I think I have watched every video you have ever done..including all the stuff you done with your brother...big fan of everything you have done...
+GrahamReader Have you seen his Make and Core77 videos?
+Jim Haderon I have...love watching his stuff..and I have starting follow his friend from the shop...he also make some very interesting stuff
+Jim Haderon That sir is pushing into the impossible
You guys who criticize his methods to a hyper-level have to admit you are just showing off. It's entertainment and inspiration not a lesson.
Awesome work Jimmy, leather was really cool.
👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Even he has mentioned in previous videos that he's not an expert in making knives, so you expert guys can go slow on him. As always he does a great job and with practice he will learn all of those techniques.
+Robert Jones I like to click on the trolls channel and there is nothing there. Probably never held a tool other then their tool in their life. Probably don't know how to use that one either.
Love the file marks that can still be seen in the blades center and on the handle itself! Magnificent!
Love the tiny file profile you left along the central ridge of the blade. Great character. Beautiful work as always.
I really like how you left the file ridges along the center of the blade! I'm blown away again! Thanks for sharing!

Love how you kept some of the file-iness of it as a texture for the handle.

Even though this is an older video, this knife is one of my all time favorites. Awesome work. 👍
You are tough... I enjoy every video that I have seen you make... You are a motivator... A true Renaissance man... Thanks for taking the time to make these tutorials...
My commentary is, you're a badass...period. Excellent job, my friend, thumbs way up.
Respect!
I don't know how but it seems most of the comments are gone??!! not by me!!
there are some very useful commentary so thank you all of the information!
Wow, that turned out surprisingly elegant. I didn't think you could get such a pleasing shape from a file without smithing.
Did you temper the knife off-camera?
How long did it take you to make this?
+Destichado this was what i was going to ask him as well tempering is key and as he kept the knife all steel he can still go back and temper it
+jimmydiresta I think I will need one after November. Awesome work as always.
+Destichado 3:56 Isn't this tempering? When you heat the metal up and then quench it in oil.
i love knives made from old files or wrenches, awesome work.. not to mention your leather work, keep it up! love your videos!
MAN! I LOVE WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS, ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHANNELS..
Jimmy, I like this learning by doing. Here are a couple of techniques to try out.
To get your bevels even, paint the edges of the blade blank with dyechem or nail polish, then clamp a drill bit that is the same diameter as the thickness of your blade to the work bench so that the point is toward the center of the bench. Then place the blade flat on the bench and and slide it along the tip of the drill bit so that the center of the bit scratches a line in the dyechem at the center of the thickness. Then grind each side to the line to keep it even.
I would also suggest a larger quench tank. To properly harden most carbon steels require a faster quench than a small can of oil can provide. Some steels need other quenchants too and it can be tough to know if you got it properly hardend one file it may work the next may not if it has a different composition.
Third I suggest heating the entire knife evenly at each stage that it is in the forge. This will make the overall quality of the heat treat better. For annealing the color looked about right, heat the entire blade to above it's critical temp (where it no longer attracts a magnet) then allow it to slowly cool in the forge. This will soften the steel and make it the most workable. You did this but not to the tang end to that was likely harder on your grinding belts than it needed to be. Then use a hacksaw, sawsall, or angle grinder for your rough shaping of the profile. It will go much faster and save your belts.
Next normallize the steel several times by heating it above critical and allowing it to air cool outside of the forge. this is to normalize the grain structure in the steel you want it small. Don't get it too hot to where the carbon starts sparking off as this is over heating and it will make the grains too large and the knife will easily break.
Then when you are ready to for final heat treat, heat it only to critical, checking it agianst a magnet as it gets close to the temp. You will also see the shaddow the recalescense move through the steel as it reaches temp and its crystal structure changes. (its a clue taht the carbon in the steel is in solution.) Then immediately quench it in a tank of sufficient size to bring the temp down rapidly. Once it is cool and clean of oil temper in an oven. The temp used will vary based on the steel but a good experimental range to try out is between 300 and 450.
All that to say I am enjoying your videos thanks for the effort you put in.

What a way to bring new life into an old file. Excellent! Really good result!
Thanks for taking the time to do these cool videos.
Intelligent and imaginative use of materials and methods - you sir are an artist as well as an engineer!

