As someone asked for the template of the knife, I've uploaded it to my website. I'm sure you wouldn't want to use my design but if you like the profile of the knife then you can use that with your own internal design. Print the knife at 100% size to make a knife the same size as mine or scale it to suit. You can find it here paskmakes.com/plans/

the design would look more consisten if you make the surface of the blade also hollow (mayb add the work PASK on the Blade and the rest on the handle)

@@lilycamillewolf8086 Well it's July, so I guess your birthday is around this date. I'm well into my 75th year, and I can reassure you that 50 is *nowhere near* "officially old".

Happy birthday ... continue to be successful and, above all, stay healthy

You know you need to make a sheath for it now right? 😉

Love how the time lapse makes the jeweler saw look automatic lmao

Tape on the back of the sandpaper is such a clever idea. Love your videos, I've watched a dozen or so over the last week.

I know from direct experience that you do not start to get old until 70.

Damn! You really wanted some punishment taking on this project!

Who needs laser cutting when you have Neil? Who needs Netflix when you have Neil? I'm amazed at your level of patience and artistic detail. Thank you for inspiring us all and Happy Birthday!

Thanks very much Lyndon! :)

You’re one of the few makers on KZread that says, “it’s not the best but I’m okay with it,” and I like that a lot. And I love the knife! Make a leather sheath for it?

Thanks Joshua! :)

I'm really glad to see you make this piece the old fashion way and not on a CNC machine like a lot of makers are using these day. Anything made on a CNC machine just cannot be called "handmade". Of course if your in production mode for a big profit CNC's are useful. Really nice work here!

A true artist and master craftsman like yourself is never happy with their finished work. The rest of us stand in awe.

Happy birthday man. For a 30 year old, you have the patience of a monk to do all that filing.

Your sense of proportion is really top notch. That’s something that can’t easily be trained you just have to have the eye for it. I’ve seen a lot of custom knives - an old girlfriend of mine was a high end knife maker and, in the world of tactical knives especially, proportion is probably the most important design element. Your knife is fantastic and I really admire the careful hours you put into it. It’s cool that the KZread channel has made it possible for you to make money on a project like this. These days craftsmanship this meticulous in the knife world are reserved for a handful of people at the top who have tens of thousands into their equipment and branding. Or to the few, poor, dedicated smiths that do it for the calling. The quiet dignity you experienced when filing and sawing and sanding is heavily underrated and undervalued in the modern age. Chasing that feeling is what my life is about! Kudos!

Thanks very much for that! I am very lucky that I'm allowed to spend my time doing these kind of projects for a living, I honestly do realise that. I agree entirely that the processes in this project is where the enjoyment of making is, at least for me anyway! :)

Those of us who are still only 49 really can't appreciate how old 50 is! ;) Happy birthday, hope you packed some winter woolies for the southern weather. It's been a bit cool down south lately.

Happy birthday Neil. Have fun and appreciate your wife for giving you all the time to play in your workshop. All the best from South Africa

Pask... picks most difficult one for fun. Makes knife. Looks amazing. That's my man!

No.., you're not crazy, listening to a good book, one could quickly get in the zone and time is no longer a factor. For something that's only piece, there is a lot more time and effort gone into this knife than something with scales, bolster etc, a lot of intricate work gone into it and it shows. It doesn't matter if you're shoveling sheep manure as long as you are enjoying the task, your work ethic and attitude towards going the extra mile is infectious. Keep up the great videos, I have binged watched all your uploads, found them to be very enjoyable and relaxing. BTW.. Have a great Birthday young man.

You've become one of my favorite makers, with Clickspring. I like the interesting projects and calm confidence. You may not know how something is going to turn out but you try, and you don't yell at me.

Craftsman and artist. And no fancy CNC etc. just very patient handwork. A joy to watch your work. Thank you.

Beautiful job sir. Not sure if I have the patience for the hand filing. Recently, I was faced with the task of filing the inside shapes of an eight-spoke flywheel for a Stirling engine. What I did, was to adapt my cheap scroll saw to accept junior hacksaw blades. I then used strong double-sided tape to stick some emery cloth to the blades and used the contraption as a make-shift die filer. It ran a bit fast, but worked surprisingly well. Love your methods, where you use left-overs and stuff lying around to make worthwhile projects. Happy Birthday. I got to 60 in May. My brain still tells me that I am 18, my body disagrees...

Being old is a state of mind, you don't have to be old if you don't want to!!

I'm late to the party, but seeing the holes drilled ready for filing really hit the spot for me @2:03. So unique that it could be a design by itself.

Welcome to the half century club! Lovely knife too 😊

I was hoping you'd choose your maker knife. You've inspired me to dust off my scroll saw and make something. Also.... Happy 50th!!! I hit 47 on the 13th, so I feel you on the "getting older" front. When I visit my 97 year old grandfather, I realize that "young" and "old" are all states of mind. You cannot stop the body from aging, but we can still be young! Cheers!

You either a mad man or the most patient one on earth lol great job

happy bday and love your projects/videos!

Wow, she's a beaut! Happy Birthday and wishes for many more! 50 isn't old, I'm only a few years off from there myself. :D

Happy Birthday. Been waiting for the video. Awesome knife. Absolutely love it.

Showed us the book he's currently listening to, said it was good, and somehow NOT an Audible ad. Favorite youtuber.
