- Official Simple Little Life video of knife making - making a hidden tang knife. Here is my first attempt at a hidden tang knife. All in all I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. No talking in this video at all. If you don't like the music, turn the volume down, queue your favourite playlist and you won't miss a thing. Cheers!

About Simple Little Life:
This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.
Just wanted to say that I really appreciated you keeping that blade getting yeeted on your buffer. I think that's the most dangerous (and perhaps most useful) tool in the shop. It's a great teaching that you left that part in. It only takes a fraction of a second for something bad to happen. Nicely done and taught.
I agree 100%. I use tools every day and even after years of experience they can surprise you. Glad I wan’t hurt and figured it was good for everyone to see👍
Just beginning to make knives-- have repaired/restored firesrm for thirty years. Respect quality in the shop. Four years old & still very informative...keep it up.
I have watched your videos from the start of your channel, Each knife you produce gets better and better, I especially liked this video for the reason it was a detailed start to finish video, you put a lot of time and pride into the production of not only your knives but the videos that accompany them, Keep up the great work, its always a pleasure to watch your channel.
Thank you very much! I really do appreciate these comments and they mean a lot. Thanks again!
Newly discovered your channel and have to agree. Even with this video being done over a year ago, this work is stunning. Also very clear you've branched out, tried new types of knives, expanded your skill, and have learned how to make your channel and videos stronger. Keep it up - really great to see content creators like yourself stick with something and see the progress on multiple fronts! You're what makes TH-cam great - would have never thought I'd stumble upon blacksmithing/blade crafting in a million years but I've found something that I'd love to get started in when I have a space that would allow for the tools to begin the basics.
I like that you left in the clip of the polishing wheel grabbing the knife and tossing it. This shows the realism of knife making. Good work 👍
Really nice done!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!
Oh snap! Now that's what i'm talking about! Simple beautiful and practical! Wish I had me one like that.
I must say, you've inspired me to take on a new hobby. I love the attention to detail. Thank you so much for sharing!
I'd just like to say that I find your videos very informative and entertaining! Jeremy you are very talented and have inspired me to take up this craft myself! Thank you!
Great video, I learned a lot about making a hidden tang knife from this video. I am a very new knifemaker and I learned a lot about the details of fit and finish. Layout, metal fabrication using a mill, squaring up etc.. Thanks a lot.
Gorgeous knife, I love the wood you used and the direction of the grain flowed well with the handle contours and blade shape.
Your video held my attention from start to finish. Your tools are top notch and your work is impeccable. The knife is beautiful.
I really liked this knife. It became very beautiful
Another beautiful job. Well done sir.
Best music in a knife making video is awarded to this guy!

Welcome to Alberta :D
Thank you very much! 🙏👍 Good old Alberta. My home sweet home ❤️👍
I truly admire your precision and all of the steps you take to get perfection in the fit. Of course I also appreciate sitting similar precision in the finish... but I learn a lot by when I see HOW you achieve that "fit". Those videoed details matter to me. Thanks Jeremy! Now I want one!
Excellent craftsmanship and video, thanks for sharing.
Beautiful!
Excellent work, nice knife .
Really nice cool simple knife, it is definately 1 of my favorites.
Thank you!
Beautiful knife, great video. Both very well made. That polish was sick!
Thank you!
Beautiful knife, this is one I wouldn't mind having in my collection!
Thank you very much. Cheers!
great quality video and great quality knife, keep up the work man!
Clean knife. Irealy enjoyed the video keep the great work.
That's a really good looking knife and also a very uncomplicated way of making a hidden tang handle. I was overcomplicating it in my head thinking I was going to have to cut the tang shape into some wood (going to make my first handle for a kitchen knife that had a mangled handle) so this video has been very helpful. I hope to have a respectable handle on this knife.
With all those toys I would have to be dragged out if that shop....i got one belt sander and my wife already has to stop me from building LOL. Awesome stuff man.
awesome knife man, great vid!
Very nice I like that one as well
Another beautiful knife you’ve made. I really wish you could do this video in more real time but understand why not. That was a lot of work and time to make that masterpiece. Great job !!!
Good build.. I'll have to admit I didnt like the rounded pommel at first but after grinding and sanding it really worked out. Beautiful piece bro
Great looking knife!
Thanks!
Pure artwork
Thanks for sharing
awesome video. nice work,
im jealous u have your own machine shop. . .nice work man. . .
Lord Allmighty, you are a true craftsman.
Magnifico coltello e video !
Beautiful knife.Thank u sir.
Beautiful knife!..... Gus
Nice work!
Thanks!
Hey Hey - great video and beautiful knife!
+Rick Rabjohn thank you kindly!
your best video by far
Thank you!
What a beautiful knife in the world really..:)
Love the knife
Thanks!
Good job 👍🏻
perfekcyjna praca
Superperfecto!
Nice knife keep up the great work
Thank you!
Great video. Good looking knife. You may consider squaring up the corners where the tang meets the blade after you do the heat treat. 90 degree angles during heat treating cause stress risers and a weak spot in the steel at the 90 degree corner. (thats why so many knives fail at the tang) I round off the corners to 1/8" and then square them after tempering. Just a thought. Cheers.
Keeping them round will be a general good idea even after heattreat, for the same reason.
wow that's a lot of work you put in to making that knife and it look awesome when you finished it good job I like watching the hole video
Thank you very much. I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!
love it!
Thanks!
I really like your stuff
Thank you very much! I appreciate that!
