    The wax process will work a lot better if you don’t bitch the sides of the tang until just before final glue up. Leave the tang smooth during the 1st glue up with paste wax and it will slide right out for ya. Love your videos and I’ve learned so much from them. Keep up the great work Brother!!

    @vikmoj2426 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    About the radius at 3:25: It actually IS a thing! There are two different problems you have to face, static stress and fatigue stress. It's relatively easy to prevent the first one (you can't bend the steel bar with your bare hand), but if there is a sharp angle, that's the place where material is stressed the most and where will eventually a fatigue fracture iniciate. Any kind of radius can relax this at least a little bit. This should be definitely your concern if your knife is made of thin steel. If you overdo the radius (kinda enter the bar), trust me or not, it's even safer in terms of fatigue (of course this will worsen the static toughness). Fatigue fracture can be seen with cheap kitchen knife, where they spare money on every part that isn't visible.
    Radius designed for preventing a fatigue is a thing in shaft design and some are ostensibly weakening the part, but in the end, fatigue is what really matters.
    Summarized, it's even safer to make a hole in the corner with a drill than keeping a sharp angle.
    Anyway sorry for my english

    Just subscribed to your channel and was looking for a follow up to your inexpensive anvil purchase from a couple years back. I think I saw the same anvil on vids as late as 4 months ago, that anvil seems to be holding up. If there is a follow up vid, I've missed it. I just purchased the 137lb version and am hoping that it holds up. Regarding today's vid, nice little pairing knife. Looks great!

      Thank you for subscribing! I really appreciate that. I haven’t done a follow up video but the anvil is holding up well. Having said that I probably only use it once a month or so. But I’ve had a few really good 5-6 hour sessions on it and even some do those with my kids learning (which isn’t always the greatest for equipment 😆) so I’m fairly hoot with how it’s doing. I hope you find yours to last well too. Cheers👍

      @@Simplelittlelife Thank you, sir. I've watched a ton of your vids and for whatever reason, didnt subscribe yet....but that's rectified. I think once or twice a month would be all the use my anvil will see as well. I'm certainly no pro so I would consider it to be 'light usage'. But for the price, I couldnt resist and started looking for review vids and saw yours. Thanks a lot!! Looking forward to skimming through whatever of your vids I may have missed!

    I’ve started considering what size small wheels I have to consider my design of my knives. Large wheels too. Just makes it easier when I have a tool for a specific radius.

    Hi Mate, I don't know if you're still checking comments on old videos. The wood is Afrormosia. Excellent work by the way!

      Oh yes!!! That is exactly it!! Thank you so much! Just last week I was working with it and wondering still what it was. As soon as I saw the word I remembered that was what was written on the side of the block. Thank you so much for taking the time. I really do appreciate it. I'm going to screenshot this and write it down. Thanks again!🙏👍

    Wax only works realy well if the tang is more or less smooth, the grooves/notches in your tang make nice pockets for the epoxy to harden in and make it hard or impossible to take out without any damage to the handle. One way would be to make the grooves/notches after you glued the Handle. Or... you could just do it like you have always done it, seemed to work just fine for you. Loved this vid!

    Really love your videos! What sort of math do you do to balance the blade to the handle? Or is it mostly by feel?

    What angles were your primary and secondary bevels? I'm working on my first hidden tang kirisuke.
    Also, I like your method of fitting the handle sections together. I've been fighting that for a long time now. Even when I roughed up the mating surfaces before applying the epoxy, they would come apart during even gentle handling. 😟 The knife turned beautiful by the way.

      OH I see. I know even when turning a part on a lathe if you can leave a radius instead of a hard 90 you significantly increase the strength of the part 👍

      Yes if you're smashing the blade into metal canisters and pig carcasses; this is a simple paring knife to cut tomatoes. I doubt it would break but regardless it doesn't hurt to round the corners...

    Hey, I am a beginner knife maker and I have been watching your videos for a while... I am looking to get a legit belt grinder that will be more effective for shaping and beveling my knives. However, I do not have the space, and can't afford a large 2 x 72 belt grinder. So, I was wondering if you or anybody else had any suggestions as to what would be an effective yet affordable grinder that I could purchase. Thanks!
    Ps.: I have been inspired a lot by your content, and I am really grateful for that. Love your videos, keep up the great work!
