Copper knife with maple burl handle
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- In this video I try to make a knife from a copper bar this knife is quite hard but no where near as hard as normal steel so it is made for display purposes and cause I've not seen anyone else try it so why not. I wasn't happy with the final look and that's why I then decided to hammer and blacken it to try give it a bit more of an authentic old look.
Brass bar blade 5mmx50mmx300mm
Maple burl scales
Red washing up bowl liners
Brass pins.

to get a longer lasting and harder edge, think about peening that cutting edge. Like a scythe. It will pull a little material out making it thinner and harder. Then run a stone over it once or twice to fine tune the edge, and you will be good to go.
It will harder if you hammer it.
Very nice. I’ve never seen a copper knife unless you consider a copper letter opener shaped like a sword as a knife. I love copper and silver. There’s something so warm about both metals.
This was just a little experiment but id certainly like to try it again just maybe with some bronze or something
Wow!!! Beautiful copper knife.👍👍🔥🔥🔥
Thanks very much
Always amazed when i see thumbs down on stuff like this... Beautiful work!
Can’t please everyone mate but as you can see the good outweighed the bad.
@@DiesInEveryFilm thank you for the video! I have some stock copper bars similar to that! When the power company makes repairs, keep your eyes open. I let the stuff sit for over a week and then grabbed it! To the average person it looked like steel junk!
wow, we're back to the bronze ages! Well done.
Bronze Age would be ....................... Bronze 🤦♂️
I love the blade shape and handle... it reminds me of the knife i got
Thank you
Awesome man. Copper is such a beautiful metal and when it's sharp, it cuts.
Awesome stuff thanks o much buddy glad you like it. Hope you checked out my other videos and don't forget to subscribe and share your favourites it helps me out loads 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The brass is so nice 👌
Thanks for watching
Beatiful. I want one exactly like that.
Old video id definitely do a better job nowadays
Absolutely gorgeous work.
Thanks very much 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That thing is fricking dope!!
Thanks man
Sure! Next, you should try making a dagger or something. Maybe use brass or bronze though, 'cause they're stronger than copper. But I seriously like the old-timey/primitive/EDC vibe I get from that knife.
Looks fantastic and I’m sure the patina will look even better over time
Thanks dude yeh I'm looking forward to seeing the patina 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This reminds me to make furnace. I got plans to make freestanding pull-up bar/swing set along with diy casting/forging furnace 👍
Do it mate
👍 Beautiful 👍
I'm glad to see different metals being used in knife making, if only for the art.
Thanks wil yeh I'll be doing plenty of different builds now. Need to make my channel stand out from the rest and give people something new 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yo.... you've literally done everything mate, I just thought how many copper knives are there... and you pop up hahaha 👍
Tried allsorts mate, always like doing stuff that’s different.
Nice knife.. Great piece of wood. Thank you for showing it to us.
Thanks so much buddy I'll keep showing them while everyone keeps watching 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
good job. Love the copper blade.
Thanks mate it was certainly fun to make I enjoy trying different things
Pretty cool! 👍
Thanks mate
Very cool!! I like to see something different. Good job.
Plenty more to come buddy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great idea, great job!
Thank you
It’s a great show piece!
Yeh man sure is
love how the copper looks and whike its not the most hard wearing of materials i would love to see you working with it again. keep up the awesome vids 👍
I like the Charlie Chaplin approach to your video. Knife is very handsome.
Thanks mate I always try to make my videos different
That was the first video i watched on your channel. And i was like maaan he uses copper for a knife, he is s mad man 🤣 but there was a time in history where we used copper as a tool, 6000 years ago. So i was like that looks amazing, i have to try it!
For sure mate, fun experiment
That is beautiful.
Thanks dude
Very nice like it a lot. Thanks for the video
Awesome stuff thanks for watching. If you get time I have lots of other stuff on my channel
GORGEOUS!!!!!!!
Thank you
This takes the whole ‘1000 Degree knife’ fad to a new level! XD
Seriously mate, amazing video! Your skills make me sooo jealous!
Hahaha thanks buddy doing something different make the trolls come after me hahah 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice copper knife dude very cool
Thanks buddy got another different build coming soon 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
It's a good looking knife but will it hold an edge? I know you can work garden copper an there's a chemical treatment that does the same thing but?
I did work harden it thats why i hit it with the hammer. I did explain this in description and it was just an experiment
Very beautiful knife
Thanks very much
Very nice job love the overall look of it I think I may try that myself
Nice one mate thank you very much. Give it a go
After this video you should make a knife out of brass and then aluminum and other soft Metals just to see what it looks like I would love to see those videos
I did do a carbon fibre one as well
Brother thanks for another great video. Like always.
Thanks bro. I'll keep them coming for my awesome subscribers while you keep watching 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
hi, thanks for the video. please, i want to cut, 12mm thick copper bar. what disc to use (power hand tool) ?
Thanks for watching, i would use a normal cut disc it’s slow but works
Ben bakır a dokunmaya kıyamıyorum sen bıçak yapıyorsun 😂.😊👌🇹🇷
Thanks
Will it hold up to steel, probably not. But it's bad ass and I commend you for doing what most are to afraid of doing. Thank you for the great video and inspiring us to do the abnormal.
