Все хорошо но где найти такого мастера, чтобы он отправил мне такой нож ручной работы Жека 🎃🤘🤩 слушаю КиШ панк рок 🤘
My man, thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment. I'm no master my friend, I'm just an amateur and I only have basic tools making simple knives. But thank you for your compliment. If you ever have questions,please don't hesitate to ask.
Beautiful 😍 🤩 👌 work
My man...I couldn't upload the full video right now cos internet is so bad in my place after a hurricane. I Will upload the full video as soon as normal internet resumes. Thanks for watching.
do u have a sketch for that knife?
I don't really keep any sketches of any of the knives I make. I'd just have a rough shape in my head and then I draw it out, finalize the design, cut out the paper and just paste it on to the steel and just go from there. Thank you for watching..
What type of wood is better for sheaths? soft or hard woods?
Ok for sheaths stabilised softwood are the best. Pine and poplar are great. Hardwood tends to bend and warp overtime.👍
5:06 The sheath doesn't fall out, how do you keep it in place? is it just the pressure of the wood against the blade?"
My friend If you carve the wood accurately enough in the shape of the blade and the bevel and plunge lines ans so on, it always fits tightly like the handle of a katana. Thank you for watching and commenting. Making of competition chopper coming in few days. Check it out.
@@mikchrungBLADES thank you for your time and answers! 🙂
@@Argentuza my pleasure my friend....and thank you for checking in.
Good job ! I think it broke because of 2 things : 1 - maybe the edge was too thin 2 - more important, i think it was too hot Try not to heat the steel very much above the point where it looses magnetisme, or it can warp, break and will be a lot more brittle because of the grain size in the steel.
You are right my friend, I have broken and cracked many knives because I quench the steel too hot. Yes and if the edge is too thin it tends to crack or sometimes come wavey. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Bravo.
My friend, thank you for watching and your comment.... I appreciate it..
Nice work! Respect….
Thank you brother.....Glad you like it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Making of a "competition chopper/real nail cutter" coming this weekend..do check in.
You have skills, great job.
Thank you brother, thanks for checking into my videos and commenting. Appreciate it.
Man there are guys with 10,000$ worth of knife making tools that can’t do that.
My friend thank you for watching my video and commenting. Ya if I had a belt grinder I could upload videos every week, but using only files and chisels it takes about a month to make one knife. Making of a competition chopper coming soon.
VERY nice work, sir!!
Thank you so much brother for watching my videos and commenting. Making of a competition chopper coming soon.
Thank you. I really enjoy your videos. I am interested in how you straighten leaf springs. If you could please include this in one of your videos, I would be appreciative.
My friend there's nothing much to straightening leaf spring or any other steel. If the steel is not yet hardened and tempered you just have to heat up the steel till it's red/yellow and hammer it till it's straight. If it has been hardened, e.g. if a knife warped/bent after quenching, I first temper it and I cover the cutting edge with wet cloth and wrap wires around so the cloth don't fall off, I tighten it in a vise then heat the spine up to bluish colour and start bending it back hard over the straight line of the blade hold it there and pour water over it.reapeat till it's straight.Sometimes this takes several hours. But eventually the blade will straighten and the temper on the cutting edge is not affected. Thank you for watching and your comment.
Thank you everyone for watching and commenting. I just wanted to let everyone know that i wish i could upload videos more often but as you've seen i have no power tools or a proper workshop. And making a knife the way i do takes about ten times as long without proper equipments. Plus i shoot the videos myself, make the knives, also edit and upload them and all with just a $120 phone. So you can imagine how making one videos takes everything i have everytime. But thank you for your understanding and your patience. Making of a big chopper/cleaver coming soon.
Wow! That is really nice! And with no fancy tools! Well done!
Thank you brother. well I just have a small angle grinder and a small hand drill. That's all the power tools I got. The rest are chisels,files,saw etc. My dream is to one day own a belt grinder.. thanks for your compliment and thanks for watching.
nicework it look like a modern tactical knife, it should apeer in a movie or video game.
Thank you my friend, viewers like you keeps me going. Thanks for your compliment and thank you for watching.

Cool! All with simple tools, just like I do. I also make knives. But there is a question, why are you anchoring? Are you a sailor?
(: I just love the idea of an anchor ⚓... Thank u for watching my friend.
With a small amount of tools, I made such beauty. A beautiful knife despite the initial setback.
Oh thank you brother. Yes it's always hard with very limited tools that I have. It takes much longer and it's much more labour intensive to make a knife this way. But Thank you very much for checking out my video and your feedback.
What does a simple belt grinder cost where you live?
Brother, Where I live there is no where I can purchase a belt grinder. I have to order even simple tools like round files online. Even if I could afford a belt grinder I would have to cross a few states into central part of India to buy one.
