Freaking amazing, you make it look so easy. thank you for showing the rest of us that don't have all the fancy tools how to actually make a knife.. lVery much appreciated beautiful knife.
So, what alloy of steel did you use; what abrasive in your sandpaper; which composite or wood materials. What heat treatment, quench, and temper schedules. You could have done so much better with this video.
This is what I was looking for! I have a diving knife whose plastic handle has disintegrated. Nothing fancy, but a shame to throw it away, but no special tools. This has inspired me to repurpose it. I have a chunk of rosewood that has been in the shed for a couple of years. Don't worry, it won't be going in the sea again... 😁
The greatest knife making video. With almost ALL makeshift tools you fabricated something absolutely beautiful and obviously made with the highest possible standards given the tools at your disposal. Hats off to you sir.
I give to you my compliment becuse i see a lot of knifemakers and theirs productions but they have all instruments for working and in that dconditions is very easy to have the best knives. you are an artist as i whant to be . grazie tante
when i was about 14, i used my dads grinder and drill to make pipes for myself and my friends. i am a big boy and will make my own knife haha great show
Simplicity is inteligence .Here is an example how to make a knife. !.We though don't know the kind of steel, and I think the tempering could be better. Grate result.
Mate, this is just amazing to watch. I am planning to do it myself soon, I really need to. To cure my wounded sould ;) Thank you, I really appreciate you sharing this.
HEY THANKS MAN IM GONNA TRY THIS IM GONNA USE AN OLD LAWN MOWER BLADE TO MAKE IT I KNOW ITS ALOT OF HAND WORK ITLL BE HARD FOR ME CAUSE I HAD A STROKE N LOSS ALOT OF USE OF MY LEFT HAND BUT I HAVE THE TOOLS BUT WHAT GRIT WAS THE SANDPAPER THAT YOU USED IN THE BEGINNING THERE N drill bit size what grit metal files to use what round grit files did you all use for this project I'd really appreciate it ok bud ok thank you hope to hear back from you
It's not the price of the tool, it's the skill of the artist. Lovely work. What are the materials used in the three thin layers you stacked and glued with epoxy between the guard (back quillon) and the wooden handle? What are their purpose? My guess is they are leather, brass, and steel and they are just decorative? Is the guard made of brass?
Love the blade length from handle to tip great shape only thing I would change is towards tip on back of knife I would put or make a hump so when skining with blade edge facing up the hump will slightly push tip or point away from meat and not stick into meat so easy old butchers knives if you look were like this or slightly curved
Your incredible craftsmanship resulted in a beautiful, very servicable knife. Thanks for sharing the fabrication process with us. ... Is it O1 tool steel? ... New subscriber
......with some special tools. Like Dremells, electric drills, blow torches, grinders et cetera. Still a great job and very interesting. I'd love to see a knife made totally by human-power though.
@@robinleebraun7739 This. Austenite isn't magnetic and it needs to be austenite crystals before quench. Special alloys can make it stay austenite at room temperature which is why some stainless steels aren't magnetic. Best to use 1084 for this process since it's the easiest and fastest to transform since there's no chrome or stuff to slow down how fast carbon gets into solution. Ideally, you normalize it before the quench heat, so you take it nonmagnetic and hotter, to almost forge temp, then air cool, then you do the nonmagnetic and quench. This step helps with steels like 80CrV2 or 5160 with some chrome in it which slows how fast it dissolves, though it also makes it not need to be quenched as fast for the same reason since it gets more easily trapped. Some steels like 1095 and w1 are water quenching, and 1084 and 5160 is fairly fast oil. Canola is a very slow oil so you'll have to have a really thin knife for it to cook fast enough in that.
hello, i am making my first knife and got my shape cut out already. i am curious what type of oil should i use and how much of it for quenching? the blade is approximately 18cm in length
Old comment, but first off, the steel type changes the quench speed. 1095 is water quench, 1084, 80crv2, 5160 are fast oil quench, O1 is slow oil quench. Most beginners use canola oil but unless you're using less than 1/8th inch it certainly won't fully harden - unless you overheated it before the quench since grain growth makes it easier to harden but kills the steel's toughness. Heat the steel up to near forging temperature, then air cool, then do it again but only until it's all just non magnetic (check often) and then immediately quench. If you've got 1095 or W1, you might have to water quench if it's thicker, be careful of how thin your bevels are cut for that. Parks 50 is what you should use, but for 1084 you can get away with canola for thin stuff, and O1 will harden easily in canola even up to ½". Heat the oil up a little past body temp before using it so it's less viscous. After that, temper in an oven at 350-400f, twice for an hour each with a cool in between, you can just dip it in water and put it back in if impatient. Be aware that ovens aren't super even temp and can fluctuate and temperature is more critical than time here. Doing this instead of the typical straw color temper will give you a much tougher blade even if it's harder, since you let it destress slowly at lower temp, and you temper twice since the first temper can create new untempered martensite.. it's complicated but it works.
Very nice end result bud, like yourself I'm a basic hobbyist knife maker using mainly good quality old file's for my blanks and basic tools, new Sub here 👍🏻
Making a knife without special tools, but with terrific skills and patience. Nice video.

