Cut Handel to length then add a brass button or shell casing

Great job, I like the handle left long. I have been doing this for only 3 years. I am 85 years old. I Get more good ideas from watching you than

Beautiful work with the simplest of tools the sign of a true artist ! Bravo

I’ve watched this video twice now enjoyed both times. One trick I use when I have a small opening between my bolster/guard is to hold it in place tight and lay it on my anvil and hit it with a hammer. The brass is soft and will close the gap. Then take it and use sander on both sides to get back flat. 👍🏼

great knife, leave the handle it was there when it was originally thought out. Thanks for all the great ideas. Tang of the file, tip of the antler, perfect marriage.

Leave it long I’d love to see a custom she’s made for it. It’s a beautiful life.

Don’t cut the handle, love it as is. Beautiful knife!

Great Work. Leave it as it is.

Tim Mizell Thanks Tim. I appreciate input and thanks again for watching.

Keep it..thats where the beauty stands out.. i enjoyed watching your work.. shout out from a small island SINGAPORE to you.. 🫡👍

I would leave the antler the way it is, looks great.

I love your video, especially that you’re using beginners tools, I learned allot from your video 👍🇺🇸🙏

Leave it long definitely,it really sets it off ,one knife maker to another, thanks for the video ,you did a good job

I think that knife is perfect as it is. The blade is still fairly thick, so the extra mass of the handle should help with Balance. 🤷‍♂️ I love the effect of the weather and brass alternating before the bone handle. I wouldn’t of thought of that, I figured the brass guard and a piece of leather right before the antler would’ve been fine, but you are the man, and proved me wrong.

It’s perfect like it is don’t cut it!! Good job and that’s a great video thanks for sharing ur time with us! May God bless you and keep you safe through these bad times!!!!

My vote is leave it as is. You have such a great imagination of your art.

Thanks for the motivation. Been saving materials for a long time. Tried a couple of things but need to get back at it.

I'd leave it just as it is. Great video and thank you for what you do to inspire us all!

I started out with a harbor freight belt grinder and my bevels we're nothing like yours. Great job!!!

Great video, love you're work, please live it long that give caracter.

I have not attempted a knife yet. I have been just trying to control my hammering and make different tools. I enjoyed this video and since I have bought a lot of files from farm auctions. I am going to try this. I like how you adjusted the 1” grinder to get your bevels set. Great explanations of what you were doing

Love it! No fancy tools etc! Great job!

I really appreciate seeing the equipment you work with. Seems too many people are fixated on having the most expensive, top of the line stuff. I am new to this and have been a bit reluctant as my equipment fits my budget. I love the knife and as to the handle, looks great as is! Thank you for taking the time to show us starters how it is done.

I got pretty much that same sander at H F. I created a larger top to replace the tiny work area. Also tapped out for a screw to adjust the angle, with a needle gauge on the side so I know exact degree. Your videos are relaxing and informative. Thanks.

I like the handle as it is. I think that is a beautiful little knife. I truly enjoy your videos Thank You .

I enjoyed watching this video of you crafting this beautiful knife and I would the handle as is.

It's perfect...& Video was 💯% therapy

Cool video great craftsmanship leave the handle as it is

Mark Gutierrez Thanks for the input Mark.

Fantastic!!

Great video, just exactly what I was looking for.

I love your work and the videos! It's nice to see someone use Harbor Freight tools and show that one doesn't HAVE to have the most expensive things on the market to create GOOD, USABLE knives! BTW, leave the handle long. For 2 reasons, most Mountain Man types like the handles left long and 2, if they don't like the handle's length, the buyer has the option of cutting it off and shaping it as desired. Both ways are a win! Great video!

You did a really good job and ended up with a GREAT looking knife! The vid is definitely inspiring me to get out and make something! Thanks for the content, keep 'em coming.

Leave the handle! That's a sexy knife and handle. Nice work.

A great piece of art. Please leave it long ,i love it .

Fantastic job! Loving your channel. Looking forward to the sheath you create for this beautiful knife!

Just leave it like that looks great Good job

Fantastic knife and I would shorten the handle but obviously it's up to the individual .Great work.

Another gorgeous work of art.

Leave as is. Great work, beautiful knife.

That bolster is too nice. Love the idea of using the cymbal.

Great work my friend. Love and respect from Greece ❤️

I personally like the longer handle. Beautiful 😍

Very nice presentation on making a knife from a file.

Very beautiful work. The combination of brown leather, brass and antler looks great. Nice handcrafting too

Thank you.

I recently found your channel while looking for a video on making and osage selfbow. I've now watched all your videos and can't wait for more. I like your simplistic ways of doing things and the attention to detail. Now I've already purchased a belt sander and have a lead on some files I'm going to try my hand at a knife as well. Keep up the great videos!

Leave it long , looks awesome great work

Absolutely excellent job. Thanks a lot.

Another beautiful knife! Great video! Like the handle just like it is!

Just found you. Love that you are a creator working with tools normal people might have. Great work by the way.

When I saw the brass block I thought you were going to melt some and pour your bolster with a tinkers dam. Great knife, and I like the long handle.

WoW ! leave it like this , just perfect 👌

Leave it long, looks great like it is. Nice job. It will look more authentic with the full length.

Great looking knife... Awesome video work.. Looking forward to seeing more..

Leave it the way it is looks awesome

Very good work with ingenuity and recycled materials

Again, pleasure to watch, hope you left it long. Would like to see it now. It is a beautiful piece of work.well done sir!

Who payed you to play the russian?

I was taught to bring carbon steel to the peach orange, Quench then heat to a dull red and leave to air cool, The second quench will retain the hardness but won't be brittle any longer!, Lovely work by the way ;-)

Long and strong is the way to go🥰

It's a gorgeous knife and you are a magician. Keep the handle as it is.....its looking fab!!🌹

I think it is beautiful just like it is. I would leave it long. Great work.

your time invested in it . leave it how ever you like ( nice job )

quite nice! My suggestion is to leave the handle as is. If used as a carver, the extra length can act as leverage, or for a two handed cut. And besides it just looks cool the way it is.

great video - very informative - thanks from the UK!

Beautiful knife

Nice work thanks for posting 👍

Oh man.... You are the best!

Congratulations for this beautiful work! 👍

Great Video! I would leave it the way it is.

it turned out really nice man - i think the antler as is, the way the fella wore it his whole life ya know?

You do some beautiful work mate keep up the good work

That is a sweet knife! Amazing! I would keep it the way it is! It has an elvish blade look to it :) Thanks for the video and I just subscribed!

Very nice! I love it.

Loved the video.

Magnificent knife makeing and instructional thanx a million

Very nice looking knife. Leave it long, I think it looks balanced as it comes to a point at both ends; aesthetically kind on the eyes.

very good job ... exactly what I do my knife

Great video, I am intrigued by your forge. Please do a video on that.

Good job man. It looks GREAT.

Great knife mate. Leave it as is. Adds to the individuality and look. I really do like this knife. Thanks for the video. take it easy.

I like the handle long, great job

Leave long looks organic. Nice knife.

I've been wanting to do something special for my pops on Father's day. He loves knives and the making of them, so I'm going to try and make him one. I've been watching a lot of videos but I like your channel the best. You do great work. New subscriber!
