Forging advice: Don't put your thumb on the handle, it will lead to repetitive stress injury (tennis elbow). Wrap all the way around the handle. Life the hammer from your shoulder, not the biceps, it involves more and larger muscle groups and you'll get tired slower and get a lot more power. Great project!
Yup... watching the design transfer to fresh paper for the cutout, and thought THAT was the template he was talking about for a second... then registered "make it out of aluminum so it'll last longer"... and my face scrunched up horribly... till I realized he was talking about an aluminum template... terminology... TERMINOLOGY!!! ...maybe I should lay off the damn word-games... ;o)
Greetings from finland !Great job again Pask ! that looks a lot like finnish woodcarving knife ! we call it "Puukko" if u break the word "PUU" means wood... Carpenters, fishers ,hunters , lumberjacks, and woodcarving artist all use this type of knife in finland.... some have little bit longer or wider blade and the body goes thru the handle everytime... nothing FULLTANG SHIT here... Knifemakers in finland burns with the knifebody to be exact to the handle while in final heating prosess... and they put little piece leather between copper and wood.... wood expands and shrinks even with this direction just a little bit.......I Love ur channel Pask.. these videos make my day sometimes :D
Very impressed when you cut the end grain and left a polished edge. Great video! I’ve watched this video many times, and have learned something new every time. Thank you Mr. Pask.
Wonderful knife and great video. I've been hammering copper electrical wire to make small sheet for over twenty years. It never occurred to me to do the same with pipe. Awesome tip. Thanks!
Another awsome build! Today i was working in my shop and I was thinking i need a carving knife. I was searching where to buy one, but you just make it yourself. That inspires me now! Thanks
Hey, great work! Might I add some tips, from one amateur blacksmith to another? -Keep your anvil close to your fire so you don't lose heat. -Don't put your thumb on top of the hammer as you're striking, it'll transfer all the kinetic energy into your tendons and wreck them. -If you use your brush in only one direction it'll last longer since the bristles won't wiggle themselves loose as much. -You can choose to put your touchmark on it after the initial grinding, before heat treatment, so it'll be deeper as you're not gringing away at it as much. -You're right in using the thickest one. As the saying goes: "if you want a good edge win, forge it thicc and grind it thin." But don't take my word for it, I'm just a random dude on the internet who learned most of the craft from youtube videos. It's a great little knife you made in any case. Well done.
Brilliant knife. You make it look so accessible. 2019 is the year I give knife making a go and this world be the prefect start. Thanks for the excellent videos.
Did anyone else get a little freaked out by that sound around the 12:22 mark? "Was that an ambulance? A dirt bike? Or some feral bush animal sneaking up on Pask?!?"😂
Congratulations. What a very mesmoring video. It's incredible to watch your fine skill, and the knowledge which you exhibit. You break down the process so well.
That is an absolute work of art, I'm so impressed by your commitment to it and the challenges you've overcome. That tapered faceted ferule is something else! Watching you learn helps me learn and your work is inspiring. All the best mate
Thanks for a great video. I think I'm amazed by your perseverance every time I watch one of your videos, and that's how I get to 250 grit sanding!! I think, "if Pask can file that copper I can sand this walnut!" Cheers man!!
Your work is really beautiful and seeing how happy you are by doing it is amazing! Discovered your channel just recently and I am already a big fan. It's so peaceful to watch :) Keep up this awesome work! Greetings from Brazil \o/
Great job. Thanks for sharing. Now I know why I did not throw away those old car springs! Now I only need to gain "some" skills to makes such knives. Won't be easy!
First of your videos I’ve ever seen. Interesting video on many levels - I was particularly fascinated with your band-saw jig, so I’m going to hunt for your video on how to make that...
Forging advice:
Don't put your thumb on the handle, it will lead to repetitive stress injury (tennis elbow). Wrap all the way around the handle.

Great project!
Thanks very much for the advice, definitely makes sense! :)
i guess Im kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good place to stream new series online ?
@Larry Elisha Flixportal :P
@Jaxson Harrison thanks, I signed up and it seems to work :) I appreciate it!
@Larry Elisha Happy to help :D
That’s a super wood carving knife, and I love the sound of the wood getting whittled away.
“I made this jig so I can build this rocket into space using the band saw.”
- Pask 2023
This is how great I think he is.
Love it! Classic Pask style - honesty about setbacks and how you overcame them to produce an amazing piece!
In the beginning misheard and thought you were gonna make the actual blade out of aluminum. Was thinking you lost your mind lol
Zeke b me too.... I rewind the video thinking past has forgotten his meds. Lol
Same

Zeke b yeah I was really curious how an aluminum knife blade would last longer than steel 🤣
@@eizzle78 WOul last longer than paper one though. You all just got the wrong point of reference!
That’s a nice and sharp knife. Looks like it’ll be a great carving knife.

