    Absolutely love your videos. Not only are you a great teacher, but you also mention other methods and why you choose to do it your way instead. That kind of insight into your own learning process gives me other terms and methods to research to find which way I might prefer doing things before diving in head first. That kind of time and money saving is invaluable. Thank you so much for making these.

      Its a good skill to have in the toolbox. I like the utility. Leather is so pretty though! I feel like the leather is also way more appropriate for knives with wooden handles, etc. Thanks for watching Nick! Have a good one.

    That looks like the Harbor Freight mini mill? I am actually going to be buying a mini mill in the next couple weeks. I haven't read really good things about the mill. Would you suggest spending a little more, or do you think it will work ok for knife making? milling slots for guards, possibly some folder work, etc.?

    • @RedBeardOps
      @RedBeardOps  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That is a harbor freight mini mill. I think it "can" do all of those things, however, you may want something beefier if you're planning on using it a ton. That being said, at slow feed rates, I think it could be a winner for you. The digital readout would be a good addition, I'm thinking about mounting one on mine. "little machine shop" has some good documentation on this machine.

    Beautiful sheath. One thing why did u heated the kydex?

    • @RedBeardOps
      @RedBeardOps  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello! Thanks for your comment and for watching. You heat the kydex so that it will form around your knife. By doing this you create retention. So the knife will "snap" into the sheath.

  • @MG-hx3ym
    @MG-hx3ym 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know the hinges keep the two half’s of the kydex press together, but could you just clamp both sides to keep it closed or do the hinges maintain a certain angle on the backend? I want to make one.

    • @RedBeardOps
      @RedBeardOps  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The hinges don't matter at all. You could just use two plates with foam.

  • @sierraecho884
    @sierraecho884 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nicely done, just one question on a 3 year old video. Why didn´t you made the sheath slimmer and instead of placing the clip to the side, placed it in the middle ?

    • @RedBeardOps
      @RedBeardOps  ปีที่แล้ว

      I think I was looking for a way to attach the clip with the current eyelets. In addition, I think having the clip side by side to the handle makes the whole package thinner. CHeers

      @sierraecho884 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@RedBeardOps This makes sense, thank you for the quick reply. I just recently bought a White River M1 knife and one of those ulti clip slim, so I noticed how it would be better for me personally to not have the clip offset to the side. Of course it is a personal preference.

    OK, I get why are you naming the brands on everything you are using. I appreciate it I do, it is very helpful to follow along and research items as I watch your videos.
    The issue you are going to run into is the laws around sponsorship. You need to be very carefull about dropping names of manufacturers. If any of these companies have ever sent you product for free and you do not mention them as a sponsor you can be fined a boatload of money.
    Whatever the value of that item is I promise you it is not worth it. Even further use of those items in future videos can come with repercussions if you can not prove the termination date of the sponsorship.
    Here is a brief article about it so I hope it helps.. www.theverge.com/2020/2/12/21135183/ftc-influencer-ad-sponsored-tiktok-youtube-instagram-review
