Making a Knife from Old Rusty Hand Saw

[@djpenton779]

Nice. I have several woodworking tools I want to make of an old saw blade and this gives me some good tips.

[@Take_And_Make]

Glad I could help!

[@philthehexagon2989]

Well done! Love the editing!

[@ЕвгенияКудинова-ч3с]

I like the wood you used for the handle! Looks beautiful!

[@Take_And_Make]

Thank you so much!

[@Ieuan775]

I've always thought about doing something like this thanks for showing its possible

[@Take_And_Make]

You welcome!
You’ll have fun making one!

[@Ieuan775]

@@Take_And_Make thanks bro

Good video. 🇨🇦😊👍🏼

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks 👍

I recently started making simple kitchen knives out of saw blades. I haven’t used them enough to know if they hold an edge. Do you know if the whole blade is hardened?

[@Take_And_Make]

That would depend on the saw I guess, try to find old ones, those will be most likely hardened all the way

[@tressaccount9183]

How about the edge retention on this material?

[@christopherallen3749]

Would this work for a larger kitchen knife?
Like to make a Chinese style flat edge vegetable knife?

[@Take_And_Make]

It depends what kind of saw you have, if I would use this one Chinese cleaver would be to flimsy. Big hand saw like the one to fall trees would work sure, or look for saw blade big enough

[@kuyareybikolanongmindoreño]

Good idea.👍

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks 👍

[@TheChubbyJB]

Awesome idea I’ve got about a dozen old handsaw’s laying around that would make a great material! Love the videos keep them coming!

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks man! Yeah give it a go! Good starting for knifemaking too!

[@coadycamcoad7352]

I just picked up a heap of old saws. I look forward to giving this a go. Thanks for the video. What’s the longest blade you would do with this?

[@mrpoore1970]

Awesome Job!!!!

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks, Bobby!

[@lostbuffalo196]

Very well done.. I've been thinking of doing this with a "Skill Saw" blade and wasn't sure how I could soften the handle area to drill the holes. Also I wondered if it would sharpen well. You've answered both of these questions. THANK YOU.

[@Take_And_Make]

Thank you for your comment, I'm glad that I could help!

[@dipayotito6998]

No heat treatment?

[@Sean-vs3se]

Nice handle

[@Take_And_Make]

[@binjimmyly3423]

Awesome video and well edited, I subscribed for more!

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks, buddy!

[@hilkka-kaarinaainasto1759]

Millä voitelet kädensijan?

[@hilkka-kaarinaainasto1759]

Hyvä. 👍

[@totaljudy]

Is the glue necessary?

[@Take_And_Make]

No, but then you need to pean your pins with a hammer

[@lorenzoquintana90]

Sorry for asking but why heating the handle area?

[@Take_And_Make]

I brought it to critical temp to soften the metal so I could drill holes easier.

[@КошмарКошмар-й2б]

Самый быстрый и четкий нож 👍👍👍 респект ✌🏻🇷🇺

[@Take_And_Make]

Спасибо, бро!

[@vanyatab4377]

i love you :)

[@Take_And_Make]

I love you too, my boy!

[@Sithikus]

Don't cut paper.. a butter knife will cut paper if sharpened. Thin slice a tomato

[@1romancatholic]

Easier to buy 😥

[@Take_And_Make]

That is correct, yes. The point of this video, however, is to show people how to do it yourself. Hope it makes more sense now.
