What do yall think about this blade design? Would you carry a boat knife? (FYI - Corby Fastener Math around 11:46)
I would definitely carry this knife. I love the wharncliffe blade shape. Great build!
@@bbowling4979 Cool deal! Thanks for watching. Glad you liked it! Have a good day sir!
It’s a beautiful knife but not a boat knife. Boat knifes have no point at the end so you don’t risk stabbing yourself with the end while on rough waters.
@@jerryjenkins6071 Good deal. I think I've learned that this blade design is a "wharncliffe". Cheers man. Have a Merry Christmas.
I carry a small D2 Wharncliffe all the time especially when I'm doing woodwork and want to scribe chisel lines. Works great for leatherwork as well. Personally, I like a chisel grind for these as I think it give a more accurate or at least an easier edge to work with for layout. Meticulous work Mr. Red. Very nice.
A boat knife is a knife you drop overboard while fishing.
LOL
AA boat knife also referred to as a rigging knife is a specially designed knife used to cut heavy rope. It may have a serrated edge for sawing through line, or a heavy blade suitable for hitting with a mallet to drive the knife through. Folding tools, often in combination with a marlinspike and shackle key, are convenient and portable
Jim Patterson thank you Mr Patterson for the information! Thanks for watching too!
You're absolutely correct that the use of the knife on a boat is for Sailors cutting rope
You brought up the boat knife purpose and I see a lot of different answers. I’ve wondered this about many types of knife styles in general. Could you do a video on the purposes of different blade shapes and styles? For example tell us why a hunting knife is a certain shape or has certain characteristics that makes it good for hunting or skinning or whatever. I’d love to see that educational video.
I'd love to see that video as well
Glad I'm not the only one spending all my time making tools and equip for myself instead of buying them. My wife is always telling me I make more things to make knives than actual knives and this is 100% true when you're starting out.
No joke! It's part of the fun in my opinion! It's nice having equipment you made! Sometimes I must admit it's worth buying thought (like the counter bore for corbies....). Thanks for watching!
Real beauty!!!!!! Awesome!!! Man, I am an artist and was a designer for 20 years I know what I'm talking about...
Cool deal, thank you sir! Glad you enjoyed it.
I worked on a Destroyer museum ship for a few years. A rigging or boat knife I carried had the spike for knot tying rope end manipulation(like making crown knots at the end of a rope). At least that's we used it for. I was told by an old sailor from WWII that the blade shape was as such that you could cut your boot laces and drop your boots if you ended up in the water for whatever reason. You could do it all by feel and drop the water filled weight of your boots without worrying about cutting yourself or getting binded up in the laces in an emergency situation. We were taught to "straight lace" our boots as well to make it easier to slide the knife down to cut the laces. Made sense and I still think that's why it's shaped the way it is. Back in the old days, boots were heavy leather and if you ended up overboard for any reason, you needed to get them off as fast as possible. That went along with "wooly pullys". A long wool sweater that was worn folded under at the waist. Again, if you went into the water, you'd cut your boots off and roll down the bottom hem of your wool sweater and tuck your legs up inside it in a ball. Apparently wool retains 70% heat retention even when wet. This whole deal could keep you alive and allow an extended rescue time in cold waters. That's all I know,..... :) oh, the 4k looks awesome!! :)
Dude that's some awesome information! I'd never guess any of that! I could imagine the importance with heavy boots like that... Thanks for the feed back on the resolution, thanks for watching, and thanks for your comment! 👍
To a knife lover a knife is like jewelry. Certain guys would wear a certain style watch becauce it appeals to him and it becomes a personal item close to him. The can be said about knives. There are a lot of knive makers on UA-cam right now. Most of them are very good however they don't always make knives you find appealing. So I really want to compliment you on your work. Your knives reflect exactly what in my opinion should be a good practical usable knive, that at
the same time dubbles as eye candy.
Thank you very much for your comment sir! I'll do my best to keep the videos entertaining and coming yall's way! Have a great week!
