Thank you for showing me how to do this I've been curious about it.

Interesting stuff, my Man. You sure have come a long way. I started following you around Blade Show 2017. You were somewhere around 3,000 subscribers. I can see that your passion for knife therapy has not dulled over time.. I remember your coverage of that show being the best on KZread. You were casual, yet enthusiastic, and asked all the questions that everyone who's a knife fan wants to know. Every time I get one of your notifications, it's like a shout out text from an old friend. Rock on, Brother. Peace.

Thanks that really means a lot and I appreciate your support. That was one of my favorite Blade shows and that gave my channel a lot of exposure because that year it took a lot of them a while to post their videos so mine popped up first Well I hope your having a great day talk to you later

Very 🆒

WOW! I had know idea that's all it took.

Didn't even think I could do something like this. Thank you!

Always enjoy your how to’s. Much appreciated 🤘🤘

Whoa this is an intriguing process Mr Stassa thanks so much.

I always enjoy seeing others share their tips and or tricks of the trade I've only done orange peel and heat ano and other physical chop mods but I enjoy it all I've worked with my hands all my life... Thanks for the content bud by all means keep it coming! I've got a very inspired idea for my nymble x when it comes in I told richie and lyndy I'm sending it to them cause theres a couple things I want them to do that I'm not set up for...

That's awesome! I really appreciate the in depth info.

Interesting, thanks!

I’d love to see some anodizing on the titanium

So glad your doing some mod vids. Tks brother!!!

I've been putting off trying this on a kizer t1, it's slick so this would be great. Keep the how to vids coming. Great stuff man👍

Try a steel wire wheel. Tougher and faster than brass. ✌

Hmmm. I might want to try this on my Flytanium scales. I need a little more texture when I'm working.

Can i do this with aluminum too or will it be too course/remove too much?

You mentioned electroanodizing after this, do you wink it before and does it work well? I like these videos for the record.

I’ve only done low voltage electro ano but I don’t etch because your removing the oxide layer when you orange peel them so I just clean them with rubbing alcohol after doing the texture. I also don’t use wink anymore just multietch because it works so much better you get much better color 👌

Cool video. How would you do this on a scale without also peeling the skin off of your fingers?

@Stassa23

You just do one half at a time then flip it all the way around and do the other half. I should have did it on one of my knives but I ran into so many issues with finding all my stuff for the bench top buffer that I didn’t want to waste any more time. That said you would do it just like I was doing it but go all the way to the middle of the scale. You can also screw the scales down to a block of wood then do it, that’s what I do on small skinny knives and that’s usually what I do when I am buffing scales 👍

Thank you for answering my questions

I have a question about a chop knife. Do you think thewhole blade is harden steel like the edge on an esee avispa. I have chopped it down but now there is a spot in the new part of the belly that I can't sharpen like the rest of the edge. I can't seem to get it to apex like the rest. Any advice would be awesome tks.

@Stassa23

2 жыл бұрын

It’s all hardened but you probably just have a thicker spot there since you did the chop which would take a much steeper edge angle in order to reach the actual apex like the rest. When you did the chop did you bring the spine of the knife down to the edge or did you have to chop it into the apex?

@brandonshehan699

@@Stassa23 I turned in into a spear point. I brought the spine down about 1/2 way and then I brought the edge up to meet it. I tried my best to thin out the tip like it was originally but it wasn't anywhere as nice as it was from factory. I think your right because my bevel at the tip is wider than the rest of the edge. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction buddy. So glad your showing us some mod vids. Thanks brother.

I just removed the orange peel finish from my Advocate. I understand why people like it, but it's definitely not for me. For the record, to anyone hesitant to try it, applying is easier than removing!

That’s why I bought a couple of cheap cheap titanium Framelocks off of either eBay or Amazon to practice on. I think the first knife I tried it on was Eafengrow titanium Framelock that someone sent me and I used that as my practice piece for all the mods I learned how to do so let’s just say it no longer looks like the same knife what so ever

not really "deforming molecules" more like removing them from the work piece.
