Welcome to my channel!
I am a weekend warrior knife maker diving headfirst into this amazing craft. Join me as I create one of a kind knives, restore old and forgotten tools, and share fast-paced build videos of my newly acquired skills. My goal is to entertain but also to educate and share the specific steps I take to create something. I'm by no means an expert and I don't use fancy grinders or heat treat ovens but, with enough time and effort, I think anyone can make awesome-functional knives.

IMPORTANT: Knifemaking/bladesmithing can be very dangerous. Always use proper protection (eye, ear, lung). Please do your own research and use your best judgment before attempting the things you see in this video.
Nice job on the knife and nice edit!
Thank you! It was a fun one.
Turned out real nice! I've never seen a handle like that, good idea!
And yes, it is very sharp! Subscribed!
Thanks! Just trying to incorporate the resin in new ways. Thanks for subscribing!
Very good, thanks
Thanks for watching!
Love the channel great videos I just getting into knife making I love it
Thanks my guy, let me know if you ever have any questions!
Good stuff man. Keep making more and posting and you'll get some attention.
Thanks! These videos take ages to make so comments like these are deeply appreciated.
@@99echo The editing is top notch, so I imagine! Nice work, wish I had that kind of skill.
aeb-l, id check that with a rockwell set of files. that looked awfully low in color to be at 1950 for a quench . might help putting a pipe or something in the forge for more even heat too
A pipe is a great idea! Thanks for the tip. I do have a high temp pyrometer that read 1950 but that was inside the the forge and I've been told those aren't the most reliable. I am looking into HT ovens, just can't decide if it should come before a 2x72.
@@99echo depends. i built my own 2x72 just a simple h frame style with a gas strut(old hicky forge has a good video on this). i have a pyrometer inside my forge as well and it does fairly well but i also have it inside the pipe so no direct flames are touching it. you could always go by color too but that takes more practice to get it just right(i cant get it just right yet).
I'll have to check that out. Yeah going by color must take years haha. Doesn't help that I'm outside and the colors look different in sunlight.
How hard do you approximate the heat treatment gets it to?
Since I'm using a forge (versus a HT oven) and a rinky-dink toaster oven there are some uncontrolled variables but, I did come close to the manufacturer's recommended heat treat and tempering instructions which means I should be right at about HRC 59. Adding Cryo to the tempering process would hypothetically bring it up to HRC 62.
Hate to break it to ya but AEB-L is a stainless steel.. it needs to be in an oxygen free environment in order to hardness otherwise you lose all the carbon out of the steel and won't successfully harden. Beautiful handle though
Thanks for the info Zack. In my research though I did find that while the stainless foil is used to reduce decarb, it doesn't affect the hardness of the blade since the thin layer that did leech out on the surface is ground away. You don't lose ALL the carbon in the blade. I am however missing out on a couple points on the HRC scale by not doing a cryo treatment. Do you cryo? It is performing quite well in the hands of a chef right now but I guess time will tell.
Also, why in the world is stainless foil so expensive 😂
@@99echo no I don't do cryo. For stainless I send it out to get professionally heat treated. Once I get an evenheat ill be doing my own.
Yeah I'd send it if I wasn't making videos haha. An Evenheat is the dream! Do you have an Instagram page or something? I'd love to see your work.
@@99echo yes sir, @fencelineknives_ or www.fencelineknives.com
is this jacob's knife?
It's not, I'll be posting his video next week!
Damn, that’s what you call splittin hairs! Literally!
Haha thanks! My outdoor chef knife was a little sharper too
@@99echo do you sell your knives or are they keepers? Not that I can afford one but just curious 🧐
These last couple knives I did were for family and friends. I'm currently working on a couple custom orders and in the future I plan on designing and making a "signature" knife that I'll sell. I have to perfect my heat treating process before that though. I also plan on doing some giveaways on YT and Instagram so stay tuned!
@@99echo oh your damn straight I’m going to stay tuned. I would give my eye teeth for a custom knife!
@@BryceBower haha sweet, thanks Bryce!
Where do you buy your abrasives?
Red label abrasives mostly. The zirconia belts last forever
@@99echo sweet. Ill have to get my hands on some. I've just recently started learning the craft and im going through cheap home depot belts like crazy.
Yeah they hold up nicely. What kind of steel are you grinding?
@@99echo as of now I'm using files but I plan on getting some 5160 or 80crv2
Ah yeah those files will dull a belt real quick. Alpha knife supply has good steel options.
but it aint a kiritsuke at all thou :S
Closest blade shape I could think of, minus the single edge.
@@99echo so a reverse tanto tip makes a chef knife a kiritsuke? 🤓 Nah, don't just use names cuz they sound cool. A kiritsuke can be double beveled, but it has a very straight profile. Very low curvature. Not trying to be unfriendly I just see a lot of ppl now that use any name they find and throw it on there and that gives all the viewers the wrong name too. So just a friendly tip. Read up a little :)
@@wurre 👍 what would you call it?
@@99echo now that's the hard part! I'd probably call it something absurd lik a k-tip gyuto or k-tip chef knife ;-P
Yeah my next option was K-tip chef knife. I love japanese blade shapes but don't like hidden tangs which makes it that much harder. Figured people would understand that it's my interpretation of the mentioned style. I appreciate your input!
