nice project, quite... ahem... sharp looking. and very useful. much better than store-bought. great character.

Awesome approachable way to make this. Lots of fun to watch and now on my list.

Check out other metal spinning videos. What I'm doing is child's play compared to those who know what the heck they're doing.

Thank you so much for sharing so many neat techniques in 1 video. Lovely project

I really enjoy how clear he was a out examining the process. Really awesome job

I really liked your metal forming. Great tip.

Yes, remarkable, "Well done Sir, another fine Video, and terrific project " that's my remark.

Beautifully done, and I loved the dog!

That’s a great tutorial. I never figured you could anneal or temper with a propane torch. Certainly makes this a doable DIY project for everyone.

Such a pleasing and well presented project, I am going to make one myself. Many thanks!

Very clear and concise, great video!👍

Great project, nicely done

Wow it's one of the nicest videos i've even seen. I'm gonna make it for sure !! Thanks from holland!

The resulted knife was really beautiful, but what actually caught my attention was your explanation about metal quenching and tempering. I finally understood the process hahah

Good stuff! Marking knife is one my list for this year.

THAT is actually a BEAUTIFUL knife . Bravo sir.

Good job. Looks great.

Excellent presentation. You made it so interesting. It flows well. Thanks

A good option for finish on spalted woods is superglue. Do it right in the lathe, be sure to wear safety glasses. Clear finish, nice and hard. 👍

Awesome little tool.

Great video. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful work my friend 😀

Beautiful marking knife

Awesome job! 👍👊

Great video and amazing looking knife!

What an attractive knife!

Perfeita, tamanho bom para portar. Parabéns pela minúcia.

If you are working a lot with spalted wood you should look into a pressure pot (lots of DIY plans out there) and a long-curing expoxy to stabilize the wood and harden it for turning. You will be amazed at the difference this makes.

Yep, well aware of them and their use. I haven't felt a pressuring need to make one. Also cactus juice (of which I'm a fan since I lived in the US) is pretty impossible to come by over here in Europe, so I'd have to find a suitable replacement.

Really nice project, very good tutorial video, you have good knowledge.

Entertaining and educational as always. :)

You did a really nice job. Well done :)

Great job

very usefull and informative to make any kind of knives thanks and keep it up

Nice video! Cool coincidence for me, I started bidding on an E A Berg plane blade a few days ago to make a leather knife.

Nicely done.

Well, frankly, that's the fourth or fifth one I made, because I kept going through the side of the brass and breaking the ferrule. I think it's definitely easier on softer metals, or metals that won't work harden so easily.

Parabéns! Deu dó ao ver cortar uma lâmina Sueca, essas lâminas são excelentes, e no Brasil dificilmente vemos essas lâminas. Excelente projeto!

Very nice

Nice !!

Thanks for going through the annealing and heat treating. The knife looks great. I need to make on of these.

If you want you can use a HSS bar that is user for making tools for the lathe. They are already tempered and you can trace also on metals

You’re right, the spalted Wood is beautiful

Great project. CA glue would make a great finish to strengthening the spalted birch

just came across your channel awesome video Brother I Subscribed 👍👍👍

wow. I wouldn't normally click on this. I saw many and some lil marking.. convinced by word simple. I must say.. after all those making videos FINALLY some information, some description so I know why you do the things you do. it's great when is shared info that is "commonly known". is?

On such a simple project would it be feasible to permeate the spalted wood with epoxy resin to stabilize it for turning?

Great video on how to do! Toolbox good but I would have made the blade longer and I would have made the feral smaller that looks like a really nice knife overall great job

Liked the way you only used part of that fine chisel blade...lots left for other projects! Haven't seen the forming done since TOT did it years ago...nice job. Thanks for another fine video and build!

Would you recommend any specific types of projects for beginners that are too scared to work with too many power tools..?

@SwitchAndLever

6 жыл бұрын

You could've done pretty much this entire project without power tools, you don't need to use a belt sander to grind metal, you can use a file and sand paper. You don't need a lathe to shape wood, you can use saws, chisels, files and sandpaper, and so on and so on. The best project to do is the one you feel passionate about. Think of it as problem solving. How can you do a specific thing with what you have available? Google and KZread are your friends in this!

Metal spinning reminds me of throwing pottery

Old engine oil is great, puts a bit more carbon into the steel. Lower flash point as well.

@SwitchAndLever

6 жыл бұрын

I wouldn't recommend it, a motor picks up all sorts of crap while running, such as heavy metals, and that tends to collect in the oil. The smoke from old motor oil is downright unhealthy. If you need to get carbon into your steel there are better methods.

Random question, but what video editor do you use? I noticed that all your videos are only in 720p, which happens to line up with the restriction of a free copy of Lightworks. (of course, 720p is more than enough for a high quality viewing experience)

@SwitchAndLever

Nope, I use Premiere. I don't so much see the point in editing in full HD or 4K. My camera shoots in full HD but editing at 720p gives me a bit more options on framing and creative use of the material without upscaling.

Have you ever considered using super glue to make the wood harder? It’s great for making the wood more stable.

@SwitchAndLever

6 жыл бұрын

I don't really like using super glue as a top coating, it's too brittle in my book, and the penetration without a pressure (or vacuum) chamber is not especially deep. If I had a vacuum chamber I would've probably stabilized the wood with proper resin instead.

I feel I should remark on this video, but I'm afraid my comments will miss their mark altogether.

Beautiful piece of work but I should think the blade be a little longer..

Sadly I can't even make this

The spinning scotch-brite on the lathe is a death-trap, a life-ending accident waiting to happen. Scotch-brite is notorriously "grabby" and can fling this small blade like it's nobody's business. This kind of abrasive should be used, in the context of knife-making, only as a belt on a belt grinder, and then only with the blade held tip-down and without any king of rest/table. I'm one of those who laugh at overly safety conscious people on the Internet, but this one legitimately made the hair on my arms raise.

@SwitchAndLever

6 жыл бұрын

You should never grind anything with the tip up anyway, way too much chance to grab even on a fine grit belt. They make wheels for benchtop grinders from scotch brite as well. Granted my contraption was a bit more MacGyver than what that would be, it was also spinning at a much much slower speed than a benchtop grinder. Even if it grabbed the blade it would have, at worst, tossed it down into the chip pan of the lathe. Not saying it's safe, but not much more dangerous than a scotch brite belt or wheel.

Couldn't you also stabilize the wood and get it back to being structurally sound?

Not the same thing. There is a reason to have a flat side up to the bevel on a marking knife. A utility blade has two believes, not making it as suitable for the same task.
