I made this marking knife

[@johntheoldmod]

That's a really nice knife and such a treat to see someone useing a file properly instead of the usual scrubbing action, treating your tools properly pays dividends as proved by the way your plane cut effortlessly.

[@imadethischannel]

Thanks for watching! I‘m glad the people appreciate manual labour. But I do think scrub filing has it‘s place as well :)

[@stevethomas4491]

You made a nice knife but a marking knife has a bevel on one side only ,im left handed so I've always made my own

[@imadethischannel]

Well, if you have no secondary bevel, you essentially have a merge flat area on both sides.

[@alexanderveselak9774]

@@imadethischannel I was also thinking this as I'm also left-handed and watched when you were using it, and it definitely looks bang on the side of the steel rule you used.

[@DMRT1234]

I am totally doing this. Thanks! Looks like a Stanley No. 78 plane iron.

[@imadethischannel]

Yes, go for it! I have no idea what iron it was. I found it in a junk box somewhere.

[@leonardokalinci9894]

[@RobertGlover-oz2rb]

Traditionally Marking Knives are sharpened on one one side. This allows a strait cut against a square, rather like a cutting gauge instead of a marking gauge.

[@imadethischannel]

This knife has a large bevel without a secondary phase. So it can be registered against the work on both side.

[@dawdawsd1]

beautiful, and made with hand tools only, super!

Superbe idée. Superbe travail. Merci beaucoup.

[@tinycuisine6544]

Lovely job. I'd like to know if it can be used without tempering, so that it is harder. Thank you for sharing

[@imadethischannel]

Well, if you make it too hard, it becomes brittle. Un-tempered carbon steel can shatter when you drop it.

[@JSaltyfabricator]

The blade will also be much too hard to sharpen if untempered. Cutting tools do not have to be maximum hardness possible. People seem to think harder is better when in fact that is just not the case.

Super idea, very clear video. 👌

[@hbslijper]

For a smoother result, it is better to use sandpaper with water. The scratches will then be less noticeable.

[@imadethischannel]

Yes, but it‘s also messier. Especially around wood it can cause mean stains. I guess it‘s a matter of taste.

[@hbslijper]

@@imadethischannel My comment should be seen in general, no more or less than that. It really has become a beautiful knife, you don't often see them like that.

[@imadethischannel]

Thank you!

[@stephanebenteux1625]

Thank you very much for sharing this. Nice design and realization. I'm a bit surprised you beveled both sides of the blade (I'm more used to have one flat side).

[@imadethischannel]

Hey, thanks! I like a wide bevel on both sides that can be put flat against the work piece. I guess it is a matter of taste...

[@Nikkeftw]

I was thinking too if one side completely flat didnt make more sense as well. However, I use both my hands a lot for most tasks, I wouldnt know which side to make flat :D

[@Aedalas]

@@Nikkeftw Depends on you. I made one awhile back with the left side flat because I'm about useless with my left hand, it works for me.

[@Im-building-stuff]

A nice marking pen looks comfortable BTW it's possible that you make a pen for marking on iron copper bras or aluminium ?

[@imadethischannel]

Thanks! Yes, it’s possible. I think it would be called a scribe and the tip has to be very hard.

[@applegamer2865]

Wouldn't it be a good idea to bevel just one side and leave the other side full flat? Really awesome and neat job though.

[@imadethischannel]

It has a large flat in each side so it can be used on both sides. Thanks for watching!

[@JSAFIXIT]

very nice! You make it look easy.

[@georgedennis2719]

Can you say more about the type of file you're using. I appears to be really heavy duty

[@imadethischannel]

I like to use relatively large files with medium coarse cut to remove a lot of material.

[@joeseabert8391]

About 20 years ago I bought an xacto knife bit the handle is plastic and the blade is thin. I think this is a nice replacement.

[@joeseabert8391]

Replacement is the wrong word, upgrade is a better word choice.

[@aryareel3760]

Good idea uncle

[@DCTG]

very nice work!

[@MasqueArt]

Good work, but the marking knife should have a bevel on one side, so it is flush with a ruler or anything you mark against, this way, you can be imprecise depending on the angle you mark in or depending on the height of the piece you mark against.

[@imadethischannel]

Hey, I think that is not necessarily the case. This knife has wide, flat bevels on both sides and no micro-bevel. This way, it can be but flat against the work on both sides and score lines directly at the edge of a piece.

[@alee7043]

​@@imadethischannelcorrect, you only have to tilt the blade away from the guide. However, sometimes this can cause the edge to wander a bit.

[@gillesklr650]

Very nice and built with meticulous work and thought. In my opinion you are both correct a single flat grind does potentially lead to greater accuracy however it is relegated to an individual right or left handed worker. A traditional Scandy grind is ambidextrous, therefor can be used by left and right handed craftsperson.
