Making a knife without special tools. DIY

Hi, due to the breakdown of my belt sander, in this video I would like to show how to make a knife without special equipment, I tried to show all the main points of making this knife. If you liked this video, don't forget to like and share with your friends.

    So, what alloy of steel did you use; what abrasive in your sandpaper; which composite or wood materials. What heat treatment, quench, and temper schedules. You could have done so much better with this video.

    This is what I was looking for! I have a diving knife whose plastic handle has disintegrated. Nothing fancy, but a shame to throw it away, but no special tools. This has inspired me to repurpose it. I have a chunk of rosewood that has been in the shed for a couple of years. Don't worry, it won't be going in the sea again... 😁

    It's not the price of the tool, it's the skill of the artist. Lovely work. What are the materials used in the three thin layers you stacked and glued with epoxy between the guard (back quillon) and the wooden handle? What are their purpose? My guess is they are leather, brass, and steel and they are just decorative? Is the guard made of brass?
