[FULL BUILD] Making a San Francisco Bowie Knife WITH Metal Sheath

[@martinschroeder8130]

I am almost lost for words!! The knife is absolutely stunning and I'm so impressed with well you are able to explain everything very simply and effectively. Love the knife and the video!

[@aagetreffen]

You are my new favorite knifemaker on youtube. Your work is on par with the dwarfs that make magical weapons.

[@jvbknives]

@@aagetreffen very kind of you, thank you! Maybe there's a dwarf inside my huge body😄🤏

That knife is very beautiful! Bravo my friend!

[@peterparsons7141]

Wow, really fine work. I’ve often thought about the notion that craftsmanship from the past was superior to many fine hand made things today. With modern improvements in metallurgical processing and materials, in the hands of a skilled artist I believe that in the future people will marvel at the fine pieces hand crafted today. Congrats on creating a fine eye popping beauty, that will be appreciated for centuries. . (I really want to have one, but it belongs in a museum of art display rather than me using it to remove the innards from big game animals or cutting steak at the hunt camp supper table).

I think it has something to do with how light reflects off the curved surface

[@AndyFromBeaverton]

Your tool collection eliminates so much work with precision. I was told the only difference between a Bowie and a San Fran Bowie is it's lighter, smaller, and fancier. That's probably not true.

[@jvbknives]

@@AndyFromBeaverton I suppose the San Francisco(name) style is mostly because of the knives that were made by the Will &Finck, and the Michael Price shops. The term took off quite soon as these knives were made in the 1850s!

[@jvbknives]

@@AndyFromBeaverton I must also say you're absolutely correct with the fact that using these old machine tools I can use incredible precision!

[@WAR_OF_ENTROPY]

But that's too much, the most people dont like see the hold work and every little complicated step that you do, they wont to see the finish line product.

[@jvbknives]

I make these videos for my customers and for other knifemakers to see. It's a good learning opportunity for people!

[@Jan-tt2ye]

I Like every tiny step because i want to know how these things are done. Awesome Video!
