The easiest way to do an octagonal faceted wa handle
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
How to get faceted wa handles perfect every time. After one of my last knives I made and put pictures on Instagram of the octagonal faceted handle people asked me how to get it so even and square. So here's the really easy way to do it.

Чего тут информативного пол часа размечал, а получилось все не ровно или у вас косоглазие? Такие ручки делаются с приспособой, тогда все идеально, но лучше купить на али экспресс за 10$ а сосредоточиться на клинке.
Really well done I would really like to see one on handle scales

Hey Toby, great videos! What grit do you use to grind in the facets? I find 120 grit seems to pull out material a bit too fast and the 220 is really slow.
thats ace. thanks for the tip tobes. i will remember that one. there is a trick thats similar ive seen on several wood working chanels like Pask makes, Jimmy diresta and johnathan kats moses, where they use a table saw and an octagonal collet to set the angles to get a perfect octagon but i dont think it would work with a taper like what you do with this. Your method of set up is pretty much exactly how you set up to hand hew a log into a beam.

I'm using router/trimmer with 45° bit profile Very easy to use and consistent results. Plus no need more fancy sanding because it's already smoothen

Hey mate great video. How hard is your belt grinder going? Do you find ends of the handle ever get ground away faster than the middle and it doesn't come out properly flat?

Thanks mate. Nono don't get that problem bud. I have in the early days though. It sounds like your platern may not be adjusted correctly. Possibly to yo far in or out. Have you seen the 6 sheet of paper rule? kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYGMyMSfZMavcrw.html
Great video and a great looking handle. Would you have a link to a video that teaches how to drill the hole for the blade handle ? Thank you already.

hi great video, great work, but if this is the "easiest way" I still think is not so easy. Congrats!! And, by the way, its been long time I saw a japanese video showing a machine (very simle and operating in primitive way), like a jig, to do this work in handle. This machine was composed by a wheel with blades (like plain) moving in the wood and removing material modeling in octagonal shape. I lost this viedo and I have tried to find in youtube but unfortunatelly a I can´t. So please if some of you have this mentioned video or link to, please ping me. thanx.

Planning on making one of these. Hopefully putting the blade into the handle is not that difficult

But I am a normal person lol. Most knife makers I know will improvise if they don't have the exact tool. Ones who don't think that way might not wanna get into knife making 🤷♂️ ps u can't find your KZread channel so I can see how it should be done.
