man ignore the haters i like the voice over and i love the sheep's foot design good choice for the blade
Thank you. I appreciate the support
Seriously, I hate the silent ones because I always find myself asking why they did something
I concur I much prefer when people talk so much better then the quiet ones
I like your voice overs, much better than music that doesn't fit.
Great looking knife. The handle makes the whole thing pretty distinct.
Your voice overs are why I watch your channel, for someone with a passing interest in knife making himself, it’s a great educational experience!
I get one hateful comment to every 10 to 15 good comments on my voiceover 😅. Glad you are one of the 15
I'm with the crowd here, man. The knife is great, and we love your voiceover style. I wonder if you're feeling weird about the handle because it's a little long compared to the blade length. I'm no expert, and it's a beautiful piece of art, so I guess all I'm saying is "be encouraged."
Nah, it's just that the handle feels like the handle is made too much for a chopper hold and not for a pinch grip hold. And i did that on purpose for aesthetics, but it feels out of place. I feel i should have gone with a smaller thinner handle. Looks cool anyways tho
Don’t apologize for the camera footage bro! It’s YOUR VIDEO! If people don’t like it they can click on another vid!
My ocd doesnt like it but there isnt much i can do about it. The footage is the footage. I work with what i got. But yea if anyone doesnt like it they can kick rocks. No one is forced to watch anyones content on youtube.
A great damascus pattern paired with a great handle pattern. Really stands out this one does. Nice work.
Thank you
Nahh man?!!! That knife 🔪 came out out of this world that's what the other blades myths have to do when they do canister nice work 👏 👍 👌
Thank you
Don’t listen to other people, keep doing what you’re doing . The knife came out great
Thank you
@@JPsBladeworks do you sell your knives and if so where would I go to buy one
@ToddAMARANDO i have my website in my video discription but unfortunately i dont have any knives available at the moment.
I think it turned out great for a first go. Next time will be so much better. Thank you for your time..
Thank you for watching
JP… another thought… A good practice with Damascus and in particular with the tiles to help get rid of the transition lines is to allow your billet to soak at welding temperature to allow for greater grain growth between the tiles.
I rather enjoy your voiceover. I like knowing why you're doing what you're doing and your thoughts on it. It's one of my favourite things about tour channel honestly.
You know it still surprises me people watch my channel 🙃
very interested in your forge build. PLEASE make a video of it. Yes there are already videos of it available, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like your take on it. Keep the great work coming.
Thanks. Will do
Looking good brother. Pattern came out nice!
Thanks. Im happy with my first mosaic. It was a test run for another real pattern i have ready for tiling.
Love love love the voice 😊
Thank you
Hell yeah. I actually love the voiceover haha. It’s always funny and super relaxed.
I just do it off the top of my head when im done editing my video. As long as i dont mumble my words i send it lol thanks for the support.
Good looking knife JP. I have been following your journey since you started. Nice progression my friend… Keep it going! Remember, the haters have probably NEVER picked up the hammer and have no clue what it takes!!!
Yea most are keyboard warriors that watched every season of forged in fire so they are not experts in the craft.
Love the way everything you show us is not perfect but you make it work! Like the way you teach us tricks like WD-40! Knife came out gorgeous!
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
1st of all I think the knife build was awesome a few things however and again I know it’s easy for me to say since I know nothing about hand making a knife so
1). Who cares if people don’t like your voice over your annunciation is great
2). The handles and patterns on the blade are great
3). So what town in Florida do you have your shop/store
4). Do you make sheaths for your knives
1) I do the voice overs without a script so I just say what comes to mind and sometimes it's a rant but I don't take things to heart. I just do it to make fun of them.
2) thank you
3) I currently work out of my garage.
4) I do not make sheaths. I never took the time to learn.
I'm with douglaswoodard3412 you do amazing work buddy I make knives myself and you do some amazing work keep on trucking 👍
Thank you. Lately it hasnt been as nice as i would like lol you'll see on the next video 🤣 but oh well you live and you learn.
Do you ever cut knurls or scuff the tang to help the epoxy bond stronger? Such a great little knife!
Could you do a Damascus replica w/ blood groove of the USMC K-Bar?
