A lot of people have asked about the polishing stones! I will be making another video covering them in more detail soon! In the meantime the polishing stones I show in the video are 'CS-M' grade stones. I use the 1/4x1/2" size and I buy mine from MoldShopTools.com, here's a link to the right ones: www.moldshoptools.com/catalog/list.php?category_id=77&start=39

This is the first video I've ever seen of yours. That's a fine little knife, very handy looking. I make knives by using the stock removal method, cutting and filing, and eventually it becomes a knife. I like watching the machining process, that was fascinating. 👍

Mr.Gough Thank you! That whetstone stick trick is a GOD SEND! As soon as I saw this video I scooped up a cheap $9 set from Amazon. Grit from 80 to 1000. They wear a bit quickly but you get more bevels done then you would with any sandpaper in HALF the time. They are a consumable but cheaper than sandpaper. Internet fist bump. 🤜🤛 👍

Thanks very much mate!

That bevel machining was super impressive. And doing hard milling is always impressive. And it's always cool seeing stuff be made in (basically) one op! If you want more consistency, and less hand work, I feel like it would be better to mill all the way through the outside of the part, except for the tabs on the first op. This would also put the tabs all the way at the bottom instead of the center which means that the chamfer, assuming it is larger than the tabs, would hide the evidence of errors, so to speak. Of course you need it to be held while machining, so you'd have to drill and tap a couple holes in your fixture that you could put a couple of screws through the decorative holes, that way the part doesn't move during the chamfer. Or if you're lazy, clamp one side, chamfer the opposite side, M0, swap, repeat. The screwing or clamping would probably be needed for bevel machining as well so the tabs don't break. Maybe your way was less risky. /shrug Great vids and knives man. Keep it up!