👍

Hats off to you sir.
That drill held in a vise and used for sanding the handle was the pinnacle of your great video. You sir are a true master of your craft.

Beautiful knife! I really like the simple lines. "Less is more" Thank you for sharing this video!
Amazing craftsmanship with basic tools 👍
Всю жизнь доверяю то что собрано и сделано в ручную 👍👍

One of the most fulfilling knive vids. Well done.
Wow. Like a work of art. You really did make it look deceptively easy. Beautifully done.
Wow, that was amazing. Thanks for making the video. Quite inspiring.
Fantastic work with basic tools. Great result.
Where there is a will, there is a way. The sound of the file eating the raw steel of the blank held in the vise is fascinating...

я перевод твой искал на угад . привет из россии.
very beautiful knife. love the shapes and size.
Very nice classic knife.
Hi. It looks great. What steel did you use in that case? Thanks.
All the knife you will ever need for hunting/camping needs. Good as any you can buy and better than most.

Wonderful.
Thank you for sharing your knife skills brother.
We are in your debt.
very very nice my friend 👏👏🌷
Classic Design, very beautiful. Nice work!
Great job and a lot of hard work paid off. I didn’t see any hardening process so wondering if blade will hold an edge for long. Beautiful job.
Man that's cool. Makes me wanna try my hand at it. Sweet knife
Why wait
Absolutely beautiful. We’ll done👍
Amazing job with minimal tools.
Thanks)
Amazing. Thanks for sharing.
What type of steel did you use for this very nice well done God bless from Canada eh
excellent knife🗡🛡
gefällt mir sehr gut. Du hast echt Talent. Bewundernswert
It’s a beautiful blade bro. Nice design and execution!
It's not the tools, it's the steelworking, handtools usage, basic chemistry, & physics knowledge that makes the difference.
Very nice work!
Beautiful job. Very well done
Très beau travail 👍 tout a la lime chapeau , merci de ta vidéo 👍👍
What a beautiful knife. Your filing guide is almost the exact same as mine.
Nice job 😮
Excellent, beautiful knife!

BEAUTIFUL !!
A very informative video. You didn't heat treat it, was it wet steel? Did you temper with a blowtorch?
I hope you know im making this with a hacksaw, a file and sandpaper, and noone can stop me
How'd that go?
@@dogs-game-too i put a hole in my finger, so, bad.
@@maestrohulk746😂😂😂😂 no am😑amigooo
Are you actually serious about putting a hole in your finger ?

Edward you are best.
Simple lines and looks great. Thank you for making this content.
☺️
So to take the hardness out a bit you just looked for the straw color?
👍🏻 for your hardwork
Good Morning Edward… Do you make & Sale knife like this one in 4 or 5 inch blade length, and how much?
Love the blade length from handle to tip great shape only thing I would change is towards tip on back of knife I would put or make a hump so when skining with blade edge facing up the hump will slightly push tip or point away from meat and not stick into meat so easy old butchers knives if you look were like this or slightly curved

Very nice.
Best DIY video on youtube, congrats... What is this green stuf for polishing ?
لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله ❤❤
Amazing work. What type of wood was used for the handle?
Wood
Its very pretty.
Do you make holsters too?
Very nice. How many hours to make. ?
how do you clean you files after filing softer materials like brass or copper? we all know it get more stuck to the files compared to steel
What is the pouder which you use .. when you warming up by gas pistol.. Borax ? Sand pouder ?
Very nice. I'd like to know the total time spent making that knife.
Just amazing
What's the black material between the brass
Well done, what do you call the grind you put on the spine of the knife, certainly looks pretty cool!
That file jig is sick.
How do you know when the blade is hot enough for the heat treatment? Very nice video!
you look at the colour. When it's cherry red you know it's between 800-900°C, which is the temperature for haderning steel.
Use a magnet. When it no longer pulls on the hot steel, it’s hot enough. Saw that on Forged In Fire.
