This was on of the best, most humble, tutorials on modding a knife that I have ever seen. You are a man among men, in my opinion! Keep the videos coming...
Love your patina technique!!!!
You are a darn good teacher and what's more is, you're very personable and down to earth(got an arrogant or pretentious bone in your body). Thank you and good luck!!! Cory
Thank you Cory! Appreciate the kind words!
Very nice of you

Thank you Rose! So glad you enjoy them!
Used to do artwork on pencil, then with a magnifying lens sit in the sun as a kid and burn the design into the wood. Also helps with fire craft and learning to start fires with no matches or lighter😆

great stuff ! i coffee stained my blade, i'd read it doesn't last as long as the acids in the mustards etc, but mine has... and i'm very happy with it ! it's had some use, some cleaning and a lil coconut oil light greasing.... still looks good.
Thank you so much Cornelius, really love your videos, nice ideas to make nicer Opinels... I will do something with mine :D

I am so glad I subscribed.
I’m glad you did too!
Appreciated sharing, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful work
Thank you very much!
Thinking of purchasing an Opinel #8 and #9, and these kind of mods are right up my alley since I love modding and crafting stuff. Another couple of really cool options you can do on these, is inlayed patterns on the handles using crushed Turquoise and the thin CA glue to set it with, or thermally transferred images like woodland or farm / hunting scenes.....simply make a photocopy on a printer to the size you want that fits the handle, flip it toner side down, tape it at the edges to secure against movement, then using your wood burning shader tip, turn up to pretty warm but not so hot it burns the paper upon touching it, and just shade over the toner to heat it up and transfer the image to the wood, light sand and poly, DONE and it looks fantastic. Great job, you earned a new sub brother !
Fantastic advice! Thank you so much, Darrell! I look forward to seeing you around!
@@CorneliusCreationswell Matt, here it is one year later and I’ve only just this week ordered an Opinel #8 to play around with. If interested in how mine turns out , what’s an email I can send a few pics to ?
This is awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent video thank you...I have a heap of the Opinel knives and been thinking of doing the handles with a bit of class and surprising enough the wood burning unit you use I thought would have to come from overseas but bugger me there is a place here in Auckland NZ just down the road from my work that sells that brand....gonna have to get one for sure ...😄😄
hit it with some fine steel wool and put a high sheen on it look pretty good too ....looks nice love the Bettina trick man thanks
Good idea! Thanks man!
Nice work, really like how the blade came out.
Thank you man!
Cornelius Creations I made a video with my boys and the mustard, adding rain drops to a Opinel. I gave you credit for the project idea on the video.
Just watched it man! That is awesome! I subbed too!
Cornelius Creations Awsome! Thanks a lot.
Top video, excellent, I'm going to try this on my old opinels, thanks for sharing.
Really cool video. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great vid, it was so interesting I didn’t even realize it was 20 minuets long. Lol😃
Awesome haha! I keep things moving fast to keep attention
same!
Very good job 👍🏻☺️
Oh my word you are so creative !!! I really love how these knives turned out thank you so much for sharing these fab videos with us
Thank you! I appreciate it!
This was a very educational video. You are very well spoken and explain things in detail. I just subscribed. What other kind of videos do you make ?
Thank you, Steven! Woodcarving & creative laser engraving projects
Спасибо за видео, посмотрел с интересом
Youre awesome man!
Thank you, you too!
Another great video. Just taken delivery of my dremmel after watching your intro to rotary wood carving video. The knife project looks a great one to start with. Did you outline the bubbles at all or was that effect purely from the mustard mix?
WOW !! Good job 😀
Thank you!
Nice job👍👍
Thank you!
c est une bonne idee!!!!
Круто спасибо большое вам
Wow good Job, very beautiful👍🏻
Thank you!
Hello! as I have said before thank you for the video and inspiration. I am mostly done with personalizing my first opinel knife and I was just curious about the sheath and how you harden/bake it. (Like how you keep its rounded shape, How you restring it, What strings you use to restring it, What part during the hardening you can burn designs into the leather). Maybe if it isn't too much to ask you could do a mini video about how you personalized the sheath. Thank you so much again!