Such an incredible knife!
Keep em coming!!!!
Ive never made a kbar before so not sure. But i do scuff the tang and do small notches before i epoxy the handle in. I just dont record that part.
Have to use that surface grinder attachment more! Mosaic requires flat, clean and all the decarb removed if you want it to look really good.
All those silver colored tile outlines are the decarb.
Yea i slacked on this one.
@@JPsBladeworks Still a cool knife though and you learned a lot!
Oh wow, I see you using surface grinder magnet part you probably purchased from Tyrel another Blacksmith guy
Yea Tyrell is a good bud. He is always willing to help and share knowlege so when i can i like to buy from him
Newer sub.. I like the knives you build, the video edits are cool and fun to watch while I'm spliffin.. I love that handle color, would love to see it on a big bowie with a brass crossgaurd. What up from northern Michigan!!
Ive been meaning to make a bowie for quite sometime. Maybe ill have one in the near future 🤔
I enjoy the voiceovers, especially the parts where you admit you goofed, own it, and make a joke of it. I was laughing so hard the joggers in the park I’m having breakfast at looked at me like I was the crazy one. 🤣
Im pretty easy going. If things dont work out as planned then oh well. You learn something new.
Nice save! Good practice for tiling, but when you end up doing mosaics, as I'm sure you know, you'll want to grind in the profile, not hammer it, as it will distort the pattern horribly.
I saw that its was good to forge it some so the the pattern follows the curves on the blade but definitely not as much as i did. I did it for the sake of research to see if on this particular knife it made any difference.
That knife came out great. Especially for an experimental blade style.
Thanks
I think you did a hell of a job.. for someone that just starting knife making... Amazing!!!
I try my best
On day soon I’m going to send you a picture of a build I want I’ll inform you of the material I want let me know where to send the image I.e your email let me know how much include shipping in your price and we’ll go from there
Depends what it is. I usually reject commissions if it's something I can't fit into my schedule.
That surface grinder would have came in clutch squaring up your starting pieces. Love your ideas with Damascus. Bro you been making leaps in the game. 👍👍 stay safe in this Florida heat
Thank you. That sun feels like its searing the skin. Cant wait for August when the heat gets real good.
if you put the blade in a vingar(or deluted hydrochloric acid) it will take the scale of it while dont dmg the material before grinding.. it saves time and money(grinding belts ive far longer) sry fro the bad english XD greetings from germany
Greeting. The hydrochloric acid does the same but faster and it basically melts the scale away.
Bro I absolutely love the vids. And yes please do a vid on making a forge. I'm getting into this in the near future. So anything you can make video into would be fire.
Thank you. I'll definetly do a video on the forge build. I have many yes's and no no's so far
I love your voice and voice over... don't let anyone tell you to do anything that you don't like or agree with...it's your life and your world..and love the work you do.. keep it up.. always room for improvement and one day you'll be doing Kyle royer quality
Have you seen his work? Man i dont think I'll ever have the patience that man has. Ive seen his work in person and man thats one huge goal to reach. I appreciate the kind words tho
Handle is still easily saveable, the butt pretty much just needs to be smaller everywhere. Not difficult and its beautiful. Im just concerned about whether those delaminations in the steel actually closed up.
They closed up on the majority of the knife. I two tiny ones on the spine but i dont think they are issues so i didnt bother making the knife smaller by trying to grind them out.
That was a great practice run! Can’t wait to see the next one 🔪❤️
That one will be really mosaic. I have the pattern done i was just afraid to tile it wrong so i did this one as a test run.
That's a fine little knife. That handle turned out gorgeous! Would love to see you build a forge. That's something that is kind of limited on TH-cam among all the knife makers I feel like.
Im planning to build a forge with a rolling table so i can set it aside when not in use.
Great job brother I’ve been watching since the beginning and loving everything keep up the great work!!!
Thank you for the support!
I love your voice overs! Another great knife and fun video. Thank you for making these!
Thanks for the continued support
really really nice work. truly a work of art!
If i may, why do you hand -and the higher grits? Do they not make sanding belts that fine?
It's easier to control doing it by hand and gives a better finish. The higher your handsand the less the scratches are visible in the final product once you etch it, so it gives it an overall nicer view.
