Disclaimer: This is my first Integral "hidden tang" knife. I have forged a few Integral knives where the entire knife is Integral including the handle.
Thanks, I've been watching everyone of them at least twice and will probably be watching them again..!!!
Love your thinking on the flow of lines..!!
Your approach on the Ergonomics etc.!!
Beautiful job Erick
Thank you Chip!
Definitely go with the swedge!..great blade.
Thanks Jason!
This is a fantastic techniques video! Always learning is always good. And I learned. Thanks Erick! False edge for sure.
Thanks Jim!
Well done. I like the way you explained as you went with your process. So far it appears this one willreally look good. Kudo's
Looks great. You should bevel the top also.
Thank you Chris!
That was your first integral?! Erick, this was a master class in forging integrals. Really well done! 👏🏻
Thanks Denis! It's been a blast working through these different forging projects.
Good job. Inspired to try it...... I'd maybe do the main bevels first before deciding on false edge or not.....
Love your practical design approach..simplicity and balance aswell as combination of materials..!!
I enjoyed and appreciate the information on how you forge your integral bolster in and how you forge out your blade I think it helps people understand more of what your process is and how you accomplished it and as for the clip point of the blade I think just round it off on the corners and it's going I like the profile
I like your styls! Great job! 👍 I try to make a knife like this 😁
Super informative video ! One of your best ones so far for those of us looking for more how to detail . You never answered my email Erick, not interested ?
Thanks Steven! I'll take a look at the email and let you know.
@@theriversexperience9383 I get it if your to busy or it doesn’t fit in just let me know so I can put it to bay either way no pressure sir ! I am here for the lessons 👍
Off to a great start - look froward to the next episode !!!!
Great job ,bravo 👍 as well Say in m'y country
Yes, grind in a wedge, it always looks nicer! 👍😁
THAT FIRST HAMMER! is way nice
That hammer is beautiful!
Great video hope to se more vids like that
Shop talk Tuesday!
get yourself a 3/4 fuller for your hardy and you can use it in conjunction with the straight peen to isolate your transitions. if i remember correctly frank makes his peens 3/4" 🙂
Thats a great idea, I'm gonna make one of those tomorrow.
A really knice job brother ! The first pair of tongs would wear me out. Meaning how far apart handle end is. My hands aren’t very big. I’d have to heat it up and bend the handles in a bit. That new hammer is awesome. I need one like that bad.
Yeah, I just got the tongs and that was the first time using them. They are adjusted now lol, it was kinda uncomfortable holding them.
Delicious episode
Heck yeah!
I vote no false edge
i tried an integral from a little spring but it had about a hundred cracks in it when i was grinding. it was a super awesome design and i had the perfect little peice of wood for it. kinda a bummer but whatever.
I've had that happen before. It's never fun having to set a project aside after putting hours of work into it.
Cool looking little knife. I love forging integrals. I would definitely grind the clip if it were me.
Thank you Daniel! I will most likely be doing the bevels on the clip.
Mntap
I do like it 👍
Excellent video! I’m jealous of your ability 🤣
Thanks! 😃
Pretty cool little integral bolster EDC there! I say grind in a swedge.
Thanks mark! I will be.
Nice work 👍🏼
Great looking knife.I like the false edge on the clip point.
Thank you Jim! I agree.
Turned out great, very nice cross peen hammer too, I've wanted one for a while but I'm going to have to make one as well... which will most likely not be my best looking effort!
That cross peen was made by "Old Hickory Forge" here on UA-cam, I was able to get it at Blade Show Atlanta.
@@theriversexperience9383 Oh I bought a 4ft length of 2" 1055, I've just been procrastinating that it magically turns into hammers overnight without me doing anything to it :)
Well that and I've been busier than normal catching up on stuff, so hopefully the mid year slump gives me a bit of time to make some more tooling
Always interesting to see that much knife come from what seems like such a small piece of bar. I dig the clip point profile. I think I'd go with the bevel on top as well..
It amazes me each time lol.
you talk too much!
I'm pretty sure that the Title explains that... "Shop TALK Tuesday"... If I didn't talk, it would be "Shop Tuesday". Thanks for the feedback though.
I vote to swedge it!
That seems to be the way I'm gonna go.
I dig it, the baby Bowie ❤
Thank you!
Super awesome video. Thanks for going into detail on hammer selection and explaining why and how you’re hitting things! Super helpful for people like myself who don’t have a ton of time on the anvil! I think it could look cool to grind in a Swedged at the top of the clip point! I’m currently studying your playlist series on your first hit and Thang knife as I am trying to do my first as well. Can’t wait to see how you put a handle up against the integral bolster! Thanks again brochacho!
I hope that the videos are helpful! Good luck on your build.
Looking forward to seeing the finished knife. I love the look of a brut de forge bolster. I'd bevel a false edge on the clip point. 🤙
I think the bevel is the way I'm going to go.
Great job on everything. I haven't tried this yet. It's a blast trying new stuff. Forged up a couple Lin Rhea Xray blades. Lots of fun. Look forward to part two. Thank you.
I'll be making one of those soon.
Hell ya! 🤘🤘
What's up Matt!?
@@theriversexperience9383 doin the Daddy Day Care 🤣 imma weekend warrior until Logan gets a bit bigger 😂
Always learn so much from your videos. Thanks for the inspiration and the great lessons.
I'm glad that they are helpful!
Great work! I always look forward to shop talk Tuesdays. Can’t wait to see how this one turns out 🙌
Thank you!
