About Simple Little Life:
This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

Beautiful knife! If she doesn't have a name yet, you could call her "Chubby" because of that belly on the handle 😂😂.

[@m53knives8]

great man.....

[@eheritage21]

I’ve wanted to make a knife for a very long time but hit a roadblock on heat treat. I have access to a kiln and going to try with 1095. Trying to find a steel with simple heat treat. You have very nice craftsmanship.

[@keanujurczak8943]

super matos !!! je rêve d'un atelier comme ca pour faire mes couteaux !!! merci a +

[@madswellejus]

[@liamculbertson9323]

Beautiful knife Jeremy, thanks again for sharing your process with us

[@andreabressello24]

Superbo..😍

[@Simplelittlelife]

Thank you!

[@tattedcop2075]

Ordered a custom knife 6 months ago . Just checking status !

[@darrenkirk6576]

Gday mr Jeremy.. cool knife build.. finished product looks awesome.. any progress on my two??

[@jamespittman6476]

Two questions, first which heat treating oven are you using? And second what is the tool you are using to help fold your foil packets? Thanks man, for a nee knife maker like me your videos are amazing

[@bicak_knife_messer_tool]

Good Knife, Blade Spine Jimping Make!

[@coreymilstein7407]

Great video! In this case was there a reason why you heat treated and tempered before doing the initial grinds? From other videos it seems like normally heat treat comes after? Thanks!

[@d.j.roberts187]

Beautiful. What grit is that final trizact belt on the bevels?

[@claytondennis8034]

You should try a hollow grind on your scale bevels. That would be similar to the target stocks that came on Smith & Wesson or Colt Revolvers. I think it could look amazing.

[@Simplelittlelife]

You should try it 👍

[@erwhat3]

Hey Jeremy, what grinding jig are you using there? Do you have a video on it?

[@LogoxSKUL]

What Countersink do you use? I have seen a lot of countersinks that chatter on metal and the one you use seems to work well.

[@bulldogkesel291]

Niceeee

[@Simplelittlelife]

Thanx

[@pr51]

That’s nice! How did you darken the logo ?

[@TheBigburcie]

This knife is just beautifully clean and meaty.

[@mxrider278]

Nice job. What did you use to etch the Symbol on the blade?

[@conradmeyer9991]

there are a few guyes that work outside best idea i had since moses learned to swim

[@user-ts9hk9cy8h]

عمل جميل

[@seanm1690]

Send it my way.. along with the bill!! 😄👍

[@heyimamaker]

When you put the pins in, is there a special drill bit or rod that you buy that is precise? I found that a 1/4 bit and maybe 1/4 brass rod is nowhere near exact.

[@billbaggins]

Nice one Jeremy 👍. A lot to be said about plain and simple design when they are done this well.

[@leewalsh2676]

Hiya, just want to say I love your content, and if possible would love to show of your knifes when I start my channel in a couple of months I hope I can order 1?? I'm from Coventry England my name is Lee and like I say u make me feel like getting my angel grinder out!!! KEEP IT BRO!!!!

[@PINACI]

Are the pins used made from stainless steel or mild steel ?

[@ladybirdlawncare2969]

Great channel. I’ve been tuning in for awhile. I’m also in the Calgary area. Where do you source your steel around here?

[@Simplelittlelife]

Sweet! I use knifemaker.ca (really great little "mom & pop" shop with stellar service) out of Sundre for stainless steels handle material and all that. For O-1 tool steel I get it from Metal Supermarkets in the SE. So rad to learn of other close to me making knives 👍

[@rockfebres6601]

JUST SPEECHLESS!! 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

[@bh3141]

Pro tip: white vinegar works great as a non-toxic cleaner for uncured epoxy. $0.02

[@joxicanu]

Why did you make the heat treatment before grinding?

[@indiedavecomix3882]

This is the first channel I’ve seen freeze the knife. What does that do for the metal? It’s very interesting.

[@nils-ph3zs]

its called cryo treatment. It gives a few extra hrc (the steel gets a little harder). This is is due to the change from remainig Austenit to martensit in the steel.

[@mikeb3401]

Do you do anything with the scrap pieces that are left when you cut the knife from the square in the beginning?

[@andrewstreib6200]

Where did you get that metal sanding block