Checks if blades straight. "That's a miracle" 🤣🤣 nice blade!
Lol, cheers sir!
I appreciate the organization in your work area mine looks like a hurricane rolled through most the time and it just makes things more difficult 😂
LOL
The Improv “Corby Math” lesson is one of the reasons this is top tier. You just saved me so much time figuring all that out on my own or scouring the forums. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
A boat knife should have two significant features. First it should have a straight edge, mormally seen with Wharncliffe or Sheepsfoot blades. This is because it is easier to cut heavy and thick ropes laying on the boats railings or planks of the deck. The other feature is a more broad and blunt tip, often Sheepsfoot blades are used. As someone allready mentioned, it was made like this to avoid accidents on the rolling and stomping sailboats. If you want to see an still produced boat (pocket) knife in the more historic shape, look for the Otter Ankermesser or an French Londres or L´Armour, fixed blades are made the same way
Thanks a million for the detailed information! I knew so little about "boat knives" before making this one. Via the comments on this video I've been learned up good!
@@RedBeardOps While the blunt tip I'm sure is for safety at sea, the folklore behind it -true or not- was that a sea captain would break the tips off of the crews knives to decrease the likelihood of a successful mutiny. The crew of the old ships often being captured by or endentured to service of the ship, didn't always want to be there.
J your a rocket scientist in knife makers body. This is actually a compliment
At least I know if I follow your lead I can land in the exact spot on the moon in which I intended. Or at least I’ll be able to make a perfect knife!!!! You’re freaking awesome dude. I so appreciate all the information you share with us.
Hey man, really appreciate the praise! Although I'm not sure I'm a knifemaking rocket scientist! The more we do with knifemaking the more we'll learn for sure. Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos!
Love your work! Happy to see the stonewash system like it!
Thank you sir! And thanks for the idea on that stone wash tumbler! Cheers man.
Me too
Like always sr you do outstanding job and explain everything thank for sharing you're knowledge
Hey Miguel! Thanks for watching man. Glad you're enjoying the videos. Take it easy!
Hell yes I would carry that knife. You did an amazing job on that knife.
Kenneth Chapman Thank you very much!! Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
Awesome job on the boat knife. Great job on the video as well. Clear and concise.
Thank you very much for the comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! The next one will be making a simple kydex sheath for this knife! Cheers man.
Great video , you are building a knife so easy and so smooth due to your skills and having the professional tools as well . Great , I like your performance.
Thank you very much!
As a new knife maker I really appreciate this video great job there was some great information in here
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video J. As always. This was one of your best!!! 👍👍👍
Thank you! Really happy you liked this one. Took me some time on the editing side since it was a high resolution.
I'm a former Merchant Marine sailor and we lovingly call the knife a sailor's knife
Thank you greatly sir! Your comment is much appreciated
Just made my brother a boat knife for christmas. Love the channel. So far i built the etcher and the boat knife.
Heck yeah Ben! Really happy you're getting some value out of these videos. I bet your bother loved it!? Thanks for sharing this.
That's a good design, I finished one that's close to it on my channel. Sometimes it's nice to make the more simpler knives. The design is known as a sheeps foot or wharncliffe.
Thank you sir! Yeah, I like the design too. Pretty neat looking. Thanks for watching! I like your shop setup!
@@RedBeardOps boat knives generally have no point on tip they are often dropped so the tips are often curved called a "sheeps foot"...also they can be made to float....handle scales should be textured and hi viz colors help ....steel should have great anti corosion properties with the ability to hold a very sharp edge as the knife must be able to cut very thick rigging all day
Great video enjoyed it, and learned something new. The end product looks sharp.
Awesome! I'm glad you liked it. Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting. Really glad to hear you got something out of this one. This boat knife turned out pretty darn sharp... I'm tempted to make more of them.
Great build dude!! Thanks for the content and lesson 👍😎
Really happy you liked it man! Thanks for watching! Have a good one.
