    Stunning work, Brad! Thank you for an inspiring video! I have a few suggestions. I'm a professional video producer, and I appreciate the hard work that went into making this video: excellent camera work and editing. Music selection and sound mixing are spot on. I would love to hear some narration/ commentary about your technique. As a DIY knife-maker, I could learn a lot from you if you explained the process. Concerning the chefs knife you made in the video, it is gorgeous. However, I would suggest you reconsider the ergonomics on subsequent constructions. Chefs grip their knives where the tang exits the handle. They cut with a pendulum, undulating motion. So, the blade needs to be balanced at this point, and the transition from the handle should be narrow enough to hold it lightly. Also, a 10 inch knife is the optimal size for most cooking tasks. I realize this video is a year old at the time of my writing, so my comments might be superfluous. However, I enjoyed your work on this project SO MUCH, I couldn't resist offering my 2 pennies. Please keep up the fantastic work, and thank you for the inspiration!!

    While the Damascus came out really nice, the ergonomics of the handle as well as geometry of the blade seem a bit questionable to me.
    I found it to be a huge benefit to make the handle detatchable (by setting it using epoxy and bees wax or by using a bolted thru-tang construction). This allows for grinding the handle flush with the bolster and after grinding you remove the handle for heat treat, polishing and etching.

      Thanks for the advice! This was my first attempt at a knife in this style so I'll have to try out some other methods next time!

      @@ItIsRitch Partly in honor of your proper use of the contraction "you're" I have edited out the remark on Brad's beard. It was improper of me to say what I said, and I apologize to Brad, whom I have followed for many years, and to you. I admire you defending him.
      It is rare to see someone type "you're" instead of your. Many people aren't aware of the spelling, or even what a contraction is. You listened at school. Blessings to you, and my respect.

      I'm loving the Grizzly for the price. The biggest downside would be the lack of a VFD. I've been able to make some modifications to run smaller wheels which has helped a lot.

      @@RichardsonForge Yeah i noticed your DIY small wheel attachment. Regarding the VFD, is it 3-phase then? I was thinking maybe an AC rheostat could be used, but I'm not sure if those only work for single phase. Love the channel, keep up the good work!
