Handmade: Tanto with a Hamon | Knife Making [CC]

Added closed captions that help explain the process.
Really happy with how this tanto turned out. The hamon looks incredible and I am very pleased with the handle material combo. Had a bit of a tough time filming all of this but overall I'm happy with the result.
This is my first full build video, so leave your suggestion of what you would like to see in future videos in the comments.

If only we could click a real life x8 button when hand sanding! I've admired your work on Pinterest for quite a while now, and I must admit, your profiles and finishes have inspired most of my work! Keep up the good work and if you persist with your videos, I'm sure you'll inspire many other keen knife makers starting out. Great work!

More like x30 😁 Always cool to hear that people not only enjoy my work but get some inspiration out of it. Thank you for your kind words.

Dope AF results, @HelixKnives! Now it needs an equally dope sheath/scabbard to complete the package!

[@HelixKnives]

Thanks, I did make a make a sheath for this one as well but didn't film it.

I’d like this style blade and look…just about 2inches bigger because I’m huge so it would fit in my hands…I’m special order one Lix!

[@shakaz6641]

You need an angle grinder....awesome end result

[@HelixKnives]

A bandsaw would be ideal. Thanks.

Hello, Helix, please tell me what kind of paste you applied to the blade at 11:29 a.m. and what is it for? And in general, please write the name of what you use when creating knives, you will greatly help others to comprehend the magnificent world of knife making

[@HelixKnives]

It's turtle wax scratch remover. It polishes the hamon.

[@PourMeAnother]

Wow, you've got some amazing grinder skills. Beautiful blade! What was the paste that you used to polish the hamon? New subscriber, Keep up the amazing work!!!

[@HelixKnives]

Thanks, I used turtle wax scratch remover.

This is the less tanto looking knife you could ever make next time make an axe and call it kitchen knife

[@HelixKnives]

You attempt at making a trolling comment on a random KZbin video is too weak. Please try again.