I've never made a knife, but this sure makes me want to try it. Freaking sweet!
+Matthew McLaren epoxy with uv reactive wood shavings lol
+Matthew McLaren No no no. The knife at the end will be encased in epoxy.
knife with epoxy sheath and handle
+Peter Brown On the lathe? or out of epoxy? I'm sure whatever you picked I would enjoy watching you make.
ur videos are great mate.. not sure why u havnt done a knife video yet... u should defo give it s go.. would be great to watch.
Big inspiration, your work is second to none! Man of many skills!
Awesome. Your videos are as great as the things you make. A real pleasure to watch.
NICE JOB MAN........... Its a neat thing buying a hunk of metal to make a tool, but its a VERY COOL THING to make a new tool from an old tool!
NICE JOB MR. JIMMY. D
I like your stuff and I love daggers. I m a bit confused about the handle and the ending of the handle
Wow. Very cool and inspirational Jimmy. Thanks!
you know your craft... making all kinds of things. Very inspirational.
This video is how i lost the "Diresta virginity", watched a lot of stuff since. It makes you wonder how good the content must be to make someone subscribe to you, but it was totally worth it.
would be nice if you could do some more explaining in your Videos, die example explaining how the hell you regrow you arm hair so fast :D
+muh1h1 хахааххахахаахах)))))
+muh1h1 As he said, this was an old file ;)
Mine seems to regrow over a day or two.
+Matthijs Alles i see what you did there :D
+muh1h1 just poop 3 times a day
again a beautiful peace of art, that never will go into mass production, jimmy you are awesome
I like to watch a handful of channels with this sort of content; But honestly your editing is the most satisfying, and the quality of your work is phenomenal
Thank You 🙏🏼
This is my favorite knife you've made.
Thank you jay!!!!
Jay Bates - Woodworking Videos jhg
9:41 i love how you sensually stuck the dagger in the sheath.
You certainly have made an excellent blade. Strong in both appearance and endurance. Well done.
Absolutely one of my favourites
我欣賞巧手有兩下子的工匠..就算是業餘...它都是一門藝術..你做得很棒...XD
空來地球體悟的人 I was thinkin the same thing !
NO No No, this is UNACCEPTABLE....where is the damn bottle opener in this dagger?
The screwdriver end on the hilt can be used as a bottle opener. Just like you use a Bic lighter to open bottles.
+Alex Jones just use your teeth
+Alex Jones Just do it like my grandparents always did it: stick the cap in your eye socket, crimp down hard (like you're holding a monocle in place), and twist it off.
Alex Jones x
Great video as usual jimmy, I just wanted to say you were the main reason I started making videos for my own channel. Thanks for the great content!
bloody great, i could watch this all day!
Half expecting to see a 'diresta' tattoo on his arm! Hell, everything else has got the logo on it!
Just his way of watermarking his videos.
You don't see his face in many of his videos.
Having his name on everything prevents others from claiming it's their video/work.
Does your camera have "Diresta" written on it too?
+rasgul oh my god
+rasgul lol
It's not because he thinks it's cool to have his name everywhere, it's because people like to steal video footage. The more you have your name in there the harder it is for some cheap idiot to get free subs because people think he or she can make knives or whatever else a video is of. Make sense?
+solosniper86 damn, never thought about it. But let be honest "Diresta" sounds great af. It's sounds like something precious and expensive. For me DIRESTA can be on everything in his videos.
wilku43 Agreed. :D
That is some fine craftsmanship
It has been a pleasure to see you in action , nice work . I especialy like that people are using what they have at hand . Greetings from Norway :-)
Yeah, not bad, but could you make a file out of a dagger?
You should have known the answer by now: yeah he can! It's Diresta for god's sake :p
masieh mitra Agreed 😀
Mr2at lol
Mr2at search clickspring he makes a some files😂
Wow. Diresta makes the absolute coolest shit, I would pay a lot of money for this knife and sheath right here. A real quality blade, one piece of steel, no plastic or cheap materials. This is true craftsmanship at work.
Bloody legend. Awesome work mate,, and some mad skills indeed. Keep up the fantastic work.
im a knifemaker , the time when you glued the leather to your platen gave me an idea ! thanks and awesome video
I thought he was going to make a sweet wooden handle for it.

Me too but ether way still looks awesome

Never thought I'd see someone bevel with a mill lol
Now you can say You Have!
He does it all the time
I've probably watched this video like 10 times now it's got to be one of my favorites if not my favorite
I am speechless. That was amazing.
Thats a Sharp build !!!
Rubber gloves instead of leather, to feel the heat better ? Or just a fashion statement ?
Lazy!! Mad love lutes!!
Is it possible to make a good living off of craftsmanship like this?
Hari he's wearing a Rolex submariner
yeah micheal culthuru (probably spelt wrong) gets commissioned to make massive swords, he seems to do pretty well for himself.
fascinating to watch your work. Thanks for the videos!
Beautiful piece!
Why don't temper the steel after quenching it?
+Felipe Rigon
i was just about to ask that. the video shows him re harden to form martensite but not temper. and i expected him to put some grips on it to.
whts that? quench temper and that another one. I don't remember
+Felipe Rigon Check the description man.

