We go through the whole process from start to finish starting with a bar of AEB-L stainless steel, profiling the
knife, heat treating and grinding the blade then making and installing the bolsters and handles.

Thanks for watching everyone. Please leave a comment or if you have any questions. I appreciate it!
Brave man to fold foil barehanded. LOL!
It has got me a few times. 😂
Tony got them man hands don't need gloves!😂
@DeweyBlanton-ku7db 😁😁😁
Thank you for sharing Sir. Gives us beginners a level to achieve. Beautiful blade.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching! 😁
Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa.... Real good looking knife that! Well done.
As a bladesmith myself, I have never used any stainless. I just fell in love with carbon steels. Been collecting knives for 30+ years but bought my very 1st blade in AEB-L recently (folder) but will be a project knife and probably end up being a workshop knife.
I will definitely be on the lookout for more of your videos. I love making and watching anything knife related.
Take care and see you in the next one.
Thank you my friend. I’ve used just about every stainless out there over the past 35 years. I loved ATS-34 and now it’s extremely hard to find. I settled on AEB-L several years ago because I found it to be a good all around middle of the road stainless steel. It’s a hidden gem in my opinion. I also like CPM 154. I primarily make forged high carbon blades and Damascus steel but I also continue to make stainless blades. Thanks for watching! 🙂
@@TonySeverioKnives you will most definitely see more of me in the future.
@mariusbarnardo5592 thank you I appreciate it! 🙂
Beautiful knife. Thank you for taking us along.
Thank you my friend 🙂
Man... even your stock removal stuff looks amazing
Thanks! It’s all stock removal at some point. 😁
@@TonySeverioKnives well… sure lol! I just started - I’ve made two. I started w a longer Bowie / Seax out of an old leaf spring that fought kicked twisted warped and did everything it could think of to stay a leaf spring, and then I did a rr spike that was an absolute joy and just wanted to be a knife. I learned a ton from watching you. I’m eagerly awaiting my forge which was ordered and I ordered some 1095 to make some gifts with!
@hunt_trap_fish awesome! Stay with it my friend and thanks for watching! 🙂
@@TonySeverioKnives you got it!
Excellent! I just did a dovetail bolster on a knife that has a profile almost exactly like that. I like that press for the pins! And I like your use of CA Glue.
Thanks! They look great on blades but you don’t see a lot now days. I’ve made these for 30 plus years and people still love them.
@@TonySeverioKnives Agree, I did 22.5 degree on mine. I love your no-nonsense videos, straight to the point. Thanks for sharing! Subscribed. Hey what blades do you like on your Milwaukee bandsaw, looks like the Swag table, but maybe your own custom?
@GlennLaguna Thanks! These are Lenox blades. Yeah I built this table long before they came out with Swag. 🙂
Very clean piece of art master.Great job.Hat down.
Thank you sir! 🙂
Excellent video my friend. You show all the steps involved with making a hand crafted knife. Hopefully this will enlighten some folks who question the cost of such a skillfully crafted tool. Great work and information as always. Good job boss.
Thank you sir! I tried to cover most everything but you know that’s hard to do in a 12 minute video. I appreciate the support and thanks for watching my videos 🙂🙂
That Sir, is a gorgeous blade!!
Thank you my friend 🙂
@@TonySeverioKnives Absolutely!!
Beautiful job Mr Tony! I love how those pins absolutely disappear in the bolsters
Thank you my friend. Yes as long as you use the same steel for the pins as the bolsters, you can’t see them. 🙂
Hi 👋 there Tony?!! Hmm I think it's a gorgeous 😍 piece of work nice job.
Thank you my friend! 🙂🙂
Loved every minute of it. Great work!
Thanks!!! 🙂
Hello Tony,
really nice tutorial, really nice craftmanship and really nice knife at the end of the day!
I discovered your channel only recently, but I like your videos very much and will most definitely watch more.
Thanks a lot for the info/education on knifemaking and have a nice day!

Thank you my friend I appreciate the kind words and thanks for watching! 🙂
Hello Tony. Mostly i use N690, but I think I will give AEB-L a try. I like the design of your skinner. Thank you for sharing.😃
Thank you my friend. It’s just a personal preference for me. I’ve used just about all of them. Most of them are about the same but I find AEB-L just a good all around steel. I really like using it. 🙂
Beautiful knife with nice detail 😄😄
Thanks!
Awesome video Tony! Thanks for sharing, and God bless you! 💯🙏🏻😎👍🏻🔥
Thank you sir! 🙂
That's a good looking knife..
Thank you!
Fantastic video as always sir!😁

That’s a really nice looking knife. I want one 😉
Thank you my friend. 🙂
Beautiful Knife!!
Thank you my friend 🙂
Super Video!!!
Thank you my friend!
Ein wunderschönes Messer und sehr gute Verarbeitung 👍👍👍😃
Thank you, I appreciate it! 🙂🙂
8:41 this press is slick. Do you show this in more detail in another video?
Thanks. This video may have a little more detail. th-cam.com/video/Lx01ukYK1YA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0Pl5UPd65JDCMRrD
@@TonySeverioKnives do a Short Video showing it in detail
Love the video my friend that turned out awesome as always. Im about to get me an oven so I can do some stainless. Any advice on a good brand to get? Thanks
Thanks brother. I hear that Paragon is the way to go but the new Hot Shot ovens are very nice and cheaper. I built mine years ago so I have no experience with either of those.
Sir beautiful work what price do you have on this knife
@johnthacker5171 thanks! It depends on handle material. This knife was ordered almost two years ago. They can range from 450 and up depending on the handle material. However I’m not taking orders at this time. When I do I will announce on my website. Same name dot com. Thanks!
Very nice knife what would be the price if you ever sold one like the one in ur video
Thanks Eric. I’m not taking orders at this time. I only price a knife when I take an order or post it to sell. This knife was ordered two years ago. Thanks!
I saw you used the new Norton RazorStar, How did they hold up? Did you like it? Do you think there're worth the price?
No that was VSM my friend.
any tips on not supergluing my fingers to each other or my work table?
Smaller amounts and keep the acetone handy 🙂
👍
Thanks!!
Hey Mr. Severio! How are you doing sir?
Doing great, thanks you!
Where can I buy one of those tapered reamers?
Jantz knife supply has them.
Zaebees
Have you tried 14C28N?