Wax paper during glue up is such a great idea. I’ve had problems on every project with the glue coming out and getting on the scales. The grinder will fix it but I always dislike how much material I have to remove sometimes. That’s a very valuable detail. Thanks for that.
Great video. I love that you spend time showing how to finish a knife and work the handle. I am just about to start making knives, and I am going to start with pre shaped and pre heat treated blades. I figure I will start with learning those final finishing items that really make a knife shine. Keep up the good work.
That's a good plan Jon! Cheers sir!
The finished product is beautiful. I would carry it with pride on my sailboat.
Thank you very much sir! That's good to know... I'm not a sailor myself. I really appreciate your comment and I'm very glad you enjoyed the video; have a great day!
good job; thankyou for showing the math on the Corbi bolts
Cheers sir! Glad you found it useful!
Nice design sir. Very informative on the corby fasteners. Again another outstanding video.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed that. I figured those bolts are a mystery to some. I love them!
Like the nice simple design. Awesome knife as usual!!!
sirmaximus100 thank you sir! Really glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
It is a very nice design and an awesome knife
Glad I found your channel.
I am getting back into knife making after a move across the country. I actually lived in west Texas (McCamey) and was a mud engineer for a few years. It was cool to find somebody from that part of the world.
Really enjoy your channel bro, thanks!
Heck yeah man! Glad you found it too! Good luck getting back into the game. Have a great weekend!
Looks fantastic.....I like that blade design could be used in many different ways.
Thank you sir! I like it too. I'll probably need to make some more of these... Thanks a bunch for watching!
beautiful knife man!, thanks for sharing your experience and tips
CHeers sir! Thank y ou!
Great knife style, wharncliffe shape. The main reason they used this type of shape on boats was that there was no pointed end so if the knife slipped due to the rocking of the boat you were less like to stab yourself. Plus it was heavy duty to be hacking rope or notching out for rigging blocks etc. One of my favourite styles of knife, very durable and usefull.
Thank you very much sir!
Great looking knife. I enjoy your videos.
Thanks John! Glad you're enjoying them.
I couldn't tell you what kinda knife it is. And tbh, I didn't think I'd like it from the thumbnail pic, but by the time you finished it,,,,I'd definitely add it to my EDC rotation. Another great video man
They NateDawg, really appreciate that! The profile grew on me too. Cheers man. Stay safe.
Great tip. Not to grind scales with 60 grit into the steel. Never thought about the scratches I would have to remove from the steel. Thanks
E.T. Preppin yep, those big scratches can be painful!!
Thankyou for the corby tips
Thank you for watching sir! Glad you got something out of it. I love the corby fasteners... Great piece of mind. Super tough.
Beautiful knife👍👍👍
Thank you Jon!
Очень красивый нож!!! А Ваша мастерская и оборудование, вообще восхищает!!!
Спасибо большое! Желаю хорошей недели!
I really enjoy your videos. Excellent job sir.
Thank you very much!
Hey brother nice build! I was shown to clean those belts with a wire brush, just turn the grinder on a slow to medium speed and you'll be all set!
Heck yeah, I'll give that a go! Thanks for the tip sir. Thanks for watching too!
If you took that knife on to a ship the Bossun would snap the point off with vice and lump hammer. And yes my profile picture is me at work, on a ship.
Bloody lovely knife though ;)
Thanks for the feedback sir! Glad you enjoyed the video. Have a great week
Another great video, couldn’t take advantage of 4K but I really like your voiceover presentation style
Airborne Mike thank you sir! Glad you enjoyed this one and thanks for commenting.
sublime!
Thank you!
Man, 4k?? Really stepping up👍 But man, corby math? thats way over my head🤣 The knife turned out great as usual. I really like the simple clean designs. 👍👍 And i uave no idea how to cleanthose scotch brite belts. From what I understand they have an abrasive imbedded into them.🤷♂️ Let me know if you find a way🙂
OUTDOORS55 I’m trying! ... yuge file sizes... I read a few post on how to clean the trash out of them and get some more life... more research is needed for sure. They’re so expensive that it seem worth it. Thanks for watching, man! Take it easy!
