love the video mate, i'm wondering what oil you use when quenching your spring steel? and where would be a good place to buy some?
@bigbeynonsblacksmithing466 3 жыл бұрын
Hi there, I'm glad tou liked it! At the time I was using a mix of different oils in one quench tank and they were a tad too harsh for some of the tougher steels. Now I use rye oil which it's much better and can be purchased in different grades. I get mine from www.groundflatstock.com/

I think I might try to make something like this, I have a couple old coil springs laying around. Thank you for your knowledge!
@bigbeynonsblacksmithing466 3 жыл бұрын
You're welcome! Give it a try for sure- coil spring is a great material to practice on.

really good clear advice. i made my first coil spring knife a week or so back and could have done with these tips! I learnt about working with coil spring at too low temperature making a few corkscrews. A few cracks and the set back is huge! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

I'm glad I could help! Coil spring can be a pain and depending on its source, you can run into a whole host of problems but it is a good steel to practice with and, well treated, it can make some perfectly serviceable blades. I think I've only had two ever fail- other than that, all coil spring blades I have ever made have worked brilliantly and have been good, durable knives.

Thanks Tom! Takes me back to the bushcraft show! If you are after any other suggestions, I would love to see the process of making a chef's knife. I was going to book an experience day with you last year to make one but that will have to wait until we can actually see people!

Hi Again mate , Hope you are both still good ! One question , I noticed that the ring is tapperd and not as thick as the handle. Were they all like this or have any been found / documented without the tapper ?
@bigbeynonsblacksmithing466 3 жыл бұрын
There is quite a bit of variety amongst them, some seem tapered while others are the same thickness. Some are punched and there are others which are forged and then welded back up! I'll find you the database that has the vast majority of them on record.