I just enjoy trying different things
Wow I really like that copper knife pretty cool idea used to be used way back in the old days before iron come along but they added nickel to make bronze with it held a better Edge
Thanks very much buddy I like to try something different I do want to make a bronze one soon just saving up the bronze to cast it. I recently did a carbon fibre blade aswell 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Love it , different but you usual excellent workmanship
Really beautiful! What oil is that you soaked the handle in and for how long? Handle looked nice and shiny at the end did you put something on it after whatever was in the jar? Really like how it turned out, only thing I would change would be the blackener I think it detracted from the over al look of the knife. I would maybe move dimpleing process with the ball pin hammer to before the sharpening sand down or somewhere in the middle of all that and also a bit less black if possible, maybe the sanding would accomplish this. Copper tones naturally over time so maybe not needed at all? Idk just a few novice ideas. Nice knife. Thanks for sharing.
It's boiled linseed oil soaked for 24hrsand left to dry 3x then polish. I dimpled and blackened for a bit of contrast I don't like it all to just blend into one it doesn't look good to me. Copper does patina over time but it takes years for it to happen so not worth the wait
I personally thought it was awesome, especially when you patinated it to looked aged. Well done.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻let the trolling begin 😂
Thanks Chris. Strangely not much trolling was had unfortunately haha. The video didn't do as well as I'd thought 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
It looks really cool at the end nice video :)
Thanks very much glad you like it.
Yeah man I like the idea! Great look, probably won't hold a edge for more than a minute, but as a show piece... very nice! Copper is such a pretty metal.
It looks good man
Thanks buddy feel free to share the video and I hope you've subscribed to see more 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice i like the handle
Thanks buddy. It's cool wood. Check out the Viking seax I made with the same wood it came out a lot more clear 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
So friggin awesome
Haha thanks man. This video was the start of something different and hopefully something to get my channel boosted 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Love it!
Thank you. New video up today 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!
Thanks dude 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Cool as hell man
Thanks buddy got another different knife build coming soon 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
What is the purpose of the liner? Is there oil in the wood that would be bad for the copper? I was also thinking about a decorative copper knife one day. Just trying to get info and technique.
I just put it in as decoration as I thought the liners would split up the copper and wood colour similarly. Awesome man definitely worth doing I enjoyed making this 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
very cool Knife great work
Hey there thanks buddy. Just about to head over to your channel and watch a few videos 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Love it a real beauty would like to see a double edged one made of silver
Thanks buddy. If I could afford a slab of silver I'd definitely attempt to turn it into a knife that's for sure 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
SWEET ! Thank you for the inspiration !!
Not a problem buddy thanks for watching 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I really like this knife! Nice video! Keep up
Really cool concept man I really dig the look. I think copper gets hard if you heat or work harden it, which makes me wonder if it will hold an edge better. I don't expect it to get as sharp as steel but curious to see if work hardening it will make sharper. Nice job!
Thanks Dan. Yeh you hit copper to work harden and heating it makes it softer. I was going to try harden it but left it too late in the build 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice!
Dear
What is the best leather to make knife sheath because I used cow leather it was too strong to cutting
Waiting your advice regards.
I use all sorts of different leather but I'm not an expert so probably not good to ask. All leather is hard to cut tho check out my sheath making video and see how I cut the leather 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I saw that there are a good many varieties of copper where some have phosphorous, or lead or silica even manganese to give it certain properties for conductivity or machineability. I always wanted to peen out a copper knife. Good work.
Thanks very much yeh there are different variations and I'll try this again soon definitely
Very Cool Copper Knife. I would like one lanyard hole, so that if I needed both hands I could let knife go and dangle on wrist and use hand and then easily, with a flick, retrieve the Knife. ---mww
Thanks check out some of my other knives. Would be easy to add a lanyard hole to this as the metal is soft anyway
Great look! How well will it hold an edge? Never thought of using copper
More of a show piece than anything to be honest. Just something different 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That's beautiful 😍
Thanks very much buddy check out some of my other builds 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The knife looks nice but as a newb to knife making videos I am wondering what are the pros and cons when using copper? To date, this is the first vid I have seen where the maker is using copper... My first instinct is that this knife will not be as strong as a steel knife and will not hold an edge very well... Am I wrong?
It's just a bit of fun but copper can hold an edge lots of old knives and weapons were made from copper it's work hardened unlike carbon steels. But obviously it wouldn't last as long as carbon steel knives
A good white boy working with his hands in a fading trade keeping it alive making a sick fucking knife. MLH&R
Hahaha thanks man 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Ok. Price is cool. I would like one like you made ..... its a skinning knife i'm going to use it.
Message me on my Facebook page to talk further. It's linked in video description 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
sexy knife, also, you can hammer harden the edge by tapping it gently, just don't quench it.
