Ultra Sharp Paring Knife - Making My First Knife

  • Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
  • I've made several sharp blades for projects over the years but this is my first attempt at making just an actual knife. With only a few bumps along the way, I think my first knife turned out well, which is not surprising since I had access to the proper tools. I used 1084 steel, a bandsaw actually designed for metal, and a 2x72 belt grinder. I was able to use a forge to harden by quenching in oil. Ran two tempering cycles and it came out hard, who would have thought? Hope you enjoy the video!

    For whatever reason that knife just makes me super uncomfortable. It looks rad, it's sharp as hell, and I don't trust my clumsy hands to not vorpal blade myself with it. Excellent work!

    That knife looks fantastic! I’ve said it again and again but this video is an example of why I love this channel! You show how most projects aren’t how you plan them and how sometimes you need to adapt to how the project is going to make it work! Most channels don’t show the struggles and just show the end project. Great vid Jairus and I’d like to see more knives, (I especially love that etching)

  • @ConnorHolland

    Pretty amazing for a first knife, I really like the wasp design and how it relates to the delicacy and sharpness

  • @maybeitsnotsuchagoodidea490
    @maybeitsnotsuchagoodidea490 3 роки тому +4

    Awesome stuff! In the future you can use a magnet to check for heat treat temperature. It looked a little hot, but since you didn't forge it there weren't any stresses in the metal.

  • @HavocHounds1988
    @HavocHounds1988 3 роки тому

    A good way to know if your blade is hot enough to put in the quench is to put a magnet to it, if it doesn't magnetize then it's hot enough. Another trick I've seen is placing some salt at the front of the tube, when the salt begins to melt you should be good since the melting temperature for salt is about the same temp you want to harden a blade.

  • @BespokeCarpentry
    @BespokeCarpentry 3 роки тому +1

    Amazing knife, what could help though in the future is after you temper it, take two pieces of angle iron, and while still hot clamp it between them while it cools. You can also temper it like that as well. Keeps it from warping. Awesome video though, super cool knife. Almost looks like a Japanese carpenters knife.

    First off awesome video, loved how you finished it with that wasp etching, totally should name the blade Stinger considering well its sharp and small like a wasps stinger. Secondly huge thanks for that air brush link, I needed to pick one up for my D&D minis but never wanted a huge air compressor so this is perfect for me

  • @DarkestVampire92
    @DarkestVampire92 3 роки тому

    You really should make more knives. The first one is always a big screw-up, and a learning experience- Its the second, third, and fourth where your ability starts to shine and you can make really awesome things.

  • @KnightsWithoutATable
    @KnightsWithoutATable 3 роки тому

    You can test for quenching temperature using a magnet. If the steel is no longer magnetic, it is hot enough to quench.

  • @MicroWazzle
    @MicroWazzle 2 роки тому

    When you were quenching the blade you made a error, you don't have to reheat the blade to fix it because after quenching you have a certain period of time where the blade is still malleable enough that you can bend warps out of it. Also reheating it like you did and quenching it multiple times interduces stress into the blade so when you go to cut something with it it might crack you also should have normalized it which basically is you heat it up and let it air cool 1 to 3 times to relieve the stress that has built up.

  • @TheLord0Ice0Wind

    @justinmcwilliams6759 3 роки тому

    Looks great! I'll say from my own experience forging a few blades and making a few with the cut blank method like this, there was a bit too much grinding without water cooling. Normally when grinding a blade I will cool it as soon as it starts to get even the slight bit warm.

    Wow, That was an incredible journey! x10,000
    What a beautiful and inspired project. I adore the entire layout!
    The etching alone is truly exquisite!
    If I may say; the Wasp lines were alive, speaking with such incredible passion.
    The etching looked to me as if it was the profile of the "cerebral cortex", opening or expanding into the creative ether, or the "divine". All wrapped up into such a practical and elegant design.
    Well Done!
    I've always loved this channel, as I've seen it pop up from time to time, yet I was surprised to find I had not been a subscriber... Until Now!
    You've made me a believer :)
    Very much looking forward to more of your own creative projects.
    I don't know if it's you're thing to expound upon your personal beliefs / philosophies that you grapple with in your videos, but that was so refreshing just to glimpse into your personal thoughts.
    It would be phenomenal to hear more of that in your up coming projects, or maybe, a solo video dedicated specifically to the philosophical operation of your mind during the creative prosses?
    Best of luck
    and thank you again.
    It was truly inspiring.

    That is one nice looking blade! i actually love the shingle grind blades aka chisel grind. Tip practice the grind on some cheap mild steal and on the back side put a very slight hollow grind along the entire flat ground section. I had a tanto bladed knife with that type of slight hollow grind and it was just stupid easy to resharpen. 12k wet dry sand paper a bit of glass and wetted sandpaper lay the blade flat and a few lap strokes on the back side and it was razor sharp again. Those triangular shaped blades are probably one of the best utility blade patterns you can choose. They can be used for every thing from pealing a potato to skinning small game for pelts etc. A friend of mine was a fur trapper and his blades he used for skinning were small triangular blades about 3 inches by 1 at the widest. He could skin a rabbit a muskrat etc in about 5 minutes with those.
    So think fine detail cutting to basically any thing else. Make your self a nice kydex sheath for that and you will have a knife you will use every single day!
