    I don't understand your language, but it's okay. Enough learning is being achieved with just videos. Thank you so much for the video.

    Really love this! Very unique and cool. One thing I recommend for the future is to use a tapered hand reamer to ream your holes slightly after drilling. It’ll give your pins more room to mushroom in the holes for a better hold. I did this on some peened brass bolsters and it was so strong, you couldn’t move them at all. I love peened handles and bolsters, wish more people did this.

    That blade is a beast and I really like the finish. That rough look just looks right.

    Dude, I am making the exact guard, except out of Copper. I didn’t know how I was going to attach it to the blade?? Your timing is impeccable ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

    Beautiful work. Question… if I want to have the guard stick out in both directions not just sharpened side of blade, how would someone go about doing that? Thanks

  • @brianannarino9166

    Could you put a thin coat of epoxy on the guard between the blade and guard befor you pin it to keep dirt and water from getting under it sort of a weather seal

    Can't remember what it's called but do you prefer that rotary tool 🆚 Dremel 🤔. I've never done a guard before, I'm gonna try this style 😁👍 thanks man love that bowie

    Yeah, I like the rotary tool way better. It's easier to use especially with the foot pedal.

    The guard looks very cool! Are those brass pins you’re going to peen it on with or was that just me eyes?

    How do you get a close tight fit between the guard and handle scales?
