Making a Knife from an old Saw Blade

[@mdavis717]

First person I’ve seen put a saw blade into the forge. Most blades are already forged and do not require the forging and annealing process. Beautiful knife in the end!

[@edwardknives8692]

Thank 😊

[@sudipta1034]

Do you sell such knives?

[@LanxPenzenpepper]

Don't steel weaken when cut or damaged? Something to do about stress or fatigue or something? Maybe that's why... Or is that just for aluminum?...

[@johnhoward3271]

I think the main thing I like about Your knives is they're not museum pieces , or , safe Queens ! I've never seen anything You've made on KZbin that I wouldn't be proud to own ,or , be afraid to actually use for it's intended purpose ! You are a talented Craftsman ( far & Few in between these days ... that thinks Their crap doesn't stink ) !

Beautiful work. I personally don't like finger grooves on handles, but if it's custom made for your hand then I guess they make sense

[@edwardknives8692]

[@Micro-Moo]

Those finger grooves is one of the biggest and most elementary misconceptions in knife design. Then really make it totally inconvenient.

Not crazy bout finger grooves. But the knife is beautiful. I love saw blade knives.. the just heat treat so easy.. they get super hard but you can still fix a warp before tempering . And you got the best drill bits in the world

[@Drunken_Frog_40000]

This is the first one who used actually good saw blade and not the junk with welded teeth like a lot of others so called 'knifemakers'. This could be actually good knife with solid edge retention. The heat treatment looks too high temperature but camera and display can lie, I miss only some test of blade after hardening like chopping bones etc.

[@joeconner8702]

My thoughts exactly. I use these old style blades all the time. I strongly suggest annealing them right after cutting them out or drilling can be extremely difficult also makes it easier to grind.

[@bijoykoodalsnehadhara9838]

Can I buy one?

Prior to quenching, would you normalize a blade cut from a circular saw blade? Assuming it is some form of tool steel other then that I don't know it's composition? Thanks.

[@stevethomas7463]

The saw blade was cool. You dont see a alot of those anymore.

[@charliebowen5071]

I’ve been making knives for 16 years and I learned quickly that unless you are the particular hand those notches were designed for these four fingers grooves are super uncomfortable.. fine if you have measurements but we almost never do

[@Micro-Moo]

This is absolutely true. Finger grooves is one of knife design's biggest and most obvious mistakes. They make a knife nearly unusable. Measurements? No, they don't save it. This is not how the human body works. We all need to change the position of our bodies from time to time, the position of our fingers, and so on.

[@川崎孝俊]

From Japan. Thank you for the many informative videos! Let me ask you a question. How thick saw blade? I have a many 2mm old saw blade and would like to see it made in . Is it too thin?

[@dudemakesstuff]

I'd like to ask a question: I'm trying to make a knife from a sawblade too, but the steel is just too tough to be ground, how could you grind so much material? I tried to anneal the steel with the gas forge but the change was minor. Do you have any advice? Thanks for the video!

[@bondarkenergy]

Normalize it a number of times

[@bondarkenergy]

Also, why not forge it?

[@dudemakesstuff]

@@bondarkenergy I did it with the gas forge (not controlled temperature) a few times. Then I left it in the fireplace with hot coal for a day and a night until it cooled down slowly: still a minor change, the grinding belts have worn a lot without grinding too much. 😓

[@dudemakesstuff]

@@bondarkenergy I can't forge it because it's too thin. I probably could have tried to hammer it just to see if it would change its structure, that's right! Thanks for your answers!

[@JoeEcho1429]

The saw blades I have the metal is so hard that drilling holes for the pins aren't easy. I'm new to knife making any help is appreciated.

[@thomasnobel]

Hi. Thats because the sawblades are hardened. first you have to temper the steel. get it hot to forging temperature and then let it cool down very slowly, in your forge, in sand, in vermiculite or in a kiln if you have one. that process makes the steel soft again and drilling holes is a lot easier after that. cheers