Thanks buddy yeh I need to try it again but work harden it. Check out some of my other videos 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is pretty cool you should force patina it 👍👍
Thanks man yeh I'm looking into forced patina as I want to build another one like this 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Muy buen trabajo amigo Saludos
Thank you buddy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
awesome!!
Thanks buddy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Did this material sutable using for food and health
Regards
Yes this is very food friendly copper is the best material for food use 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Beautiful until oxidation hits it wonder how it will look once it turns green🤔
I actually like the look of a copper patina so its obviously different for people
It's beautiful but you can get the edge sharper if you work harden it
Yes and i did this by hitting it with a hammer
Turned out great! But does it even hold an edge...?
Thank you buddy. It holds an edge but not for long. I do plan on doing some testing with it and the scraps I have as I'm going to try harden it aswell 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Diesineveryfilm Customs why you didn't harden it from the start ?
Very nice
Thanks for watching 👍🏼👍🏼
Hmm I wounder if you could get a piece of ceramic and make a kitchen knife . You should give that a go.
See now you are thinking. That's why I try this stuff. Nobody had done the break disc knife till my video and now loads of people are doing it. Think outside the box 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Big question.
Where did you buy the blank?
I'm looking to do a similar project
I was given this by a friend but I'm sure any metal supplier will have some 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Cool
Thank you
Great craftsmanship, you should think about selling them, would like to have one of your copper ones, as seen in this video.
I still have this one although I broke the wooden handle I'd Ben happy to re handle it if you'd like to buy it.
DiesInEveryFilm Customs ....what would you charge, if you stated it I apologize I didn’t see it....
+William Carter wouldn’t be much mate as its not really a proper knife so id be selling as a ornamental item.
DiesInEveryFilm Customs no worries I totally understand, here’s my email feel free to let me know....vipe1011@centurylink.net
By the by, nice tattoos! So… I like the look of copper, but I wouldn’t use it to make a knife. It’s soft and unreliable, I’d use Aluminum Bronze for that. But I like how it turned out, might not be practical, but it is pretty
It's perfect for cutting butter.
It will definitely cut more than butter it's sharp and not that soft as I did work harden it a bit 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Diesineveryfilm Customs oh good ! Is the edge retention close to some basic steels like 440A , now ?
perhaps some sorta work hardening on the edge would get it to hold a better edge sharpness?
you could work it like a scythe maybe?
Yeh I have been looking into work hardening the thing is it gets hard but there's a thin line between hard and it just crumbling so cause I'm not too sure I need to practice more and do another build once I know the metal better 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
What grit is on the sander for sharpening the knife, and shaping the handle?
It's very difficult to explain cause I use lots of different grits getting higher and higher till I get 1000 then I sharpen and similar with the wood.
I love this build. Just watched it again with the wife to show her your cool craftsmanship. Great stuff! I was curious though, do you think this would be sharper if you peened it like a sythe?
Haha that's awesome man hope she liked it. Yes it can be work hardened and I did do it a little bit but need to practice it before I try again as there's a fine line between hardening and it crumbling 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Diesineveryfilm Custom Knives lol good point. Yeah man she thought it was pretty cool.
Awesome glad she did. New video is up now 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
beautifiul thanks for showing ;)
No problem at all thank you for watching 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Looks sick man. You could’ve gotten the edge harder and sharper by work hardening though, since you can’t quench it like steel alloys
Thanks buddy. Yeh I need to look more into the work hardening process of copper and revisit this build 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Lololol…. No…….
Freey good
Queation?
Could i make this my hand with a grinder hand saw
Yes you definitely could
Wow
Awesome
Thanks buddy this was a fun build got another similar build coming soon 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That’s fantastic! Found your video on the ATC site, I’m a new member there.
Thanks buddy check out some of my other videos hope you've subscribed got more cool builds coming soon 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yes I am subscribed!
I'll sub also because this is really freaking awesome I forgot to say that In the last comment
Cheers man. Check out my latest video
@@DiesInEveryFilm will do
I wanted to know if 525 penny's are enough to melt and make a knife like that
No clue mate sorry
While not really important for a display knife, it'd definitely worth it to toy around with hammering the final edge to shape to take advantage of work hardening.
Yeh man I did have a play work hardening but was too much of nothing to show in video. It gives a good edge but also took a long time. Thanks for watching 👍🏼👍🏼
That’s fantastic! Found you on the My a
Can you tell me the price for knife like this ?? Please thx a lot.
Probably be about £80 but it's a show piece not really a working knife 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
sweet knife . may be made of copper but at least it was easy to cut n grind😂 keep it up man
Thanks buddy. Yeh it was easy to cut but a pain to grind as it clogged the sanding belt haha. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is the first time I had seen his face
I show my face in loads of videos
it needs natural patena rite? nice luv it
Yeh im hoping to build up a natural patina on it
WoW
What?
What copper alloy did you use for this?
Copper
@@DiesInEveryFilm I guess I should be asking what grade or type of copper is best for Knife making.
@@seandogg7504 none is good, this was just an experiment
Can you laminate a steel knife with a copper spine and all?
Could silver solder it but wouldn't hold up and hard to heat treat without oxy/acet. I looked into it haha 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
