Beginner knife making: Forging a hunting/skinning knife from 5160

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hello everyone and welcome to the forge, in this week's video I forge a hunting knife from 5160 spring steel and finish it off with some laminate handle material and a razor-sharp edge. I appreciate you watching! #knifemaking #forged #blacksmithing #maker #howto #tutorial #education

    Good to see so much finessing during the forging rather than mainly relying on stock removal. 👏

    I appreciate you watching! I occasionally do some stock removal builds as well, but forging is my favorite way to work.

    Man, this is elegant in its simplicity. I have tried the exact same thing…same material, too, but that dang steel hardened up on me like diamond, and I can’t get it annealed to save my life. I did exactly the same annealing process too. So I guess it’s gonna have a paracord wrap for handle scales.

    Thanks! The best bet starting out would be use a grinding jig if possible, that's what I did when I first started, it will help keep everything straight. I appreciate you watching.

    Very beautiful knife, exelent work! I’m quite new to metalwork in generall, and I saw that you quenched another way than most others I have seen. Does this have any effect on the bladde? Thanks for sharing!

  • @Mysticmountainforge

    @Mysticmountainforge

    Thanks! I appreciate you watching! Edge quenching is used a lot more than people realize, ABS mastersmith J. Neilson does all of his regular steel knives that way, it allows the edge to harden and keep a sharp edge while keeping the spine soft which allows for better durability, especially in chopping.

    Beautiful knife! Would love a template for that one. You put it in a box of what looked like sand and laid bricks on top, after heating it. What was that and purpose of it? Great videos. Thank you.

    That was hardwood ash, it allows the steel to cool down extremely slow which make sit easier to drill, you can do the same process with a clay based cat litter. I am hoping to eventually get to where i can offer template downloads in the future. I appreciate you watching!
