Here's a few little tricks that I like to use when bedding a knife tang, and then a little extra footage of me finishing out this western gyuto. Hopefully this helps or you find some of it useful!

Really nice video and a wonderful knife, congratulations! Can you make a video about fitting a guard/bolster on a hidden tang knife?

I love the way your knife looks !! I have a question : what is the brand of the blueing chemical you use for your brass ? that bronze color looks amazing

That's a very nice knife. Before final glue-up, do you take any steps to remove the wax left behind in the handle from the bedding step? I have concerns about that left behind wax inhibiting the bond between the epoxy and tang in the final glue-up. Nobody seems to be concerned with that, so maybe I'm just too pessimistic.

I usually go back in there with files to rough up the side, but honestly I don’t think there’s enough wax in there to mess with the final glue up

Beautiful knife!..I’ve watched you and other guys use that method to bed tangs before. I have yet to build a hidden tang knife but I always wondered if wax transfer is an issue afterwards? Do you wind up with wax in the tang bed after you pull the blade?

I’ve never had any trouble, I don’t use a whole lot of wax to begin with just enough to lightly coat the tang. I also go back in with some small files and clean up the edges because I found that the tang slot leaves an extremely tight fit which makes it difficult to slide the handle on and off while I’m working & checking it.
