As an engineer with 40 years experience - I can say that I wish I had your skill set at creating not only tools, but incredible works of art. That knife could become an actual heirloom, passed down over many generations, from father to son (or daughter). Can't say the same for the imported junk knives....!
@@jusme8060 I’m a lucky man no matter what! I’ve tried every eyewear/face shield/sealed mask on the planet and none of them allow me clear undistorted vision. Until I find something that gives me that, I’ll keep risking it. Thanks for stopping by! 👊
That was pretty interesting to watch. Thanks. Are to circular cutouts in the tang (hidden under the scales) to reduce weight or some other reason? Is the top of the blade 90 degrees for striking a fire-steel?
@@stickbowsniper The tang is just drilled for weight reduction and balance, and a sharp 90 degree spine is featured on all my knives. Thanks for watching!
Great Video Jacob! I really enjoyed watching this. You did a really great job showing how much work goes into one blade. plus all the equipment and jigs needed to get it all done. FYI I fond out why My UA-cam channel is not being shown as it should.
And THIS is why Jacob will always make my Blackwater Knife Company knife designs as long as he’ll have me! And THIS is why I will continue to buy VGKCo knives and support him! Because he is the freakin master!! He’s not a “handle assembler” like so many other so-called knife makers. So-called makers that purchase blanks and then send those blanks off to be water jet and CNC machine profiled. Who purchase pre-made, pre-cut knife handle blocks. Who then screw on those pre-made knife handle blocks, do a minimal amount sanding, and put an edge on knives that they didn’t make. Then sell their crappy finished knives for ridiculous prices (because they have to pay for all that outsourcing). That’s NOT a knife maker - that’s a “knife handle assembler”. That’s a designer, passing themselves off as a maker. There are a lot of fantastic makers, but there’s also a lot of frauds. Jacob is not a fraud! He’s a knife maker, and one of the very best. He sells custom quality USA hand-made knives for production knife prices and that’s why he’s the freakin man!! BUY A HUNTSMAN!! Support USA makers and designers who do it the right way. Great job as always, brother! 🇺🇸⚔️🔥

Reminds me, a little, of a Puma White Hunter or British SAS. Looks like it's going be a solid knife.

Looks like a waidblatt
@@max_fjellstorm little bit of bolo and waidblatt influence it seems, thanks for stopping by!
It is too bad you can't keep that oil blue black, this knife would look awesome in a two tone with dark flats and a polished bevel.
