making a keris style dagger build part 1

[@stephenjohnson6841]

I can't even begin to imagine the complexities of grinding that knife! Awesome knife! No worries about the SD card. Things hapoen. Thanks for sharing!

[@Aleeknives]

You are 🙏 welcome!

[@bushwhackingprepper9162]

Subbed within two minutes. For someone just getting into the craft like myself, you are a goldmine. Informative and instructional but entertaining at the same time. Thank you.

[@Aleeknives]

Thank you Dee! Enjoy and feel free to ask questions

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

Ah just think, you'll be doing this on a press soon! 😜. Great video, nice to see the whole process!

[@Aleeknives]

Yeeesssssssss!

[@jedediahsibley3355]

Wish it was straight edge, beautiful handle, big fan!

[@Pitbull1701]

I've nade quite a few knives and getting the grinds on a dagger right is really difficult. I can't imagine a wavy dagger like this being anything but a headache. Great job man.

[@Aleeknives]

It will make my next build seem easy!

[@Pitbull1701]

@@Aleeknives speaking of next, I just emailed you.

Superbad!! 🤜💥🤛 Voted!! 💪🏻

[@andyc750]

superb,. you got my vote, think technically the hardest build of all the entries, the making steel; first ran you close but this for me is the best, plus it looks awesome, something for the likes of me to aspire to building, good one Airin, possibly your nicest piece so far, and have to say I knew who had won before it started, and sod all to do with who built what or how sadly

[@richardbranton2780]

I had you first the sheath and the handle closed the deal. The Alaskan dude had a damn good video and he done a great job also

[@Aleeknives]

Agreed!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Fantastic work. I love it.

[@Aleeknives]

Thank you!

That’s going to be an awesome blade! Lots and lots of patients. Ha ha! I’ve tried to record myself making knives but every time I do the blade never turns out. 🤷🏻‍♂️. Maybe one day I’ll be good enough. Is there much difference in the 1084 and 1095?

[@Aleeknives]

1084 is more forgiving in the heat treating process

[@teguhmulyo6420]

same as "KERIS " came from Indonesia

[@BubuH-cq6km]

😎 👍🏼

[@Aleeknives]

Thank you

[@brysonalden5414]

I'd rather your SD card was full than your grinder motor fail! That grind looked almost impossibly difficult to freehand.

[@Aleeknives]

It was pretty hard but definitely possible

[@charliebowen5071]

It’s not a keris blade... that’s the Asian tradition.. with quillions in the western tradition this is called a flamberge dagger... or flame blade dagger.. they existed... other elements make a keris... this is a flamberge dagger

Sweet! Thanks Charlie
