    About Simple Little Life:
    This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
    Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
    Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

    The wax process will work a lot better if you don’t bitch the sides of the tang until just before final glue up. Leave the tang smooth during the 1st glue up with paste wax and it will slide right out for ya. Love your videos and I’ve learned so much from them. Keep up the great work Brother!!

    Use Vaseline for the tang and only a very light thin coating not wax leave in for 5 mins only or less once it's aligned clean off the Vaseline and reinsert 10 mins or so later and you will be fine. lastly holes through the tang provide a better means of mechanical retention compared to rounded outside curves.

  • @vandelftcrafts2958
    @vandelftcrafts2958 4 роки тому

    Wax only works realy well if the tang is more or less smooth, the grooves/notches in your tang make nice pockets for the epoxy to harden in and make it hard or impossible to take out without any damage to the handle. One way would be to make the grooves/notches after you glued the Handle. Or... you could just do it like you have always done it, seemed to work just fine for you. Loved this vid!

  • @vikmoj2426
    @vikmoj2426 4 роки тому

    About the radius at 3:25: It actually IS a thing! There are two different problems you have to face, static stress and fatigue stress. It's relatively easy to prevent the first one (you can't bend the steel bar with your bare hand), but if there is a sharp angle, that's the place where material is stressed the most and where will eventually a fatigue fracture iniciate. Any kind of radius can relax this at least a little bit. This should be definitely your concern if your knife is made of thin steel. If you overdo the radius (kinda enter the bar), trust me or not, it's even safer in terms of fatigue (of course this will worsen the static toughness). Fatigue fracture can be seen with cheap kitchen knife, where they spare money on every part that isn't visible.
    Radius designed for preventing a fatigue is a thing in shaft design and some are ostensibly weakening the part, but in the end, fatigue is what really matters.
    Summarized, it's even safer to make a hole in the corner with a drill than keeping a sharp angle.
    Anyway sorry for my english

    3:17 not in theory, in practice. I've fixed knives for a friend who can't weld. Nobody in the manufacturing department (of the quite expensive knives, i might add) bothered to do something as simple and as effective as you're doing, so the result was broken handles on otherwise perfectly good knives. But hey, i learnt to weld stick stainless under water and he got good knives back with the proper radius in the handle, so i suppose win, win.

      Oh yes!!! That is exactly it!! Thank you so much! Just last week I was working with it and wondering still what it was. As soon as I saw the word I remembered that was what was written on the side of the block. Thank you so much for taking the time. I really do appreciate it. I'm going to screenshot this and write it down. Thanks again!🙏👍

    Hi Jeremy love the video as usual bud great work. What camera and lense do you use mate? And coincidentally this paring build falls on the same week as our first tfs knife maker challenge on Facebook. Theres been some conversation on the group about your build as we are all building a similar parer in there. We'd love it if you wanna come over and say hi. Apologies for hijacking your comments thread it's not my intention. We love your channel

    Nice knife. I think the reason the tang wouldn’t come out of the handle easily is because you put the grooves for the epoxy in the tang. Maybe try making those grooves after bedding the tang.
    Great video thanks

      Thanks! I moved the blade up and down for that reason and thought it would help. These are just two of several ways to get it done and I think it’s always best to stick with your personal preference. That’s the last time I try waxing it 😆👍

      Yep, wax works a treat with straight or tapered tangs. but the divots leave a place for the resin to form protrusions that you have to drag past to withdraw it.

    That's a slick little knife Jeremy! You used the needle scaler to make the dimples on the flats right? I missed it if you said you did in the video somewhere. Great work as always!

      Thank you. That’s actually the mill scale finish that comes on the steel. Handy 👍

    Hey, I am a beginner knife maker and I have been watching your videos for a while... I am looking to get a legit belt grinder that will be more effective for shaping and beveling my knives. However, I do not have the space, and can't afford a large 2 x 72 belt grinder. So, I was wondering if you or anybody else had any suggestions as to what would be an effective yet affordable grinder that I could purchase. Thanks!
    Ps.: I have been inspired a lot by your content, and I am really grateful for that. Love your videos, keep up the great work!

    That tip for air escape on the dowel is epic. That's a Liliputian Chef Knife not a paring. I'm making one this weekend in 440c
    and maple burl. That looks like a great take on different way to a mini - petty? 👍

    22:00 - I'm thinking the reason it was so hard to get out is because the grooves were catching on the epoxy. I wonder if you could put those in after the initial epoxy?

  • @anguswhitnall1084

    With the wax technique, wouldn't some wax remain inside the handle and prevent it sticking properly later?

    I like baby powder because it keeps me from chafing! ;) Beautiful knife and crazy sharp! Btw, I love very thinly sliced tomatoes!
    Thanks again. I always learn something from you. What to do as well what not to do, like use paste wax when epoxying up a handle. ;) I've been playing with making knives with scrap metal around the house but I'd like to get my hands on some clean 1095 or even play with s35vn or s30v. Do you have a recommendation for what "real" steel to make a "real" blade from and where to get it?

    • @Simplelittlelife
      @Simplelittlelife  4 роки тому +1

      Thank you! I would get it anywhere you can buy that stuff online but all depends on where you live. I always like O-1 tool steel.

    Nice knife! Do you ever make knives with local viewers or people interested in the craft, not necessarily lessons more like collabs with less set up hobbyists? 😁

    21:40 - if you have grooves in the blade tang it's going to be difficult to pull it out regardless of whether or not you use paste wax
