I Spent 200 Hours Making These Knives (I'm Done)

[@buenodye4723]

Have to say the one that has the blueish handle reminds me of the night sky in a Van Gogh painting 💯👌 wonderful blades. You never disappoint 👍

[@dwayneburbridge3283]

Exactly my thought!

[@shotout74]

Agreed, I saw it and thought of Starry Night also.

The blue one really reminded me of Van Gogh's The Starry Night. Amazing work, as usual!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Horcalong]

I just deleted my comment saying the same thing.

My first thought exactly.

[@SamPeers1]

Blue handle is my favourite, reminds me of the starry night by Van Gogh. Inspiring and flawless results again by the best bladesmith on youtube and probably the world.

[@KyleRoyerKnives]

Feeling the love my friend Dad

[@robbie3068]

I love the etch, sand, etching, repeat, neutralizing, coffee darkening, polishing, coffee break section! Amazing work as always!

[@BraxtonHoward]

One of the best montages I've seen.

[@glenpaul3606]

The black one with fine grain...really accentuates the beautiful shaping you did.

[@Established1975]

Beautiful work. The carbon fiber is my favorite. It has this stealthy, dark, electric, feel, when the light hits a fiber facet. Like rain glinting at night.

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

It’s a toss up between the blue and the ivory. Great work, as always! 👍

[@cybertree]

The blue burl is stunning, far and away my favourite. Never been a fan of carbon fibre for knife handles but you managed to make even those look sweet :)

[@sanguinemoon9201]

That Windex tip for sanding is the best advice I've gleaned from your videos. You've saved me hours of time making sanding more efficient. Less clogging of the sandpaper, easier sanding, and much cleaner. The final finish is also more uniform.

[@KyleRoyerKnives]

Good to hear my friend Keep Forging On Dad

[@billyraydavis3400]

You sir have a gift thank you for going to all the trouble making these videos thank you from the bottom of my heart

Hey thanks Billy we appreciate that. Glad you’re here. Like and share we appreciate it my friend Dad

[@MR-il9me]

Every time I watch your videos I look for a step in the process to say ‘ I can do THAT part at least ‘ but that part never comes… that’s why you’re the mastersmith. Really beautiful knives.as always

[@KyleRoyerKnives]

Find one thing that you can try and feel free to do it poorly. Then try again til you start getting it to go the way it should. Practice practice practice. You can do it. Keep Forging On my friend Dad

I like the contrast of the ebony blade and ivory handle. All are beautiful though as always with you thoughtful and meticulous work process.

I am always blown away by the level of craftsmanship and creative taste you put into all of your blades. I can't describe your work without using near religious language. Thank you so much for inspiring and teaching all of us newer makers to kick our work up to the next level.

[@stevefritzson3199]

So I recently got into making my own knives but am a beginner. I've made two so far. Gives me a serious amount of respect for guys like you that build such amazing knives. Your damascus is insane! I love it. Do you ever sell just the damascus blanks so someone could use your patterns for their own projects? Also on the website every knife is sold so how does one know what they sell for or how do they have a chance to buy one?

[@jimcorbett3764]

They all look so good. My personal favorite is the ivory handle, but any of them- especially with those blades. Sweet lookin knives!

[@redwolfknives3174]

The purple one is my favorite as well

Beautiful knives, i love the purple and the blue one most, one van Gogh and one purple tiger and they look very nice, very nice indeed! And that white handle, dang that just works so well, simple but elegant and beautiful as well. Even the carbon ones look ace and i usually am not much of a fan of the carbon look, but these seem to flow and look quite different, very nice!

[@mkivy]

Hey Kyle. This is my favorite ( sanding), thing to do of my projects. It’s cathartic…that blue is beautiful. Is this wood injected? I use a lot of Ebony, African black wood, etc. the oils are unbelievable! I wish I had ur talent in the forging department. I could carve a handle but forging? No way…but I love the varying Damascus style and designs. U are the true master. My other favorite projects are bespoke shoe making! I remember buying my first Allen Edmonds and Parker/ Parker man. …love my shoes.can a person buy a blade such as this and place there own handle on? Beautiful work sir….beautiful! I love watching u. Say hey to ur mom and dad. U look like u live where I use to live in Jacksonville Illinois. Or Springfield Ohio, or terra haute Indiana, or Kansas, or Oklahoma…I know this isn’t my home town of Raton New Mexico…but it looks like middle America 🇺🇸

On forged in fire, they make a big deal of having mechanical hold for the handles in tandem with epoxy. My question is, the epoxy will airways hold our will it wear off over time?

Great question Will. Very rarely will we not use a mechanical union. We use the best epoxy known to us. West system . God’s 2nd law of thermal dynamics trumps man every time. But we diligently do our best to build superior products and service. Dad

[@MrJdsenior]

You can buy one of those static wrist straps they use for working on circuit boards and affix an alligator clip large enough to clamp onto the vise stand (maybe even mount the appropriate sized snap on it) and then you could just throw the wrist piece around your upper arm, or maybe better around your ankle or calf to keep it away from the grabby turny parts and it will bleed off static charge and prevent that shocking discharge from happening. There is a snap at the 'wrist' side too, so that you can just unsnap the wire to walk away and resnap it when you return. They are also designed with a megohm or so resistance so that if you somehow get across mains voltage it at least won't add to the current flowing through you, it would be pretty much just like getting shocked without the strap on. Little bit it of a pain, granted, just matters how much you are willing to put up with not to be shocked. Handles look spectacular. I just tried buffing wood on a whim once, and I was amazed how well it worked. LONG before the internet.