JKeetonKnives yeah for sure! 4k does give you a lot of flexibility in post if you export in 1080. I only use it for shots i can only get once and want different angles/ zoom capability. 👍
@@OUTDOORS55 Heck yeah, what I don't like about shooting 4K is that on my camera I don't have 4K 60 FPS... so slowmo is tough. I found that in Divinchi Resolve you can create "optimized media files" to do your editing (which will render your timeline quickly while messing around with it)... then you can export in the full 4K. I would of saved a ton of time if I knew that from the start! LOL... very jump without.... Cheers man.
JKeetonKnives tou can do proxy files too if you needed to. Final cut seems to handle everything well so ive never had to optimize or use proxys. I want 4k 60 bad, but no one makes a camera that has 4k60 that also has good autofocus. 😂
Well done!
Thanks for the clear instructions!
Subbed!
Thank you sir! Really glad you liked the video! Have a good one. Hope to have more good stuff to come. Cool restorations on your page too!
Thanks man!
I think I gonna start making my own knives soon, so maybe me and you can collaborate on a project together in the near future!
@@Take_And_Make you're going to be hooked! It's addicting for sure!
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya
Thanks for all your comments! Have a great week!
Cool knife, excellent work.
Liked & subscribed.
THank you very much sir! The more I look at it the more I like this design. Thanks again for watching!

i used scotch brite pads in the cold work glass shop i was 9to5ing at. we cleaned with iso alcohol and a air chuck on a compressor to blow the gunk out. things last a long time. till they wear away or come apart pretty much
Nice! Cheers Mike
This is a sick knife bro I would love to have one
Thanks Alex!
You should try the 36 grit VSM belts, they hog metal and gives a great manicure.
LOL! Those things are vicious!
No idea what a boat knife is but the video quality was great. Nice knife well made. 😸
Thank you very much sir for the feedback and for watching! There were some additional challenges with filming and editing 4K, but I think I've found some tricks that will make it easier next time. Have a good one!
Hı Man. Good job. İ like this handle material.
Thank you very much! Really happy you enjoyed it! That is Green/Black G-10 from alpha knife supply.
Super
Good
Great build! Beautiful knife that I would be happy to carry!
I have a question on Scotch Brite belts! I bought one for my 1X30 and no matter how much stretching I've tried to do, I don't have enough adjustment to get the damn thing on my machine!
I there a trick to it? I actually did get it on the machine but, it was so tight It wouldn't budge!
Hey Kim, thanks for your comment! This was a fun build for sure! I don't know the answer on your issue. I'd get with the manufacture of the belt because it sounds like it was made too short for your machine. I really like the finish they provide though.
Great vid! When you clean up the spine with the scotch brite belt, does it mess with your 1000 grit finish? I tried that on a knife with some stabilized wood and I noticed it seemed to mess up my hand sanding.
Great question, I've had it happen before. I try to use a very light touch and only make one pass. I have come back with the 1000 grit before to make long single passes. So it doesn't mess me up all the time, but it has before! Thanks for watching sir. Glad you enjoyed it. (Side note, I want to get a super fine scotch brite for this purpose.)
Just made myself one of these following this video.
Now I'm prepared if I get attacked by any boats.
Nice!
I would carry that knife everywhere.
E.T. Preppin thank you!!
Yes. It's a boat knife. Boat knives had Warancliff blades so sailors could cut rope & line & the captain didn't have to worry about a sailor cutting oneself or another .
Thank you sir!
Hi from Saskatchewan Canada Mr. J. Or should I say mr. Keeton. Curious what J stands for?
I am very impressed with your video and your teaching style as it is very straightforward and thorough. I am totally UA-cam trained and appreciate you guys putting out these videos. I love your Corby math! It looks like you make awesome knives and your video quality is very good. I hope someday to make some videos that people will enjoy but I'm pretty new as I've only made knives for a little over a year. My skills have improved drastically since I started but I want to get much better. I'm going to the Las Vegas blade show in January. I don't suppose you'll be there? Anyways thank you and very nice quality nice and video you did there!! 👍👍⚔🗡
Thank you for the kind words. The J stands for James. I'm really happy you enjoyed the Corby math. I will not be out at blade show... but let me know how it goes! Cheers man, thanks again for watching.