I will add that to my list. The leather is about 6oz veg tan. Meaning it’s pretty hard and it doesn’t loose shape. The leather you have in mind is about 1-2oz. That is real flimsy in thin. I will do some leather work videos soon :)
always learn something
Yep!
Thanks I will use this patina and I like those finger holds too and wood burning. I only have a soldering iron.... also can you wrap the whole blade in vinegar after that patina to protect the whole thing
Right on man!
Just subbed!
Awesome man thank you!
Your video is great
Thank you sir!
Good video
Thank you!!
Does the patina method work with opinel inox knives?
I'm working on dressing up my every day carry and I was wondering on the patina,
How well will the patina hold up with use?
Also how does it affect the patina if you leave the compound on the metal longer like say for an hour?
What about 12 hours?
Will that make the patina hold up better with everyday use?
is the opinel a folding knife and where can they be purchased are they carving knives?
Can u enhance in the same way the stainless steel blade ?
How much do you sell this type of modified knife for? I love the videos and have recently started wood carving. Your videos have been a great guide for starting out!
Amazing work...may i ask you how to remove spots on the blade if i wanted to ????? Is there any way ???
That will be hard to do! Light sanding with 1500+ grit sandpaper
You're like the Bob Ross of rotary tools.
Hahahahaha. Thank you man!
patina only works with carbon, if you have the stainless it will not work
Ahh thanks, just wanted to do it but i sadly have the INOX Version. The Carbon Version is better to sharpen isnt it?
Good to know, thanks
@@Trichromasie carbon steel is easier to sharpen and in some ways stays sharper... amongst a bit more abuse. In my opinion carbon steel is just better save for the fact it COULD rust... however if you patina the knife the right way rust will be of very little concern. Get another opinel, they are cheap enough :)
Does it work for inox blades?
Is anything possible for inox blades?
great video, i wondered if its possible to do patina letters? like a name?
With a little work I am sure it is possible
Subscribed and loved the vid. Was that blade carbon or stainless steel?
Hey Tim! Glad you liked it bro! That is carbon.
That's cool. I guess the mustard is because the oil emulsion thickens your concoction, but why do we use a mix of acetic acid AND citric acid?
Excellent video but I am curious why you just don't take the knife apart first. You can take it apart and put it back together in less than five minutes. I realize taping up the handle can be useful but there are better ways of clamping the handle.
Great Tutorial, thanks a lot.
What I would like to do is etch my thumbprint on the blade. Do you think it will work if I press my thumb on the blade (after cleaning it first) and then cover that area with the mustard mix?
I'm hoping that the mustard won't stain the blade where the grease from my thumbprint it, but as I've never done this before I'm not sure if it works or not..
Hmm... That is very creative but i’m not sure if it will take a full thumbprint. It would definitely be something to try just to see what happens!
@@CorneliusCreations I know, my thumb is certainly bigger than a opinel blade. I was just wondering if the grease from my fingers would be enough to stop the etching fluid, while still etching between the ridges. We'll have to try I suppose! Thanks for your reply anyway.
Great video, have you ever tried linseed oil?
Yes I have but I don't like the natural color of the beech.
I'm noticing an accent.
New York/New Jersey????
I'm just playin. Awesome vid,new sub. I just ordered an Opinel 9. Let me get used to the knife, then I'll PIMP IT OUT. Thanx for sharing knowledge, creativity and talent.
Haha! A little more South than that! Glad you enjoyed the video bro
Is it possible to get the same result with an inox blade?
To take out the blade is very easy....
Does the blade necessary needs to be carbonated?
Top😎👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi, I wanted to ask you with what substances you make the stains on the blade?
Hey there! Vinegar, mustard, lemon juice
How long should it take?
Does the patina effect work on stainless steel as well?😁
I think it can only be done with a non stainless carbon Steel,
As a partina is actually putting a pattern by staining the steel.
if you did this on a kitchen knife would you have to coat the blade afterwards? to cut food safely?
A lot of kitchen knives are made of Stainless instead of High Carbon so this won't particularly work that well with any kitchen knife. A lot of people use a patina like this for their outdoor knives to protect it against rust and such.
Hey bro. Will you please do an Antonini Old Bear mod ? Nice work by the way.
I will add that to my list!
@@CorneliusCreations Thank you so much
Класс 👍
Thank you!
