Making A Folding Knife

In this video, I'll show you step by step how I turned some old sawblades and a piece of burl wood into a functional and sustainable folding knife. As a DIY enthusiast, I always love to give discarded items a new life by turning them into something unique and useful.
I greatly enjoyed the making of this project and I hope I can inspire some people with this video. Enjoy watching and feel free to leave a comment!

    Thats a handsome knife. Well done. I was hoping to see a bit more of a locking knife but i like this one just fine.

    At first I didn’t get why you welded it but then I saw how clean it looks. Nice job. Still think putting threading and using screws is better so u can clean and oil it regularly but this can be done without disassembling too I suppose. Ur video deserves more views

    I get your point, but I went for pins instead of screws for a cleaner look and because the mechanism is rather basic and indeed easy enough to clean. Also because this is just my second fonding knife ever made and I lack the experiance of using screws. However, my first folding knife, wich is basicly the same as this one, I made over 2 years ago and cary that one everyday with me ever sinds, and never got problems so far. Thanks a lot for your feedback! Greatly appreciated!

    Bro I can imagine trying to get the right thickness when you first tried that idea. When I see you do it on the video I had a smile from ear to ear. We all know how hard it is at times to find the correct washers. Have a good one Bro

I wish you the best of luck with your first folder, dont be surprised that some frustrations could be envolved in making these things, they can be a real pain in the ass, but its a great way of learning new things and in the end you gain a lot of fulfilment! Good luck and thanks again!

    Hey there! Thanks a lot! I designed this knife all by my self, I drew it out in Sketchup and 3D printet the parts to be shure everything fitted correctly. It took some trail and error to get to the wright design and measurements ofcourse.