A boat knife is basically a knife with a broken tip. So people were “less” encouraged to start a mutiny and start stabbing
Thank you Nunez!
They're made for cutting/chopping through thick and heavy rope They either have a serait edge or is a heavy enough blade to be hit With a mallet to drive-through The rope.
Very cool, thank you sir! And thanks for watching!
@@RedBeardOps no problem, keep up the good work your videos are amazing.
@@fear-_-ful6189 Thank you!!
One thing I must say.. I work and live near Bristol docks in Britain and have used a boat knife since I was 14 years old. I’m now 33. I can say instantly that any real boat knife user would hate this...the stock used is way too thin for one. Wide blade is characteristic of a boat knife. Tbh this is more of a modern edc with a wharncliffe profile... the actual product is beautiful though.. better used by a hunter than us riggers....
Charlie Bowen thank you for your comment, sir. Good points made!
That came out great man. I’m new to your channel. Keep up the great work 😎🤙
Thank you very much! I'll do my best
carnauba wax? nice finish...
Yep that's right! Good stuff for sure. Cheers sir!
What is the benefit of using Corbies as opposed to regular pins ?
You're not relying on epoxy in a smooth hole. That's not to say straight pins don't do a good job... just stronger with loveless or corbies.
Where did you get your table for the bandsaw ? Thanks great video and nice knife .
Right here! Thanks for watching and thanks for the praise. amzn.to/2LN9QoE
Thank you gonna get it
@@waltb5326 Sweet. I love the thing. Here is my review - ua-cam.com/video/lbh13NJbRzk/v-deo.html
Nice blade man.. do you not get belt bump with 400 grit and up belts? Do you have a glass platen? Or how do you deal with it? Thanks
I do have a glass platten. It is more noticeable at 400 than 220. I try and go light handed on those grits. It hasn't been too big of an issue so far for me. I want to try a soft-backed platten eventually to see how that performs at higher grits.
@@RedBeardOps I have a glass platen on my grizzly but I dont on my pheer. So I get alot of belt bump on 400 and up grit belts.. I tried a piece of leather taped on and it works pretty well but I dont trust it to be flat.. I guess I'll have to get another glass platen.
@@anthonystrunk5360 10-4, that platten makes a heck of a difference on the flatness side.
If I like it or not?! I mean idk about everyone else but I like being able to count every hair in your beard. 😂
MusicalWeasel LOL, yes! Guess that makes 4K worth it!!
@@RedBeardOps my phone or UA-cam doesn't even give me a 4k option
@@nateand3 Cheers man, I don't think phones can view 4K. You'll need a 4K display or TV. But that being said, shooting videos in 4K will make 1080p renders better!
It's called a sheeps foot it also alot of times come with a Mariner spike it's like a big needle made the untire tight ropes usually as a whole in the and just like a needle with the string attached to hold onto it easier or to clip it to your belt loop the no point on the knife is so you don't stab yourself while on the water rocking back-and-forth
Sorry about the spelling errors I was talking and didn't proof read.
I should have said what you made is a modified sheepsfoot. Usually the tip radius is more round making less of a tip. That said I really like the design you came up with more than a full sheepsfoot good job.
@@garetkonigsfeld2 Thank you sir for the information! It's always good NOT to stab yourself! Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Wspaniały film instruktażowy. Jaką stal polecasz do tego noża? Pozdrowienia z Polski.

@@RedBeardOps Dziękuję i pozdrawiam.
👍👍👍
Thanks!
Great video and explanations as always. Have you tried a plunge line jig to get the plunges Dead on?
