Integral Paring Knife with Nick Rossi at NESM
This video was filmed during our COVID 19 shut down as a fun project for our students who may have some time on their hands and may be doing a lot of cooking. This paring knife was forged out of 1/2" 52100 that was generously donated by Ray Kirk. It also gives us a chance to show off our completed blade finishing room. In our down time we have set up a milling machine, a small lathe, a surface grinder, new air system, built stainless slack tub and much more. We hope you enjoy it and we hope you'll come visit us as things settle down.

Nick it is always educational and entertaining to watch you work. a Well made and enjoyable video!
Hope you still make knives like this. Refreshing to see a forged blade vs flat stock machined blade being called forged.
Always a pleasure to watch the Master at work. Thank you for sharing this with me
I’m liking the multi-purpose under-bench receiver. Especially the big hand wheel. Just might have to replicate that one.
Beautiful knife
Playing catch up on your videos, nice design and sharp,
Great video as always. Very educative. Always a pleasure to watch.
thanks for doing this video. It's a great refresher for me
That was a beutyful build. Thanks for sharing
Great forge techniques 👏🏼👏🏼
that knife is good and hand forging is always greatly satisfying...👍😄
Using tong reins as a fuller? That’s awesome
A voice over of what and why would be nice.
Is there a specific reason for the thick sheat metal inside the oven during tempering ?

The metal helps maintain the ovens temperature.
Is there a reason your using lubrication on a diamond stone? the manufactures release I have read from my diamond stones says it's best to leave the build-up of dust on the stone as it aids in sharpening.
Oh, the integral class postponed.. I'll just keep on working on my damascus skills until then.
beautiful handwork sir!

Nick - what’s the weight on the hammer? I thought that it was a sledge until I saw the pein.

to me, it looked like a 2000 gram Norse style hammer.

Quarantine cross-peen
I cringed the way Nick peened his pin as in my personal experience I have broken a lot of scales doing it that way i find using the ball peen side of the hammer works better. other then that I did learn some new techniques to better make an integral. time to practice on some coil spring as I do not want to wast my 1085 Hitachi steel well I am figuring out how to make a decent integral blade.
