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.
There's a knife that deserves a spot on The Walking Dead!
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.

Great tip! That actually makes a lot of sense.
I love where this thing is going. That's a cool way to do the guard! Looking forward to the month of vlogness!
Something new, good stuff Erick !
That blade is a beast and I really like the finish. That rough look just looks right.
Awesome!…looking forward to my TRE advent calendar!
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 ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
It's looking mean.... Nice work fella.
Working on my first guard fit up right now. Such an excellent video!! Thanks.
Looking really cool so far
Awesome idea i like the texture matching the blade

Thanks 👍
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
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?

I'm debating on doing brass, steel, or copper. I haven't decided just yet.

@@theriversexperience9383 depends if you want them to “disappear”. I’d like people to look at it and wonder how you did it. 😉
How do you get a close tight fit between the guard and handle scales?

Just make a template out of paper and then follow those lines.
Good job my friend….
