Hey BBP, not sure if you know about this or not but you can add captions to a video so you can just write the detailed list of operations there and they will pop up in the video. (Then it's up to the viewer if they want to see that info or not). I'm not sure how you do it currently but maybe it will save you some time? Just a thought! :)
Good 💯🌹👌☺️👍
Quick question! When you use a respirator, do some fumes go through due to your beard or can you mantain a good seal?

I mentioned wanting more leather-working videos and 2 weeks later here it is. I don't know if he was seriously listening to his viewers or not, but I hope so! This dude is amazing.
Nice work. However, as a working saddle maker for nearly 50 years, I would recommend anyone wanting to make a round knife, is just copy what has been made for donkey's years, and leave it at that. For the serious user in heavier leather, the knife should have a gentle convex grind from well into the blade out to the edge, on both sides. These heavy short bevels I see being ground on round knives would possibly be fine in light leather, but I couldn't imagine them in the heavy stuff, say 4mm and thicker. I am constantly into harness leather , sole leather etc, and one needs all the help one can get. The outer two points are very important for accurate cutting , and are best a little wider than the knife is round , so to speak. Handle needs to taper from butt to ferrule, because when laying the knife down to skive, flanges will be a hindrance. Please yourselves, no skin off my nose. I have more than fifty round knives , some going back a century, and all different makers. They all have the features I have mentioned, because that is what works, in all types of leather!
Very beautyful work My friend 👌👌👍
Красавчик. Работа на высшем уровне!!!!!!!
Действительно мастер!!! 👍👍👍.У меня тоже есть 2 диска ,и вот всё думаю во что их превратить ?Спасибо большое за идею! !!!!!
Ingenious use of safety tools. Very impressive
Nice work, like the end result 👍
Excellent workmanship.
Just beautiful. I Know what I'll be doing with my old high carbon steel saw blades now. Nicely done sir 👍
I'm so happy to see you post a new video. If I remember, I think you are in Italy. I know your country is enduring a great challenge. I know that the challenge will be met by people like you. ..........God speed and, God bless!
Крутой дядька! Руки «золотые»!
There's something about the startup noise your belt grinder makes in fast forward that is oddly satisfying.
Красавчик, лучшие ножи, безподобная заточка. Сил, удачи, новых идей и побольше наличных!)))
Спасибо
Ну и зачем такое чудо непонятной мысли?

This is fantastic work. Love the wood. Hope you and your loved ones stay safe in the current crisis.
Bravo !!! Doctore !!!!!!!!!
love this restoration
I love when Black Beard just makes his own stuff. Most of his workshop has been restored, or crafted himself.
I know. This exact thought came to mind with the mallet. That was ages ago and here he is using it for a brand new project.
Truly Amazing craftsmanship!
Your videos have inspired me to go to the next level of my hobbie ,but the thing that really impress me is the way you fit your handles to the tools you make . the round hole then the dow rod is a super smart idea. I have done this twice now and I Am very happy with the results .so thank you and looking forward to moore gratr ideas. cheers.
Looks like you made yourself a nice Eskimo knife an uluu with a real funky handle...good job!

Toute mon admiration du bon travail respect
Absolutley beautifull!
Dude , It is awesome 👌
Great video as always, thank you. I'm glad you are still creating, with the current situation, hope all is going ok.
La cosa positiva della quarantena è che da tempo di fare i lavoretti in garage
looks awesome bb, nice job
You never fail to impress
Hopefully you'll have time to answer questions. First of all, did you quench in water? Secondly, did you not have to temper? I'm asking because I have circular saw blades and have already started one knife....but some instruction would be awesome
GREAT!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING.
Great work; thanks. J.
Parabéns pelo trabalho. Muito bonito. Criativo!
That was beautiful man.
I love this channel
Good job, go on.
Thank you.
Awesome job
How do you decide whether to use hand tools or power tools? You used a hand saw, to cut the blank, for the handle but then you used a band saw to cut off the end, after the lathe work.
amazing works
Fantastic job....
Great job. I liked so much.
Cool
You're doing great. You're a master.

Muito bom, parabéns!
@The-Man-Who-Chortles jajaja, es cierto, el shampoo tiene parabenos... 😁😁
Когда руки с того места выросли)
Все идеально!)
Cool tool dude.
You need a mortiser for your drill press,to make rectangular holes for the tangs. It's like a hollow chisel with a drill bit in the middle. Look it up,they are cool as hell and been around for about a hundred years or so.
But... why? This tang does not have regular shape, and his solution is just great. I'm definitely stealing this dovel technique.
Muito bom o seu trabalho.