Thank you!
The idea of using a step drill and then filing into a taper is pure genius :D
Very impressed when you cut the end grain and left a polished edge. Great video! I’ve watched this video many times, and have learned something new every time. Thank you Mr. Pask.
beautiful thanks for all your movies
Thanks to share it
Good job 👍🏽 hello from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 I like this knife 🔪
Brilliant! Great to watch as making carving knifes at the moment and will be tweaking , ok copying a few things!
Wonderful knife and great video. I've been hammering copper electrical wire to make small sheet for over twenty years. It never occurred to me to do the same with pipe. Awesome tip. Thanks!
Nice touch filing the facets on the ferule. Great work.
Another awsome build! Today i was working in my shop and I was thinking i need a carving knife. I was searching where to buy one, but you just make it yourself. That inspires me now! Thanks
very very good job
Points for patience Neil. Beautiful job.
Greetings from Moose Jaw in Saskatchewan Canada
Very nice work my respect 👍
Nice from start to finish
Good job Pask love your videos and how you narrated them as well.
Nothing better than a sharp knife/chisel, the sounds of it cutting wood is glorious 😊
Great build Neil, well done 🏆👍🏼

Very nice blacksmithing job. Nice carver.
Pask is the man!!
I’m suprised to see how many tools we can do our selfs 😱 and this one is one of my favorite 👍🏼🤩😜
Very cool. Great job. Thank you for sharing.
That handle making jig is clever, I'll go watch that next!
I’ve never failed to be blown away by any of your vids thanks for sharing your imagination.
I love seeing you use all the different tools you’ve made over time, making more tools. Great vid.
awesome project and process!
Really nice work...enjoyed watching you create this carving knife! 👍🏼👍🏼
Really liked this one, Neil, nice carving knife. I also liked the vice you have for holding the knife as you did the ferrule work.
Excellent job Sir.
Brilliant knife. You make it look so accessible. 2019 is the year I give knife making a go and this world be the prefect start. Thanks for the excellent videos.
Thanks Alex! You should definitely give it a go - have fun! :)
Did anyone else get a little freaked out by that sound around the 12:22 mark? "Was that an ambulance? A dirt bike? Or some feral bush animal sneaking up on Pask?!?"😂
Excelent project. Congratulations My friend
Wow, looks like you've upped your blacksmithing game. That maker mark is looking great too.
Wow just a beautiful job . Great vid
There's not many feelings better than when a nice sharp file bites into some copper or other soft metal
Great video thanks from London 👍
Congratulations. What a very mesmoring video. It's incredible to watch your fine skill, and the knowledge which you exhibit. You break down the process so well.

I like how you didn't feel the need to cut paper to prove you know how to sharpen a blade. That alone is worth a few thousand likes.
I'm impressed
Thanks for a great video. I think I'm amazed by your perseverance every time I watch one of your videos, and that's how I get to 250 grit sanding!! I think, "if Pask can file that copper I can sand this walnut!" Cheers man!!
That’s fantastic!!!
Nicely done, Mate.
Beautiful!!!!!
Your work is really beautiful and seeing how happy you are by doing it is amazing!
Discovered your channel just recently and I am already a big fan. It's so peaceful to watch :)
Keep up this awesome work! Greetings from Brazil \o/
I liked the spring clamp notching thing you used on the blade.
Keep up the great work!
Use the same template and make another one sharpened on the opposite side. It would make a versatile set.
You are a magician, sir. Great touches with the copper accents. I love your work!
This is very similar to how I make mine. I want to say you did an excellent job on this tutorial.
love the knife.
Looks like forging ain't all that bad when your forge gets that hot. Awesome and inspiring as always Pask!
A hot forge is a happy forge. ;o)
Thanks for the explanation of the zero clearance grind on the blade.
Benedict White it is most often referred to as a Scandi Grind
@@sunnybeach9145 Cheers.
Absolutely awesome carving knife Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job, as usual.
Beautiful 👍👍👍👍👍
I wold totally buy one, great for whittling.
Enjoyed and gave a Thumbs Up
Well that clearly works wonderfully, and it looks like it sits comfortably in the hand. Not much more you could ask for really! Very nicely done! :)
Well done
love watching your videos, even if I am not particularly interested in what you are making sometimes. cheers
Great job. Thanks for sharing. Now I know why I did not throw away those old car springs! Now I only need to gain "some" skills to makes such knives.
Won't be easy!
Very nicely done. I wish I could afford one.
First of your videos I’ve ever seen. Interesting video on many levels - I was particularly fascinated with your band-saw jig, so I’m going to hunt for your video on how to make that...
Thanks - glad you found it interesting! :)
Du bist der Beste.
You're the man Neil! I was just telling my son's that I wanted to make a carving knife. They will be excited to see.
great craftsmanship,
Amazing.
Good effort and keep practicing.
Looks good!
cool design

Great video - yet again! Love seeing you use all those tools you made yourself as earlier projects.
That really turned out nice!
Nice job!
