- Remaking the historic Old Timer Sharpfinger! This knife design has stood the test of time! I made this knife for my father who appreciates a classic design like this one. I took the opportunity to play around with a mustard patina on this knife.

Anyone own a Schrade Old Timer Sharpfinger?!
I do, bought it in the 70's. Cleaned a lot of squirrels with it, never used it on a deer. Still have it somewhere. Quick little knife.
@@joeklerekoper4733 Hey Joe, very cool! It seems very agile in the hand! Very pointy.. almost stabbed my self by accident with it a few times!
1st knife that my dad bought me back in the ‘70 when I was 13. I past it down to my son when he turned 13. He said that he will give to his son when he turns 13. Great little skinning knife.
My First ever attempt at building a knife was a sharpfinger.
Love the older USA made ones! Awesome job! I would love to find someone to custom make me one.
Man that's a cool throwback. I haven't seen one of those in a very long time. Good job with it
Thank you sir! It's a pointy guy for sure
I‘m a simple man. I see someone build a sharpfinger, I click.
Subscribed.
Lol, I love it! Thanks man. Glad you liked it!
That patina reminds me of a "Mossy Oak" pattern!!! You deserve many more subs and views. The care you take comes across.
Hey Matt, thanks for the kind words! I’m really happy with how the pattern came out. I’ll for sure be doing more of these mustard patinas in the future. Pretty darn easy to do too!
I'm going watch this over many times
Thank you very much sir!
Wow that turned out really good can't wait to try it on one of my knives
Thanks jones!
I think it would be cool if you experimented by doing some bigger knives
Thanks for the feedback. They're coming for sure!
What thickness of the steel did you have?
1/8''
Did you make Your belt sander?
Hey man, I did not make this belt sander. I was able to pick this one up second hand. It was manufactured by kadrmaskreations.com/product-category/knife-grinders/
@@RedBeardOps Hey Mr. Beard, I was admiring your sander along with your other tools. You're pretty talented so it wouldn't surprise me if you had made it yourself.
I just bit the bullet and ordered an oven. I enjoy using my gas forge but I’m limited to outdoor heat treating. My blades never flame in vegetable oil but I see yours do. Im definitely up to temperature ( non magnetic). 🤔
chip Lape man! I’m jealous! What oven did you go with? Mine don’t always flame up either. I don’t think that’s the best indication of success. I normally try and get 20-50 degrees over non-magnetic, but with my set up it’s not an exact science.
Even heat kf 18. Can’t wait to get it. Says 5 weeks 😬. So I’ll still be using the forge for now. I really admire your attention to detail 👍👍👍. Next I think I’ll get a big wheel. What size do you use. Then I really need the DD tool rest!!!
Love the mustard treatment. Is that it just leave it on 2 1/1 hours and wash off. Again what did you spray on your knife at the end.
@@e.t.preppin7084 Yes sir, that's exactly what I did. Make sure your mustard has vinegar in it. I used Ballistol multi purpose lubricant to spray the knife down with.
@@e.t.preppin7084 Man that's awesome! I'm supper jealous now! Sounds like a sweet oven. I haven't done any hollow grinding yet. The wheel I have is only 4''. I'm pretty sure 10-12'' is the standard for hollow grinding general knives.
What grit of sandpaper did you stop at before the mustard patina.
I don't remember in this case, but I bet it was 320
@@RedBeardOps Thanks!
Oo man i was totaly jammin out to the tunes you got goin on!😂 ooo an the knifes pritty good 2 by far my all-time favortie skinnin knife😂😂🎉❤
Cheers Zackary!
Second last song sounds like a Martin D-18. The last song sounds like a Taylor 410ce......just sayin' :)
Lol, cool deal man. Really happy you enjoyed it! Have a good one!
I have got to get me a band saw.
Dude that band saw is a game changer
The Sharpfinger is a favey fave knife
I guess you were just spraying oil on your finished knife
Yes sir, I'm slightly obsessive about it on high carbon blades!
I saw that use of square tubing as an oven a few nights ago on forges in dire
TheGhostBeast hey Ghost! That piece of square tubing in the forge is generally referred to as a “muffle pipe”. I’ve found it really helps you evenly heat the blade during the heat treat and minimizes hot spots!
JKeetonKnives I may try this. I do have a question though. Could you do it with a charcoal forge
TheGhostBeast , I don’t personally have any experience with a charcoal forge. But I have heard of people utilizing muffle pipes for them.
JKeetonKnives
I use a charcoal/mesquite wood forge. Have never tried a muffle pipe. That’ll be next. You did an excellent job on the knife build. I just recently subscribed to your channel. I’d love to see you pounding something out. Keep on keeping on brother.
Did ya buff your handles with a scotch brite
No sir, I haven't done any handle buffing. One of these days I may get me a buffer, but currently the thing scares me. I use the scotchbrite belt to clean up the spine of the knife.
I took metal shop in high school. No weapons allowed. I've forgotten most of what I learned. Fun watching your videos.
Heck yeah, sir! Really happy you're enjoying them!
We built muzzle loading black powder kits in woodshop class. That was in the late 70s. Love your knife making videos, they are excellent teaching material for noob knife makers like me.
@@todd718 Thanks Todd!
Man, that is great work.
Much appreciated!
I can’t get to any links when your name covers the little button I hit to get to the links. When I hit it it just minimize the video. Had that problem with a few other creatures (almost typed in creatures) haha. Yeah knife makers are knife creatures. 😂
Hey Chip, I'm not exactly sure what issue you're having, but it could be due to the device you're watching on?
Yes, I had a old timer and my Grandpa said they had better ones back in the days past.
Getting to like your videos
Thanks
Thank you very much for watching! The old timer design is well tested! I enjoyed making it.
Nice old timer. Your builds always impress me. What did ya spray on at the end. Thanks
chip Lape hey chip, that was just a little ballistol (like wd40)
Great video. Where do you get those rivets for the handle?
fullcustomization thanks! You can get them from pop’s knife supply and/or TruGrit.
This looks great!
Thanks Nick!
I finished the mustard petina. I love it. It’ll definitely hide any slight imperfections. Wish I knew how to send you a picture of it. I just lack putting an edge on the knife and I’m done except sheath
Sweet! Glad to hear that. I think that finish is pretty cool. I've found that "less is more" with the mustard application.
I have a finished kephart with out the final edge. Could I do the mustard now. It’s 1084 steel?
Fore sure. Sounds like it went well!
That style, and mustard patina realy turned out well!
Thank you sir!
Nice job with the mustard etch.
Thanks Don!
I have an old timer in its packaging at home!! That was nostalgic!
Mustard looked great 👌🏽
What finish has lasted the longest on your knives? And was that 1075?
Man these old timers are pointy aren't they?!? The steel used in this build was 1084. Most of my knives have a stone washed finish and I feel like this is a good working finish on a knife. Nothing wrong with a good old hand sanded satin finish either, but you will see some scratches more easily I think.... not to mention they take longer to get right when building.
Red Beard Ops they are really pointy, I skinned a Roo once with it and I kept putting nicks in the skin so it ended up being just meat 😁
How long did you leave the mustard on for? Looks awesome. Well done
Nvm😂 just kept watching the video 😂😂😂
Cheers man! It's worth playing around with the time to get the look you're shooting for.
Nice build, and Mustard patina. I must have missed the type of steel.
It was 1084, cheers
Thanks for the video. I've always liked this knife style. The mustard patina was really cool also. When you were applying I was thinking...this is gonna look like a hit mess. I was wrong, came out beautiful. Good work
Thanks Phillip! I like how it turned out too! This one ended up being a gift and is still happily in use!
