Thank you very much my dear brother 💖 💖 💖. It's pleasure you enjoyed the video. I will make the scabbard as well as l could . lam in your service my dear brother 💖 💖
Thank you very much my dear friend. yes , that's right It is a little bit longer than the original one . but I intended that I thought adding some inches will make it special . Thank you again my friend.
I appreciate your Golden encouraging Words your words to me like a medal of Honor . greetings to you and your country William Wallace land (Scotland ) 💖💖💖
Yes, that's right . I didn't change the wheel because it is balanced if I change it will be non balance that may cause problems especially in bevel grinding .later I bought a suitable nut to the grinder shaft the non balance disappeared . Thank you very much for your advice my dear friend 💖
@@a_shandcrafting8226 no problem. Sgian dubh literally translates as "black knife/blade". But here "dubh" has a second meaning. Contextually black is a colour, or a secret. The Sgian Dubh was a "secret blade". As no Gael Warrior (Irish, Scot and Manx) ever goes without a weapon, the sgian dubh could be hidden away from discovery. The laws of hospitality also say that weapons of guests are surrendered because the host has the responsibility of keeping the company safe. So, swords and daggers ( in later times, firearms) would be surrendered, but the sgian dubh was never surrendered. It was moved from where ever the warrior secreted it normally, to a place upon the warrior that was visible to the host and host's warriors without the guest being unarmed. In Scotland, this has carried down to the sgian dubh worn in the hose with the handle visible at the top of the hose. It is also worth noting that whilst tradition says the "right leg", it can be worn on the leg corrosponding to the master hand. All warriors should be ambidextrous by training, if not by inclination, hence the modern practice of right leg placement. There tends to be a huge disconnect with us Gael from our traditions and heritage because we lost our languages. I exhort all with Gael blood to learn the basics of their mother dialect. There is no culture, ergo heritage, without a language.
@@BeardedChieftain l really appreciate that, you supply me with useful information those l need , l had no enough information about sgian Dubh because I am Arabian from Iraq 🇮🇶 . Sgian Dubh is similar to (Janbiah) Arabian dagger in our historical and cultural folk , It does not consider as a weapon but as a part of the traditional costume ، Thank you so much my dear friend ❤️
Probably . Or we can say it was Used as file when the teeth of it damaged . it repurposed as a chisel that explain the broken tang because of the hammering.
Good job bro
May I ask you in the 14:16 what is the benefit from heating the oil befor quenching??
What if I not heated??
to low the possibility of distortion and cracking of the blade or Any hot piece of steel during quenching process.
من وين الاخ الكريم ؟
👏👏

Nice knife...but IMO the real selling point is in the scabbard
Thank you very much my dear brother 💖 💖 💖. It's pleasure you enjoyed the video. I will make the scabbard as well as l could . lam in your service my dear brother 💖 💖
What cutting disc did you use?
A Chinese one is called (iNGCO)
It is very nice, but I would say it is slightly too long.
Thank you very much my dear friend. yes , that's right It is a little bit longer than the original one . but I intended that I thought adding some inches will make it special . Thank you again my friend.

Yes, that's right . I didn't change the wheel because it is balanced if I change it will be non balance that may cause problems especially in bevel grinding .later I bought a suitable nut to the grinder shaft the non balance disappeared . Thank you very much for your advice my dear friend 💖
Weeeeelll I guess that aint half bad but here lemme show youse how to make a scottish dagger from a deleted file ...
I'm glad to read your respected opinion about the video. That is a great honor to me my dear friend 💖 💖. Thank you very much
@@a_shandcrafting8226 De rien. Free file sharing is a cornerstone of democratic development! :D
Your forge has way to much dragons breath so your oxygen is to rich in your forge
yes, I agree with you my dear friend , I even don't use an Air blower, I think because It's open both sides
Assed😄😃
👍
A sgian dubh is *not* a "dagger"; rather that would be a "dirk". Nice work otherwise.
@@BeardedChieftain thanks for this information ❤️

You must really hate your flaring tool.
Why ? l don't see a reason to hate .
Interesting that your old file had already been repurposed as a chisel but probably became obsolete when the tang broke

You have no respect for your calibers LOL
I just Use the caliber to center -lined and measure the depth of stuff . l don't even know how to read it. thank you very much my dear brother 💖 💖 💖