Are you talking about a file jig being used as a stop against the side of the platten? I tried this a long time ago on my old grinder but not recently... maybe it's time to get me a carbide file jig! I could see it helping. Do you use one? - Right now I'm just going back and forth until they're even with the 120 grit belt... takes some time to get right!
@@RedBeardOps I use a carbide file jig to make my plunges the same.. pretty accurate everytime..but you do a fantastic job by eye.
@@RedBeardOps Yes. The carbide file guide. Just makes plunges easy and keep both sides exactly even.
@@anthonystrunk5360 Very cool.. I will need to try this out. It does take the most amount of time during my grinding process. Every once and a while I loose a blade due to it as well (aka the blade not passing my plunge line quality control!)
@@NRiggiKnives Well, hell. I need to try one. Do you have a recommendation on supplier?
A problem I see is the plunge..... many boat knives come with a plunge. No.. as a life long boatman and rigger you want the edge along the edge completely.. that corner is used to twist as it has maximum controllability.. much like a cleaver... I make my own and don’t have a plunge just edge all the way. You would be surprised by the increase in productivity
Thanks for the information Charlie.
Where can you buy his knives ? I don’t see a website link
Hey Omar, I'm not taking custom orders and don't have an inventory. When I get one finished up, I'll post it for sale on Instagram. Cheers sir.
Also called a boatswain (bosun) knife.
Try looking up bosan knife or rope knife
Thanks Darryle!

A boat knife has a flat tip so if you dro it while working 8m the rigging it doesn't ice pic anybody underneath you. This is a common feature not a defining one.
If you need a spike on the knife for knots the thumb guard was pointed or the end of the handle popped off along with a spike teathered with a cord. So it would converse on a telephone wire and wrap itself up before giving a soon to be very irate seaman the manditory headache previously mentioned. Although if you drooped your knife you had more things to worry about at that point.
What do I do if it still has the bend after the second go around in the oven?😬
Keep going! Third cycle
I like the design of this knife what is the price for this knife
Hey Joe, This knife was sold. I sell any inventory I create on Instagram.
I see you're using a 3m respirator with a bandana underneath? How do you find that works? As a dude with a full beard, respirators are hard to come by, and I cant seem to get a resp-o-rator in canada. I desperately need to get something that works decently for the sake of my lungs
Man... I use the resp-o-rator now days. I'm not sure I can recommend the older set up I used.
Where did you buy the small clamp you were using to hold the blade to the G10??
Ronald Woodruff hello sir! I have a link to purchase that clamp in the description section of this video : ua-cam.com/video/7Zio-gupl-U/v-deo.html

@@RedBeardOps Thanks, I ordered it!!!
@@texasblacksmith10 Sweet man. I really like those Kant Twist Clamps. I need a few more of them in different sizes. Very handy to have around! Let me know how it works out for you.
Nice video. I think a boat knife is a smaller version of a riggers knife. They were made so a rope could be cut on the deck without smashing fingers. Similar to a chef's knife but with a sheep's foot design.
@@timetestedtools Thank you very much for the info Don! And thanks a million for watching. Cheers man.
The only thing I cut in my boat is bait and fish. Maybe it's a rigging knife.
Cheers man, thanks for watching!
The Art's of the Sailor by Hervey Garrett Smith will answer your questions about boat knives.

Is there anyway we can order knifes from you?
Hey Cody, I don't really produce a large volume of knives and am not taking custom orders at this time. When I do have one available for sale to the public I put it up on Instagram. Thanks!

Thank you!
Is 1095 treated the same way?
No sir, not 100%. From what I understand you can get pretty good results with a forge HT on 1095 (like shown here), however, to see it's full potential 1095 needs to soak for a bit at your target temperature.
@@RedBeardOps Thanks ,Jay
a boat knife is a deep V-shaped hull boat. Get it? Cause it has a sharp point? No? Ok.
LOL
@@RedBeardOps my jokes are bad im sorry dad i let u down
I like watching knife making videos. Honestly I totally skipped the corby math stuff. Other than the vid was good. I prefer vids with talking so I cn follow along more easily.