Excellent vid, very entertaining, beautiful fixed blade.
Thank you!
But its a hidden tang knife?
+jason Mackenzie hidden tangs are always fixed blade.
great job!!
Thanks!
dude... well done!
Good job 👍
another great knife mate....lot of work goes into it....but it is a loverly knife
Thank you
its nice and you have skill that started fro a piece of metal and a block of wood
I somehow missed this one in your vid sequence Jeremy but glad I found it today. Another great build mate! Glad the blade didn't come back at you when it caught on the buffer; had that happen with a chisel (very near miss). These days I wear a face shield at the buffing wheels. Thanks for another inspiring video, Jeremy. John
Thank you for the kind words. Cheers!
Beautiful thing, so nice to watch a beauty like that done by hand. Oh, btw, I'm a DDS, I do know how it is to do delicate things by hand that can be used to do a hard job...Thumb up!!
she sure is an elegant beast.
Awesome Work!
Thanks!
Simple Little Life at the moment i am making my own/first knife. I could send you some pictures when i'm done.
gorgeous
Thanks!
really very impressive
I have watched several of your videos and I am impressed by your skill. I really enjoy the less talk more action approach. I am definitely a subscriber. Keep up the good work sir.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Cheers!
nice, good job
Thanks!
Excellent music choice
Thanks! I never used to like this type of music but it's really starting to grow on me. Cheers!
felicitaciones, hermoso cuchillo.
Thank you very much!
Very good
VERY nice work!! I love the look of this knife. I wish I could do this but I know it takes long hard work and dedication.
Thank you very much!
Very nice knife
Thanks! Great to meet up with you today! Anytime you want to talk drones or see it in person, just let me know! Cheers!
Отличная работа!
спасибо!
Love watching your videos, gonna give knife making a try soon! Been trying to acquire some tools and steel. Have a very small amount of extra cash for this hobby but gonna give it a try, wish me luck
Luck my friend, luck! I think you'll do awesome. Really, knife making on the cheap is where it starts. And maybe where it is at it's purest. If you enjoy the process, and you end up with a sharp object; it was a success. You're going to love it!
great vid! keep it up !!!
thank you very much!
using an older putty knife ones with a wooden handle make cool little blades, trace and cut
Wow. Little scary with that close call. Man that thing turned out amazing. Such simple and clean lines. I love the care you put into this. It really shows in the end product. Great work and great video.
Thank you very much. Yeah, it was a little scary. Just one second of slight lack of attention, and you pay for it. Cheers!
+Simple Little Life I was cleaning a grinding wheel once with a bunch of sharp steel disks that you would place against it. Long story short, the bolt was loose and 25 micro saw blades went flying. Let's just say that's the last time I'll ever doubt the need for safety gear, especially glasses.
Tyler Newcomb oh wow! that's crazy! PPE should always be on:)
parabéns pelo trabalho
Bellissimo bravo
Very Nice, Thanks for sharing with everyone. Top$
Thank you very much!
beauty!
Thanks!
Very cool my friend! I really enjoyed watching the precision and accuracy in which you made that knife, as well as the expert use of the variety of tools. You definitely need to make more of those! By the way that knife definitely needs a leather sheath...maybe time to aquire that skill too? :>) All the best, and keep those vids coming! ...Nathan
Thank you! I agree on the leather sheath though. Anything less just wouldn't fit. I was thinking it's time I give leather another try. I hope I can get better than I've been, because I've always had such trouble with leather in the past. I admire your skills a lot! Cheers!
Hey man, really nice work you do. I'm not sure if you have mentioned in other videos, but I'm interested in your tempering device. Can you give any info on this please.
Sweet
Thanks!
Nice music choice there in the beginning
Thanks again for the knife
Would be good to get your advice on the phantom 4 at some point.
You bet! Yeah, we should figure out a time and get together and I can show it to you. Cheers!
Beautiful!! Does anybody know what was use to buff the wood handle? Thx
What would you recommend as a start point to re-finish a blade to something of a satin matte type finish? This kitchen knife I am working on had the blade snap in half (was a big ol' blade too) and I re-profiled it (didn't keep a point on it, rounded it as it's a slicer now) and am going to have to redo a new handle but the finish is crappy. Eventually I hope to forge blades but until I finish my forge and get a good anvil I'm working in modifying knives, putting new edges on and handles for now.
Hey man I was wondering where you get your exotic woods from thanks
Artwork.
Thank you!
Do one put the blade in the owen after it reached the temperature or can one put it in the Owen and wait for it to reach the temperature and then take it out and cool
Thank you . no worries.
Cool beans
Hey Jeremy, which evenheat do you have- and if you were to purchase one again would you get the same one having used it?
Very nice video (craftsmen )
Thank you very much! I appreciate it. Cheers!
工匠精神！
Thank you very much!
beautiful Handel
Thank you!
Thank you!
i feel petty that i do all of my shaping on a grinding wheel like you used to buff the blade. I only use sandpaper to make the handle smooth lol
awesome man. how did you like making a hidden tang vs a full tang
You did that so fast! Ha! Great video.
hahaha. Doesn't take me a whole day to do a days work:) Thanks. Cheers!
Do you sell your knives?
Yes I do. www.homesteadknives.com for what is available but mostly I'm doing custom orders that never make it to website.
Cheers!
+Simple Little Life awesome I'll visit later today
Do one grind the bevel all the way in to the line you Made before it goes in to the owen or what it is called