I think the handle fits the knife very well…! Great looking over all. I’d be happy to have a knife like that. Well done 💪🏼👍🏼
Thank you
I like the voice over. I like hearing each step explained. You also do awesome work.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
#anotherone Love your channel brother!! Keep up the amazing work.
Appreciate it!!
A voice over is a huge help to explaining what’s going on, and how/why decisions go into the work. I personally don’t like when someone just works and doesn’t say anything.
I get bored. Im thinking of starting a channel with no talking for the haters and people who just like asmr. Two birds on stone. But on this channel id rather talk it out. It helps create community as well.
I thought that the tiles were to be rotated before you welded them together. So that the cut sides were facing up. That might have given you a better pattern. 🤷🏻♂️
They were. If not the billet would be backward
I love the knife. Keep the voice over. I would like to see you make a video of you building another forge. ~Kevin
Thanks. I will definitely be making a video of it.
Hope you don’t let the haters get to you. I’m not even a bladesmith but I love the content and I catch every video. Good stuff
Nah haters are like less than 1% of the audience. I just like to rant 🙃 their opinions dont matter to me.
Don't know if I missed it but, did you flip the pieces to tiles them? Looked like you cut then welded the same way.
Yes i flipped them. When i showed them in blue they had just been cut
When i welded they were on the cut face
nah i actually dislike the vids without the voice commentary - keep it coming
I get bored watching them. I like the dynamic of voice over. It keeps me engaged.
You should crossgroove the tang to give greater structural integrity with its bond to the handle. 🤔
I do small notches on the tang i just dont record it. Ive never had an issue.
I k ow nothing about forging..... but I know a good looking knife. Well done from the UK
Thanks from Florida
It's the big hook on the rear of the handle that messes it up, I'd grind it down to a simpler, cleaner shape.
Yea i agree but its done so its going to stay that way or my next video wont be done in time.
Yeah I would make that end of handle tad smaller, I would leave that overall style as its look nice as hell, just make it a bit smaller.
By smaller do you mean skinnier?
Very nice, love the handle material goes perfectly with the blade. 😎
Thanks
Love your videos I really enjoy watching them ignore the assholes
Most dont have a clue what they are talking about. They just want to make others as miserable as they are
fantastic work with the handle, i love how it complements the blade!
Thanks glad you liked it
👍🏼👍🏼 awesome work keep it up man your getting better every project !
Thank you
That is a great looking knife. I would make that my go to kitchen knife.
It's a nice little knife for precision cuts
Very nice build. Would definitely like to see a video on the new forge.
That makes 2 now
Bro u frickin killed it anyone who is in the kitchen would love to cut with that knife a really work of art
Thanks. I appreciate it
Thank you so much for your videos they have helped me so much
Glad i could help
Really liking the voice over. Would love to see a forge build!
Thanks will do
Ive watched over 10 video's in last few days now. All the knives look so nice. U thinking about making other things? Like axes or folding knives or anything else? Greetings from holland
Greetings. I want to make other things but it takes time as i slowly tool up for new things. I just recently upgraded my press so i hope to learn how to make hammers and axes sooner than later. I want to learn to make folding knives as well but that will take some time due to so many moving parts and time investment.
@@JPsBladeworks ah yeah u are right. Slowly upgrade the shop how u like it and we will see😀
Protractor.....!
An angle measuring tool is a protractor 😎
Loving the channel and your work too 👍👍👍
I haven't used one of those since geometry in high school 😅
@@JPsBladeworks Alternatively you could use the Force! Half of a right angle.... And then a smidgen less again 🤣
Nice colour combination..❗🤔👍🏻👌🏻🇿🇦
Thank you
FL in tha house lmao great job man, what part of FL?
Central FL Highlands county
Beautiful handle. It looks really nice.
Thank you
I got a paper cut from watching this video.
Paper is dangerous. You should be very wary around it
Very nice knife! I like your voiceover that way I'm not completely lost at what you're doing!😂
Ill keep them coming
@@JPsBladeworks and I'll keep watching!