9:55 wrong hole
Lmao!
I like your skill and your aesthetic. It's all outstanding.
Beautiful work!
Enough of these iron daggers and he'll be a level 100 blacksmith in no time! #daedric
before he was a knifemaker, he was an adventurer...
video game reference, right?
More like; Before he was a knife maker he was and adventurer....until he took an arrow to the knee.
All this hard work and eventually the dagger remains without wooden handle .....???? Hahhahah .LOL ✌️😁👍
it looks awesome, couldn't take my eyes off , even for 1 second. best of luck.. looking forward for more..
Great video as always and thanks for sharing you wonderful work!
Filing a file recorded onto a file
Floshmio 10 if he makes any money off of this, he'll have to file taxes on the profit he made filing a file that he recorded onto a file.
and place it into a filing cabinet
Stale Memes file-ception
Floshmio lll
10:00 why does it look so sensual
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT
I didn't notice until you pointed that out,
i was about to comment the same thing.
KNIFE MAKING GONE SEXUAL
+Elias Vodka DAMN
Outstanding job!
I have to do a Phoenix project for school this year. I really really wanted to make a knife and then I saw this video. I'm going to try it! Thanks for the inspiration!
geez, could you mill any closer to that vice? lol
+Micah Montoya So long as it doesn't touch, closer is sturdier.
Mike (o\!/o)
+Moholo 88 What would happen if they touches? I mean besides the vise got milled.
+Rexus King Well, for one thing, the vise would get milled. :P
+Rexus King It's probably not harder than the endmill, so my guess is not much at all.
Rexus King nothing, the vice just gets a little bit chooched.
I will file this one under awesome - sheath is sweet - do you have a local Tandy Leather?
+Nick Ferry Thank you Nick , all my leather are scraps from TaylorForrest.com chairs! my GF!!
jimmydiresta very cool - I miss having a local leather tool company near me
+Nick Ferry Lol file... I see what you did there
+jimmydiresta
I notice that you didn't do any normalization before or tempering after the quench...
I understand you might have cut out normalization, (heating the blade to 1500f and letting cool to room temperature two or three times, it relieves stresses in the steel and refines grain structure. making the steel stronger) and if you just quench the steel it'll be almost glass hard, you can temper the easy way, a good hour soak at 450-475f *or* you can carefully feather a pencil torch on the center of the blade until you start to see the first tinges of brown or blue on the peak. you want the edges to be a light gold/straw color. I personally prefer the oven method. less likely to over-soften the blade.

That is a beautiful knife and sheath Jimmy!
Sweet! I've been wanting to make a dagger! Nice design and thanks for the very informative and direct video. Excellent editing btw.
How come he puts his name everywhere?
+SharinganCA my content get stolen and re cut , my branding in the frames of video is my only protection.
Fair enough.
+SharinganCA See "Facebook Freebooting - Smarter Every Day 128" from another respectable UA-cam which had the same problem.
Because he made it so he is allowed to trademark it!
+jimmydiresta you used that diresta branded press machine to emboss the logo on sheath. Did you made that press machine from a pneumatic car jack?
Major talent!!!! Lovin' it.
lovely work of art
One of your nicest works ☺
Jimmy, my son is spelling words with the silent k this week. I showed him this video and he says, "Dad, here's a practice sentence - I saw Jimmy DiResta make a file into a knife, knife" :) Hope you're having a great week in the shop.
WOW! Superb job, Jimmy. I loved how it turned out! I want that file dagger now! haha
You take a lot of pride in your work I honor you for that
Cool reuse of old stuff, I like that the handle kept some of its origins, so you can see what it was previously :)
Beautiful work
think I've watched this video at least 10 times. love your work
aw man! wish I had found this video before I started on my file based knife, love how you left the handle with the file design still on it. O well, theres plenty of old files about!
That looks pretty cool, I like the handle.
love your videos, nice tools at work
i found this relaxing!
amazing skills brother!! i want one.
Watching this video today 5 Nov- 2016 at 05:54 am, Pakistan.

Very cool three piece sheath!
I can't believe my eyes! Rusted file made into a dagger! I wish I can buy it. It's sooooo fancy !XD
The way you can freehand a band saw so accurately is impressive.
It looks beautiful.
You are a legend man. Cheers !!
I love your videos brother! Very inspiring!
