Wow, I can only dream of someone making such a beautiful thing for me. I hope it gets passed down to your great, great, great, great grandchildren and further.
That is possibly one of the coolest knife builds I have seen on here. Well done and thank you for sharing!
One million views and 1.6k comments on my favorite knife! I’m so proud of you son!
So much knife making content on KZread anymore that it’s really hard to make a knife stand out in the crowd. Well you got my attention, absolutely beautiful craftsmanship.
Astounding workmanship! Truly a heirloom and doing justice to the heritage a tool can have!
I am a knife Smith, wanted to say this knife is something to be proud of.

That's a BEAUTIFUL knife! You picked the perfect shape for that thick old file! It screams high quality vintage craftsmanship you can't get from a factory. ✌️
That knife is the most beautiful knife i have ever seen in my life...the shape, color, handle...everything...i'll be dreaming to have one.
This knife is awesome, I had seen lots of knives making videos but only commented on this video so far, its because I love this knife and enjoyed seeing you makes this knife. Thank you
Apart from the music bringing back to watching Southern Comfort, lol, the quality craftsmanship of this knife was beyond outstanding.
Wow in my 50+ yrs of playing with knives that might be the most beautiful knife build ive ever seen. Great job wonderful work.
That is a thing of beauty
Beautiful knife, I love the thickness of the tang and the pattern of the file. Thanks so much for sharing. I started a small file knife about a year ago and got it ready to heat treat, but stalled on it. This is helping me get back on it. Cheers

Awesome! Thanks for watching.
Who couldn't love that knife. It's gorgeous, well done!
Love the beefyness of that blade.
I like it Leaving the file intact on the middle of the blade works really well on this knife
I really like how elegant it looks from the side. I thought it would look big and fat with that beefy file, making the handle thick. You made it work perfectly! Nicely done!
Very nice knife, and what's catching MY eye, is the shop! Tidy, neat, arranged, very pleasing to see!
You gotta love American craftsmanship. Job well done.
Gorgeous your freehanding is second-to-none Sir

Beautiful knife , love the shape. Definitely something to be proud of.
That is pretty damn sweet and the fact that it has meaning makes it even more spectacular. Nice work
Very nice craftmanship on that bad boy! Great video also thanx.
A very pleasant shape of the blade and the handle, I like that you left the patern of the file on the blade, it looks good but most of all I like the handle, the colors, the shape and the finish, they are all perfect for my eyes. Thanks for the video
Id love to do this with one of the files i got from my wife’s grandfather. He was a union boiler maker and then a union electrician later in life. I inherited a ton of his tools including a plethora of files.
Really like how you left the file markings on there, and that grain of the Zebra wood contrasting the laminate, very cool for sure, great knife!
looks great some modern things on it and itll still be timeless and look nice for years to come
Definitely a knife worth handing down for generations to come.
Very nice job. Definitely a father to son hand-me-down that can run for generations.
Absolutely gorgeous!
Just diving into knife making. This knife is beautiful, man! I love that you left the file design as it also serves as a cool memorial to the history. Great job
Great work! I love that you highlighted the character of the original heirloom tool as part of the design! A terrific three-generation treasure.
Truly a work of beauty
I'm normally partial to layered steel but this was a nice piece. And great idea as an heirloom.
Fantastic. What's amazing is you made use of an old file and made a durable beautiful knife.
It is really a very nice knife. The body size and thickness are very nice. I really like
the handle is outstanding
I can't get enough of file knives!! Awesome work, Erick!!
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing and mentioning the materials.
I'm in love with that knife. Gorgeous!
Really a beauty. Impressive free-hand-sharpening skill
That is a really fine knife that would be much appreciated, and a very fine hand it down. My most sincere compliments!
that a 'cute little knive'! well done!
That’s truly beautiful. I love the way the texture fades into the knife face
THAT is a perfect knife. I'd love to see it with a nice quilted maple handle or something with a lot of chatoyance.
Who the hell are the thumbs down people... I’d really love to see their craftsmanship.

That is a beautiful repurposed tool into a blade! Thanks for putting this on line!
Work of art 🙏
I wish I could afford a knife like that with an all macarta handle on the grip slabs for my EDC. Great looking knife. Thank you for making and sharing the video. Subscribed

If you ordered one one from me, it wouldn't be ridiculously priced. Look me up on Instagram and/or Facebook. 😊
I knew you were my kind of a craftsman when you said "about a 30th of an inch." Nice design and a good looking keepsake. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the vid.
Beautiful looking knife. Love watching this kind of work.
Absolutely love this knife... wow.. awesome.. greetings from South Africa..
It would have been super cool to have seen the reaction from your friend when he seen it. Super cool knife.
I carve, create and build as a professional woodworker, so I’m a pretty skilled maker myself, and I gotta tell you: good job man! That was an awesome build and the final result was absolutely gorgeous! Your creativity, skill and workmanship are top notch. You have the right to be so proud of your work. You deserve great praise... Beautiful, just beautiful!👍
Excellent material and workmanship. Worthy of a collection. Thank you for sharing.
It's not just you - it actually is awesome. Very beautiful piece. I also like how you preserved some of the old file on the blade as a reminder of its history and its previous owner. Two thumbs up!
This knife is epic! I’d be stoked for my dad to pass that onto me !
Awesome job! Looks great! The blade was a little short for my tastes, but that's me. I'm sure the son will love it. 👍
WOW, THAT IS ABSOLUTELY A BEAUTIFUL KNIFE!
Beautiful knife and 1st class workmanship. Love your shop.
I have some of my grandfather's old files and would love to meet a knife for my daughter. Great idea, thanks for sharing.
ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL KNIFE RESPECT!
Beautiful knife! I love how beefy it is.
That knife will outlast us all. What a fun video. Thanks for sharing!
Excelente trabajo , saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Yeah, I love it.
I think it turned out awesome too!
What a nice way to keep a family heirloom. Different job for the tool but the "soul" of the piece has been past down...
great job. i just wish if i knew about this type of hobby back a few years ago, i might be making my own. sorry i missed that window. arthritis. its a bummer
That’s a beautifully made knife...that file design is awesome.
Nice utility knife from an old file. Thanks for your video.
You, sir, have some skill! That is one damn fine piece!
Really blew me away, watching it from start to finish, I'm envious.
Absolutely beautiful
That is hands down the most beautiful knife I've ever seen.
Job well done 👍. Well done indeed

A very beautiful knife. Thank you.

Thank you! It really depends on the design of the knife and the difficulty. I try to make sure I leave enough room in my time estimates for life stuff to happen, if I get it done before that then that's just a plus lol.

This is a beautiful knife and perfect in every way
Great job! I like the horizontal sheath too, nice touch.
Yeah, I didn't see the annealing and was like, "Damn, I want whatever drill bits those are the drilled the pin holes!!!". Very pretty piece! Any PDF of the profile available? That particular profile looks great for these file knives that are made from thicker steel. Very nice.

I haven't made any PDF's yet but I plan on it. I will let y'all know when I do.
This knife felt sharp even before it was made.
Spectacular knife. Absolutely amazing creativity and craftsmanship. 👍
that's amazing, just amazing. would love to own something so fabulously crafted.
Stunning knife dude but... please lower the volume of the music. No problem with the actual banjo ditty itself rather it's just a little too loud so that it distracts a little
Shes a beauty. Your very good at that trade.
A few words about this knife. Amazing, incredible, stupendous. Seriously that is one hell of an heirloom piece. I hope the kid appreciates the level of craftsmanship that’s in it. Great job!
A piece of art. Congratulations.
