Making a Hunting knife from an Old File
Ойын-сауық
And another one !
I made a simple knife from a file again, and i absolutely love how it turned out (which is rare !!). The way i did the mirror polish worked much better than any other time, because i tried new techniques.
After the bevel grind, I switched from the belt grinder to a variable speed angle grinder with higher and higher grits, and then polishing compound. MUCH more efficient and way better result !
I like making knives from files because the heat treatment is very simple, and it’s easy to maintain a high rockwell hardness. It is absolutely razor sharp as you can see !
The handle is blue stabilized wood (i should know the name, but i don’t) with brass pins.

Nicely done. I have a 16" rasp that I plan on turning into a Walking Dead bowie.

Just give it a go ! Files and rasps are easy to find, and very cheap. There's a lot you can do with them ! just don't forget to anneal it before working on it, otherwise... good luck !!!

Cncest, i think i paid 120 euros for this one. This website had bad reviews but i decided to give a try considering it was much cheaper than anywhere else. It doesn't hold strong enough for machining though ! thank you :)
Tres joli resultat bravo. J'ai récupéré une vieille lime sur un vide grenier mais elle fonctionne encore tellement bien que je ne le suis pas encore lancé à la transformer😅. Beau travail en tout cas et cest vrai que le poli est superbe. Ton suport de disque pour la meuleuse est rigide ou souple? Je m'abonne !

Merci beaucoup ! Oui les bonnes limes il faut les garder, je prends des limes qui ont déjà bien ramassé pour faire des couteaux en général, pas de perte :) Mon support en "rigide", mais je compte en acheter un souple aussi car je pense que les deux sont complémentaire. Apres vu que le support est en velcro ça laisse un peu de mou quand même (impossible de le faire "rebondir" comme un disque super dur par exemple)
Был ли отпуск после закалки?
