Forging advice: Don't put your thumb on the handle, it will lead to repetitive stress injury (tennis elbow). Wrap all the way around the handle. Life the hammer from your shoulder, not the biceps, it involves more and larger muscle groups and you'll get tired slower and get a lot more power. Great project!

“I made this jig so I can build this rocket into space using the band saw.” - Pask 2023 This is how great I think he is.

That’s a nice and sharp knife. Looks like it’ll be a great carving knife.

Love it! Classic Pask style - honesty about setbacks and how you overcame them to produce an amazing piece!

I love seeing you use all the different tools you’ve made over time, making more tools. Great vid.

Nice touch filing the facets on the ferule. Great work.

Great video - yet again! Love seeing you use all those tools you made yourself as earlier projects.

Absolutely stunning. Always with an added value. THX!

Good job Pask love your videos and how you narrated them as well.

Brilliant knife. You make it look so accessible. 2019 is the year I give knife making a go and this world be the prefect start. Thanks for the excellent videos.

Thanks Alex! You should definitely give it a go - have fun! :)

Did anyone else get a little freaked out by that sound around the 12:22 mark? "Was that an ambulance? A dirt bike? Or some feral bush animal sneaking up on Pask?!?"😂

Wonderful knife and great video. I've been hammering copper electrical wire to make small sheet for over twenty years. It never occurred to me to do the same with pipe. Awesome tip. Thanks!

Very impressed when you cut the end grain and left a polished edge. Great video! I’ve watched this video many times, and have learned something new every time. Thank you Mr. Pask.

You are a magician, sir. Great touches with the copper accents. I love your work!

Really liked this one, Neil, nice carving knife. I also liked the vice you have for holding the knife as you did the ferrule work.

Thanks, Neil! As always, so neat, well-thought-through, and enjoyable work you display:) into the next video we go!:)

Nothing better than a sharp knife/chisel, the sounds of it cutting wood is glorious 😊 Great build Neil, well done 🏆👍🏼

Thanks for a great video. I think I'm amazed by your perseverance every time I watch one of your videos, and that's how I get to 250 grit sanding!! I think, "if Pask can file that copper I can sand this walnut!" Cheers man!!

That turned out beautifully Neil. Great work as always.

Great work on the carving knife Neil! Thank you for sharing the video with us.👌👍😎JP

Really nice work...enjoyed watching you create this carving knife! 👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you! The idea of using a step drill and then filing into a taper is pure genius :D

I’ve never failed to be blown away by any of your vids thanks for sharing your imagination.

That's so amazing! Job well done! Love the video and b am very jealous of the knife!

Greetings from finland !Great job again Pask ! that looks a lot like finnish woodcarving knife ! we call it "Puukko" if u break the word "PUU" means wood... Carpenters, fishers ,hunters , lumberjacks, and woodcarving artist all use this type of knife in finland.... some have little bit longer or wider blade and the body goes thru the handle everytime... nothing FULLTANG SHIT here... Knifemakers in finland burns with the knifebody to be exact to the handle while in final heating prosess... and they put little piece leather between copper and wood.... wood expands and shrinks even with this direction just a little bit.......I Love ur channel Pask.. these videos make my day sometimes :D

Very cool. Great job. Thank you for sharing.

Excelent project. Congratulations My friend

Brilliant! Great to watch as making carving knifes at the moment and will be tweaking , ok copying a few things!

Congratulations. What a very mesmoring video. It's incredible to watch your fine skill, and the knowledge which you exhibit. You break down the process so well.

You're the man Neil! I was just telling my son's that I wanted to make a carving knife. They will be excited to see.

I’m suprised to see how many tools we can do our selfs 😱 and this one is one of my favorite 👍🏼🤩😜

I liked the spring clamp notching thing you used on the blade. Keep up the great work!

That was fun! You made that look so easy and the finished knife is perfect!

Good job 👍🏽 hello from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 I like this knife 🔪

Great knife, i love that you leave the mistakes in. We all make them, just have to overcome them in our projects!

awesome job and design, your stamp works great as well

Your videos are always a pleasure to watch :) thank you! The knife looks great!

Points for patience Neil. Beautiful job.

