Trollskyy I have been trying to buy one of your knives for years through your websites but I never hear back. Is there a better way to order one from you?
When I see a Walter Sorrells knife build... I click it... Immediately! Excellent video sir! That canvas micarta is a favorite of mine! That surface grinder is excellent! I need one of those man. Do you ever flare the thong tubes while the glue is setting opposed to after the glue is set?
Just curious why you don’t clean up your bevels before gluing your scales on. Don’t you have to dip your scales in the water to cool as you’re finishing your bevels ? I only use wood scales and would hate to be over soaking them. Nice video still. I’ve always loved your channel. I’ve learned so much from you. Thanks 👍👍👍
Some form of stress riser would normally be necessary for a weak spot to be created between hard and soft areas of the steel (blade to tang junction in this case). This is not directly caused by the difference in physical crystalline structure of the two areas, but if a stress riser already exists in this area it can be worsened by this difference in structure. Stress risers in this area are generally a result of a “square” joint between the blade and the tang. To help reduce the likelihood of a crack forming at this location when the blade is quenched, it is best to radius this joint as much as possible. In other words, if the design allows, create an arc of as large a radius as possible when forming the junction between the blade and the tang. The ability to do this, often depends upon the material to be used for the handle and or finger guard if so equipped.
Next, make a one-off Hunter Skinner of your own design! I'd LOVE to see it!

simple and sharp - that is what is required from a good knife.

@@jpilgrim9722 calm down, you're our here trying to make this guy work off the clock or something.
It takes a Mighty Fine Man to send folk to another maker . Much Respect to you Sir !
As usual, excellent work Walter! Always good to go over the steps again, keeps me from getting cocky and/or complacent

Love it pls do more vids u inspire me to carry on making my knifes
That's a fine looking tool to take to the field. No fussy stuff. Should last a couple of owners. 👍
I love your videos, most of what I have learned about knife making outside of the shot I have learned from you.
Great looking knife! Thanks for sharing!
Great Job!
Fisk is a very good designer IMHO
Good tip on drilling the holes before profiling. That's a wierd looking knife tho, with handle above the blade.
Hang the belt off the side of the platen for inside curves? Thank you, Walter! I've been having trouble with those.
Another great video, and classily (if that's a word) done. Thanks!
Nice knife thanks for the video🤠👍
Keep the good work i haven't seen your videos from a while good work
the 'renwick' is a lifted design as well. completely 110% lifted. hk plan d me --
Very nice
I enjoyed the tips, thanks.
Minus the time it takes you to normalize, heat treat and temper... how long did it take you to make this knife? It’s beautiful
Love it!

Water wouldn't be a problem for composites like micarta or g10
Would really like to order some belts but shipping to germany is too expensive...
Whom do you buy your blade tongs from 🤔
sharp corners on the guard are painful.....
That “hardness test” tho 😂
What about it?
It was completely pointless
@@MikeJones-vb1me How so?
Combat. Abrasive. It.
Congratulations on the 10yrs of videos!
Do you still make tamahagane like you did with Jesus ?
Tha FISK!!!
If you only harden the blade, and not the tang, does that create an area where the blade is most likely to snap? Where hard meets soft?
