Thank you for a great informative video. 😊

Why not make knives anymor

great work mate .. very enjoyable to watch ... I just have a question .. wouldn't it be easier or faster or cheaper or all three of them at once if the the first cuts were made using a CNC plasma .. is it because of the heat it generates that may affect the metalergic properties of the material .. is it because of it's messier .. i genuinely want to learn about why you chosen cnc mill first .. thanx ..

Great video, thank your for this. The link to the two brick forge instructions does not work any more. How did you cut the hole? Is there another link to recommend? Thank you.

Great instructions! 👍🏻

Just wanted to say thanks to Gough Customs for this video. This video is what made me believe making knives in my garage was possible. I started with a filing jig like the one used here. Fast forward 10 years, I own a forge, a 2x72, and sold a knife last year for $1200... but it all started here! And for that I say... THANK YOU!!!

Wszystko pięknie tylko jak ostrzyc hartowany nóż pilnikiem ? Pilnik się ślizga.

My kids were asking about making knives tonight and we watched this video and your infantryman knife video. They were fascinated! My 9 year old has requested that you make her a small sword...

Great video thank you!

I like this ❤

like your fixturing, good machine usage, go small parts- areospace

good working ✅✅✅

Dear sir, I own a couple of files which have the name " FIRM " and a logo of a light house or something like that and a date 1857. Can you please let me know the manufacturer of these files. Thank you.

Hey Aaron, this is an excellent video on kydex sheath making. I'm looking for materials and tools to make some better suited sheaths for some of my knives and an arbor press for setting the rivets looks like a very useful tool. I located the brand of press you have in this video, but they're currently unavailable. After looking at a variety of presses on Amazon and other sites, I'm really not sure which is a good choice and want to make sure I can attach the needed dies. Any suggestions? Also . . . . can you offer some advice locating the proper dies for the rivets? Hope this isn't asking too much. You do great work!

Nice vid. Cheers. That was probably the last phone book you ever had. Now you have to hunt around for soft paper to test sharpness. Ah the good old days.

Good general info!!! Thanks!!!

Tyvm for this explanation of the different types of files. It was simple and easy to understand. I learned a whole lot of things between the different single and double cut files and for the wire brush technique to clean out the stuck pieces of metal.

8 years later and still a great video. I was looking for some example of coatings for a gun project. As a former knifemaker I can say that I am truly impressed by your work. Great job and video, thanks for sharing your knowledge, Ken

Best sharpening video I've come across. Cheers

will this only work for not hardened steel ?

Knife Angle Calculation (Android App.)

Hi can you please share price of this knife i am interested in buying

What size drill bit please ? Amazing video thanks

Thank you 🙏

Easily the best video on this subject 🎉

Nice

What impressed me most is the geometry of the blades. They appear to not be built like tanks but actually built to cut yet most did impressively well.

How many rubles did comrade Trudeau pay you to leave Australia?! An outrage, that commie stole you from our shores!

Excellent advice, thank you.

Just came back and watched this because it was the tutorial that helped me make my first knife

Wow very impressive video. I was able to watch the whole thing with my ADD, very informative.

Dude thank you

*The best blade coating is no coating. Polished steel holds up best with a little maintenance.*

Which series of ceracote did you use?

950 Dicki Fort

What sanding block is this? Looks nice.

Great video

Excellent tutorial. Excellent workmanship!

Why is KZbin recommending this gem of a video 11 years later? Thank you for the upload!

All I want to know is: what in the world is a phone book?

Stories like yours are very much the exception. YT is especially bad about showing ventures that magically work the first time. It's contributed to the misguided thinking that success is guaranteed, and that you'll be making big bucks right away. Reality often has other plans, yet we very rarely hear about it. Thank you for the honesty.

really nice work. You make it look easy. Question: Is the material on top of the griddle a piece of molding foam?

damn years later in a world surrounded by supersteels with mediocre heat treats, did you say that was the edge retention you're getting from A2? That's really impressive.

Aaron, I have a couple questions if you don't mind. 1. What is vacuum hardening and the cost? I use only Pops 8670 steel now because I don't have to normalize it. Would I benefit by using a service to do this hardening? I harden using propane and firebricks and quench in Parks 50. I've really no idea what Rockwell hardness I'm getting but I can get the knife sharp enough to shave arm hair..lol. 2. What grit sandpaper do you use for your satin finish? Thanks, Glen

I gained a whole new appreciation for how you design and make your knives by watching this video several times. You are really good with the CAD drawing and also with the milling and finishing processes. I like the little knife a lot...very Kool !! I may try those stones....I do a lot of hand sanding so if they help that's great. Thank you Aaron...great video.

Aaron, this is Glen from Texas, but i was born and lived in Toronto until i was 30 then moved to Texas. I see you are from Canada also...where are you? Your videos are very good so i subscribed.

i want to thankyou. You were right in your advice about why i was having problems grinding the second bevels. I switched to a fresh new 40 grit belt and both grinds turned out great. It was faster and easier grinding also and grind lines stayed in alignment too. I hadnt changed belts because i only had the one zirconia belt but i changed to a fresh aluminum oxide this time and what a difference. Again...thanks. Glen

i really like all your equipment and machines. Your shop is so nice and clean...great work environment. Knife looks terrific. Noticed you air cooled instead of oil quench to harden. What kind of steel are you using ?

Great video!!

Good tutorial on satin finishing.
