Very nice, I need to remember to check out your stuff more often. I was working with some fat wood recently, and I know exactly how it smells. Such a strange thing to work with as well. I like to cut it to shape with a sharp blade, and then a bit of rough sanding, and then it's mostly about burnishing, because the wood is so soft, and the resin clogs everything up. It never goes as smoothly as I wish, but it is so beautiful when it's done. I was lucky to find a pile of wood on a roadside, with a sign that said take as much as you want. It had a bunch of large limbs from a pine tree, including the swell at the base of the limb, and they were very full of turpentine, so I will have a supply of fat wood for a while. I am glad to see that you are doing well, hope your dogs are good too. I am still making things, in the woods, of Wisconsin, and Minnesota, in the USA. Best wishes. 👍
What a little beauty. I like your new bench but i miss the old filing stump a bit.....:) So glad to see that you are learning to forge. Don't forget to keep a log or notes of your heat treating and tempering process such as time and temp, Annealing and or normalizing cycles. type of quench fluid, and temp of quench fluid. for each type of steel. then test your blades. then save the process that work best in a book. Mabe even in the notes to your son. I always love watching your videos Vahid. Keep them coming. Tom B.
Thank you Tom. I do miss my birch stumps too but I had to make a decision to leave them. I think I have to get new ones. Thank you for the forging advice, that sounds like a great idea. I'm glad to know you enjoy the videos 🙏
Hello brother. Good work. Don't feel bad. I have been forging for years and I still burn one up or break one once in a while. I like the looks of that finished blade. Keep heating and beating.
Fat wood is awesome to work with. Around my neck of the woods 😜 we call it "rich pine" it's very popular for starting fires. The color to me is much richer than regular because basically it's been naturally stabilized by the retention of the sap which has fermented in the wood. We find it often in once harvested areas of forest that have been burned off basically sealing the sap in.
Hej Vahid So now your'e living in Sweden again if I'm not mistaken? I came to Jokkmokk just over a year ago just to see how it was to live up here in the north (Jokkmokk) well I liked it so much that I sold my house in the far south (Simrishamn) and now I'm looking for a place to buy somewhere around Jokkmokk. I came across your channel when I was looking for some info about knife making and have followed you ever since. I have made 3 knives so far but I'm not really satisfied with the result so I will attend a course soon to try to advance my skills a bit. Isn't fat wood difficult to work with because of the resin in the wood?
Hi there, yes I remember we had a similar conversation about you living in Jmk. How is the house search going? The resin in the fatwood is tricky since it clogs up everything, files, sandpaper and all.
@@VahidCullsberg No luck so far with my house search mainly because I'm picky 😊 but I'm sure in due time I will find something I want. I suspected already that it would clog up everything.
Isn't it great when the san paper refuses to cooperate? Those hand sanders experience much more of the vibration when they are held still on a hard surface than when in the hand. If the grabbing surface on the paper is not the best they have a tendency to crawl off. That knife blade is alive! Thanks .
Hej Vahid, Är det vanligt trälim du använder när du sammanfogar de olika bitarna? Jag använder alltid epoxy men det är ju så fruktansvärt dyrt så om det funkar med trälim blir jag glad.
Hej Conny, yes det stämmer. Bara vanligt trälim från dana lim. Knivtången går dessutom rätt igenom skaftet och hamrad. Hade inte kniven gått rätt genom hade jag nog valt epoxy.

That’s an awesome knife. I enjoy making things out of Fatwood myself. Great job Bro!!!
Thanks for Your job!
Great job Vahid. The new blade making skill will be really interesting to follow. The knife is almost too beautiful to want to use!
Thanks Craig, yeah I'm really looking forward to start filming the forging. I hope whoever gets this new knife won't be afraid to put it to good use 😄

That's an awesome road side find! I must try burnishing it someday. Sounds like a good project.

Beautiful wood.
Thanks for Hour job! Pozdrawiam z Polski.
Looks fantastic!
Thanks Dave.

Thanks Richard for the encouragement. Yeah I'm kinda glad I got to see my first one fail. Lots learned!

It certainly is 👍
Very nice knife, bro 😊
Thank you Dimi 🙏
Ever tried making Japanese knives like a Deba or Nakiri ? You do such wonderful work .
Hi, do you mean forging the blades. I'm just learning. I'm eager to learn as much as I possibly can though. Thanks for the compliment 😊

There was lots of vibrations for sure.