Came out really good, I like it, great save on the delams
Thanks im glad it worked out
looks great. i forget what the full process is but you can make the tiling lines disappear through heating the blade multiple times before heat treating. i do try to share some knowledge with you each video, and you can take it or leave it lol.
you advancement continues.
Lol i appreciate the knowledge. The carbon migration is what helps blend those lines in and its done with heating the knife up and having the carbon migrate past the lines. The reason they are white is due to carbon loss when forging since those lines used to be the outside of the billet before being forge welded together.
@@JPsBladeworks i couldnt remember the proper name of it lol. i will check it up to getting older
Really nice looking blade and the handle is awesome.
Thanks 👍
you shoulda used a mechanical connection a pin or two
The epoxy is enough. Its a tiny knife
Personal opinion, but your voice fits you well, keep it in your videos, voice overs make videos feel more enjoyable.
You ever hear your own voice recorded? It always sounds weird but its good to know my voice matches myself
@@JPsBladeworks Seeing videos like yours, inspires me to take up metal working, I love the smell of hot metal, and the sounds of forging, It is and always was one of my passions to learn as I got older, Perhaps one day I shall learn how to forge as you do.
Cool to see experimentation and learning in these videos!
Thanks. Glad you liked it
Videos on your shop would be appreciated.
ill have to clean up first 🤣
Great video and cool knife yet again. Keep it up!
Thanks
very beautiful,probably my favorite so far.
I wonder what do you do with these knives 🤔
I put them in a drawer to never see the light of day again...or until i need a new knife to play with
@@JPsBladeworks interesting 😂
So when you cut the 45 degree tiles.. it looks like you didn’t rotate the pieces to expose the end grain. Also the etch after the initial welding and grinding off the holder steel really doesn’t look like end grain.
I miss spoke. It was 35 degrees. I didnt catch it when i was editing.
@@JPsBladeworksdid you turn the tiles to expose the end grain? In my experience doing a tile with a twist pattern doesn’t pan out like one would think.
Good job man I love your videos
Thank you
Show the forge build! Please????
Will do
Cool knife dude. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching
That pattern is cool man another banger knife
Thank you
Nice knife! You keep getting better and better!
As long as im not getting worse 😅
That is so cool. Great job. Thank you.
Glad you liked it
Over all it is a pretty nice looking knife.
Thank you
I think it looks pretty cool. Keep it up dude
Thanks
Nice work, give me please.. I'm in South Africa
Thats a long ways away
@@JPsBladeworks but it will be worth it, I will take good care of the knife 🙏
Thumbnail looks like a steal wagyu
Lol one day ill make enough so its a piece of real wagyu.
I'd love to see how the forge build is done!
Thanks will do
Don't feel too bad about cracking the ebony, we have all been there. I trashed a $90 ebony block trying to finish a piece for Blade this ear, it happens. The knife looks awesome and I love the choice of hilting materials. They work really well with the damascus pattern!
Thanks. There tend to be sacrifices along the way. Sometimes its a piece of wood. Sometimes its a piece of hot scale on your hand. Sometimes its cutting yourself on your own knife. No one is safe 🤣
Yes show us the forge build....👍
Will do!
Awesome!!! Love the contrast between the blade and the handle. Very cool. Enjoy your Sunday….
Thanks, you too!
Would love to see s forge build. Consider sizing it so you can use sacrificial fire bricks, tiles, swap them out when the flux damages them
Thats how my brother has his. I think its the best way to go
Your voice over helped me learn 😊❤
Glad i could help
Who are you using for belts now?
Im using red label abrasives. But i wouldn't be opposed to a different brand of the product is better
Great work, loving your builds all the way from the UK. If you think your rain is bad, don't come here in the summer.
Wait till the hurricanes start aiming this way. Thats when the fun starts.
I like how the patterns on the wood and metal are similar. Also, I truly appreciate your voice-overs! Well done!
Thank you
I’m not a smith nor do I see a future where I become one. However, I love watching your content. It’s like we get to share a little bit of zen with you. Good work man
thank you im glad you enjoy the content
Yeah I want to buy this knife
It will be available soon
love your vids man keep it up
Thank you for the support
Very nice! Love the handle!
Thank you
A work of art... Beautiful!
Thank you
