I wonder if it should be treated like stacked leather? The hidden tang is relying entirely on the resin. For permanency I think it would work best with a tang-through and a pommel?
As he said the resin soaked all the way into the cork, I imagine it wouldn't have any trouble with de-laminating as it would likely act more like a solid resin block, sorta like micarta or G10
My Dad gave me a knife he made when he was a teen with a stacked leather handle. This has a lot of he same look - I'm going to make a puuko with a cork handle. Very nice!
I have some squares of very dark brown cork that are much thicker that I have been thinking of using in this manner. I thought I might stack it with leather in between.
Very nicely done . Even though you used the finished blank on a knife , l have several other tools in mind. I inherited many old tools from my dad , and am thinking that matching handles on all the files would look good . Dovetail saws will also benefit . Thanks for stimulating some ideas . Stay healthy.
That's an interesting looking block of material. What would look even more interesting is if you cut the stacks at an angle and have 2 halves (scales?) before making it into the knife handle you could then get chevron stripes for example on the handle instead of just plain strips either running along or at 90 degrees to the blade.
That looks great. What might be cooler is if you do it so that instead of being perpendicular to the knife tang the layers are at a slight angle to the tang of the knife.
Belli questi manici. Vorrei sapere se li usi anche per altre tipologie di lame, ad esempio giapponesi da cucina. Inoltre vorrei sapere se con il trattamento con resina quando é asciutto e montato il manico rimane morbido? Grazie
What might be cool to try next, replace the flat calls on the ends with curved cauls. One concave and one convex. This would make curved glue lines /seams
You should make a knife entirely from garbage/scrap and or junk like maybe even a little dumpster diving which would be a really cool way to make knife scales from
Does the cork retain it's texture and sponginess after being coated in the resin? I really like the look with the blue, and if the texture remains the same, I would imagine that the handle would be very comfortable in the hand. Great job!!!
I doubt very much the cork would retain its 'sponginess'. The resin soaking and gluing it all together would be rigid and would make the entire handle feel solid also.
I always see cork used by stacking the small squares, never in the long strips(similar to micarta [sp?]). Is there a reason why? If there was contrasting material, like the stack in this with blue material/cork, in the long strips, would it make a interesting pattern when shaped?
Listen, friend, it seems to me that there is not enough brass top on this knife, it will have a slightly oriental style and will look more assembled in general, you can even make a brass guard, but if to the end, then a curved-shaped wedge, sorry for my English, with love from Russia🇷🇺😉
That material is awesome! I like how it turned out and I want to see what else you'll use it for! The handle shape wasn't that exciting though. I think it would look better with a geometric shape to it instead of round
I will be honest to you so you may take my comments in consideration to enhance the result in the future ... you did a good effort on making the handle material. . Although I didn't like the choice. I know it was more of a test ... also I didn't like the handle profile. .. since you made a successful attempt then try making micarta it's the same method but different materials but it's so much prettier and stronger 😉
Tu mets beaucoup d'énergie à fabriquer de nouveaux assemblages pour tes manches, c'est dommage que ce soit si grossier/classique la finition. Mais belle chaîne en tout cas bravo

I saw " includes paid promotion" in the bottom left and then I looked at the screen and he pointed at IKEA and I thought he was sponsored by IKEA XD
What a sponsor that would be tho
@@S8tan7 very true
lol, i am also a viking fan,This recommendation is much better than a phone game😂

I agree it would be stronger with a tang going all the way through.
I love this channel!❤️
and I
This material looks really nice when it’s finished

Incredible end result dude! Love it. Thank you for donating it to our charity raffle!

DIY stores also sell Cork as floor underlay, it's about 10m2 though, that's a lot of knives!
I like the blue and the red, those brighter colors really stood out against the brown cork. Nice work

That's awesome and has to be extremely comfortable in the hand
My favorite is the black and blue one
Oh, very nice! I love to see creative uses for everyday items. Thank you.
This video is one of best satisfying videos on this channel and i rly enjoy it
A nice video to vibe to in the middle of the night

Цветные бруски, конечно, повеселее выглядят. Удачи в экспериментах.
You’re having fun with the materials. Thank you for sharing your experiments, and I hope you’re having fun!
Be well, and take good care.
Excellent as always but as a challenge I ask can you use the same type of technique to make a longbow?
Nice idea i have try it soon!

cool
Хорошая,идея,интересно посмотреть как ведет себя в воде после склейки
Пробка потому и пробка, что ничего через себя не пропускает и не впитывает
Would this float or is the cork too dense with the resin? I am thinking it may be useful for my dad on his boat.
Gonna go look at Gthic right now.
Respect from Egypt Man
How about using dyes for the cork or using coloured resin?
Hmm, how strong/shock resistant would that be?
Amazing handles!
Have you considered staining the resin to get different colours of this?
Super creative idea. Love it!
Really cool look! Very creative as always!
what is that black material you use as the handle cap? 8:17
Discovered a new favorite channel!
Super cool, man! Great work
That's a badas handle, man!
What Kind of dowel do you use for the Blade ?

Very nice!!! love your work, I subscribed with notifications 2 years ago.
This is very beautiful. I love your workmanship. I hope you are well in this hot mess 2020 has been.

Nice work. Does the and resin work as well for full tang knives as it does for hidden tang. Must say the cork handle gives the blade a unique look. 👍

Good idea i was searching matérial for. Thanks 👍
Te quedó como el color que usaban los faraones egipcios, hermoso.
Estava a ir loco a recuerdar donde jo he visto la combinacion de colores e usted lo dijiste...Bravo (desculpe el mi espanol macaronico...)
Good job and nice knife.
I saw someone do it with cork coasters from Ikea once.
Really awesome idea. I would like one with yellow spacers. That's my favorite color. Do you have a store where you sell your knives?
Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up
Cool result
Looks useful and purdy nice work
Looks great as a katana handle
Wonderful work ❤️ so creative ...
Does it float?
Thanks for the info, going to have to try that. Nice work as always
Great stuff as always

I love the look of the cork and colours. You could do something similar with Burch bark.

Very cool bud. Do you fancy playing with some Damascus blades? If so let me know, i am sure we can do a channel colleraboration on this
damascus made of coins?
Very original, thanks for sharing !😊🇨🇦
Very Cool an interesting process !!!!!!!!!!!!
👍🏾 this handlematerial looks great...thanks for the inspiration... 😍
Genius.

Liked and loved this channel very much.♥️♥️
i have to do something similar but without the resin, i like soft handle, good work man!
Great looking handle material 👍 😊
Como se llama el material.que usas en el.cabo?
Ma il taglio dei peli del braccio?
Smart job broo. Keep creative 👍👍
Looks great :)
¿ Is it comfortable to hold on to ?
Great idea
Super Video
Great idea 💡 as always. Loved the video. 2 👍🏻
Great! 👍 and now I'm curios about the purpose of that single edged knife you applied the handle to 😎 greetings from Germany
Wauw, that looks fantastic! Ima try this for sure!
How is the weight balance, though?
This is so pretty
This is a great idea and looks good to.
just got to find some cork and resin.
yer i think that's doable. cheers mate

I love the dragon
Nice