Another awsome build! Today i was working in my shop and I was thinking i need a carving knife. I was searching where to buy one, but you just make it yourself. That inspires me now! Thanks

Beautiful!! Reminds of my marking knife I made from a table saw blade.

Beautiful!!!!!

I made one almost like that to keep in my carving kit, but it's so useful it stays on the work bench instead. Great video.

That’s fantastic!!!

Wow just a beautiful job . Great vid

Excellent job Sir.

Absolutely awesome carving knife Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!

That is an absolute work of art, I'm so impressed by your commitment to it and the challenges you've overcome. That tapered faceted ferule is something else! Watching you learn helps me learn and your work is inspiring. All the best mate

I wold totally buy one, great for whittling.

Amazing job, i've learned something today, thank you!

Great job. Thanks for sharing. Now I know why I did not throw away those old car springs! Now I only need to gain "some" skills to makes such knives. Won't be easy!

Greetings from Moose Jaw in Saskatchewan Canada Very nice work my respect 👍

Awesome job Neil! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

Your videos are awesome m8, really enjoy watching them all! This one is my favourite so far, please keep on taking the time to make them, and thank you! Excellent skills, great looking knife, I'd love to carve with that 👍

Thanks for showing how and sharing that, art work

Very nice blacksmithing job. Nice carver.

Schmicko build, mate. 👍 Love your little logo on the blade too. 👌

There's not many feelings better than when a nice sharp file bites into some copper or other soft metal

I want one! Looks perfect

beautiful thanks for all your movies

Magnificent as always!

In the beginning misheard and thought you were gonna make the actual blade out of aluminum. Was thinking you lost your mind lol

Yup... watching the design transfer to fresh paper for the cutout, and thought THAT was the template he was talking about for a second... then registered "make it out of aluminum so it'll last longer"... and my face scrunched up horribly... till I realized he was talking about an aluminum template... terminology... TERMINOLOGY!!! ...maybe I should lay off the damn word-games... ;o)

Well that clearly works wonderfully, and it looks like it sits comfortably in the hand. Not much more you could ask for really! Very nicely done! :)

That really turned out nice!

Good Evening , Great Build ! You have a Fantastic Shop ! Great Jig for forming a Handle ! Take Care and Be Safe ! Keep Hammering !

nice work and attention to detail, will have to make one of your handle jigs.

love watching your videos, even if I am not particularly interested in what you are making sometimes. cheers

Nice from start to finish

Wow, looks like you've upped your blacksmithing game. That maker mark is looking great too.

That handle making jig is clever, I'll go watch that next!

Pask is the man!!

The knife is really nice and you're forging is great buddy

Great Video as always... Really like your work dude keep it up... Thanks for sharing By the way, your all videos are inspirational to me...

O MY DAYS what a fab vid thank you

Damn u did it again. Well done👍 Very nice. Cant wait to see some carvings u make with it🤔

man o man I'm sooooooo jealous of that sweet new grinder. Oh and great work as always. I always really learn a lot from my friend.

such an amazing piece.

Another great build, Neil. Getting plenty of use out of the new belt sander.

Another great video and project. Love your editing. Cheers! : ) PS - Touchmark turned out great! : )

Beautiful knife Neil!

Masterpiece like always💪

Impressive work!

You never disappoint!

Looks good!

Very nice and cool👌

Looks awesome man!

Hey, great work! Might I add some tips, from one amateur blacksmith to another? -Keep your anvil close to your fire so you don't lose heat. -Don't put your thumb on top of the hammer as you're striking, it'll transfer all the kinetic energy into your tendons and wreck them. -If you use your brush in only one direction it'll last longer since the bristles won't wiggle themselves loose as much. -You can choose to put your touchmark on it after the initial grinding, before heat treatment, so it'll be deeper as you're not gringing away at it as much. -You're right in using the thickest one. As the saying goes: "if you want a good edge win, forge it thicc and grind it thin." But don't take my word for it, I'm just a random dude on the internet who learned most of the craft from youtube videos. It's a great little knife you made in any case. Well done.

Nice job!

Clever handle jig and nice blade.

First of your videos I’ve ever seen. Interesting video on many levels - I was particularly fascinated with your band-saw jig, so I’m going to hunt for your video on how to make that...
