and shop tools with a coal forge out back. It's cool to see a maker that is young like me that likes good tunes. Keep up the good work. Peace.
+Josh Huwa I'm new to knife making, and just attempted this method on a knife...not easy. Need more practice, and some of that liquid flux. Cleaning up the solder is even more tedious.
xXwes997Xx Sounds like you're either over heating the joint, you're not using the flux or your joint isn't clean... look at these issues and see if it helps. Good luck!
John Langrehr at the risk of sounding blunt, just don't scratch the blade. It's a matter of being careful. I suppose you could tape it, but it isn't neccessary in my experience.

Excellent tutorial and beautiful work. Thorough and clearly explained the whole way. Well done. Thanks M8.
Thanks for this vid! I'm a hobbyist knifemaker, not a pro, but I'm absolutely going to adopt this technique.

next time someone asks why a Vehement knife costs $300, show them this video. HAND MADE!!!!
+Josh Huwa That has been the point of some of these videos! Just trying to show people what actually goes into their knives!

not much on guards but nice work lookalike u have an organized
What thickness solder do you use? I didn't hear it in the vid.
every time i try this the solder never goes into the slot it just melts and plops down on the ground or falls off as soon as it cools

How do you keep a blade from being scratched during clean up?

Vehement Knives Ha, ha..fair enough!!

Stay Brite solder with Stay Clean flux

*Never trust anyone that makes that bad of a hair choice or wears a booger ring*
Are you on Instagram?
yes we are...just search vehement knives
Back when I was young we would clamp rings in the hogs nose to keep them from rutting up the field. But you???? Why ?
