Jimmy walks into a bar and the bartender asks: - Did you make a knife recently? - Yes, but how did you know? - You've got a shaved patch on your forearm again.

[@StygianBlood]

My family and friends stopped asking if I had made or sharpened a knife after the day i went through my house and sharpened every knife i own......i had no hair on my arms when i finished

[@Xenerus]

[@aragornstark6384]

You make this look like it's so easy to do

[@MastroFaber]

Hi Jimmy!! Superb as ever, I was wondering, why no to try to treat wood with vacuum chamber instead of pressure chamber? I think vacuum can eliminate almost all air bubbles very well from inside the wood, wath do you think about? Regards from Italy!

[@annswarmfuzzies]

Mastro Faber vacuum chamber pulls bubbles to the surface as it expands the air in the resin. Good if you have a few hours to stand and watch it, and it’s in an open mold. In the pressure chamber, the pressure forces the bubbles to shrink to microscopic size, and cures the resin in a fraction of the time as well and can be done in a sealed mold like the ziplock bag.

[@71723]

Peter Brown at Shop Time has a few videos that show off those 2 processes.

[@MastroFaber]

@@annswarmfuzzies I'm a beginner with resin treatment, and maybe vacuum treatment is more suitable for composites such carbon and fiberglass right? Due to the reason that prevents formation of break points

[@MastroFaber]

@@71723 thanks for the tip, I'll watch them for sure!

Nice, Jimmy....

Can you make a tutorial on HOW YOU MOVE SO DARN FAST???

[@giheatherhobbit]

I’ve watched so many makers carefully make a mold box for their resin projects and here you make it so simple with a ziplock bag. Lol

[@Dosbomber]

When he squeezed it between two more blocks of wood with tape (I thought it was rubber bands) I thought it was going to be the pressure pot as well. :)

The drop and drag at 3:50 cracks me up probably more than it should!

What did he put on before the teak oil?

[@jimmydiresta]

thin ca glue 2 times with sanding between

[@jman890202]

@@jimmydiresta Thanks, Jimmy! I assume that functions are a pore sealer.

[@oobaka1967]

This Jimmy guy, if he keeps at it, might become good at making things someday. Don't give up, Jimmy.

[@SaltyVibrations]

Jimmy's back!! Sweet pointy thing. Drippy cyano, then teak oil, I'm I missing something ?

[@DrPronghorn]

I was wondering the same thing.

[@pedalzworkshop5279]

Thinking the same thing!

[@gunterhausfrau]

is it to fill voids (like the epoxy) or seal the pores? I'm thinking slather in cyano, sand back, then oil?

[@jimmydiresta]

I did sand it w 300 and more CA and more sanding .. then oil.. it was repetitive

[@gunterhausfrau]

jimmydiresta great. makes sense. is the thinner glue better than thicker epoxy or just more handy or?

[@GabrielRamosxD]

You make knife. I watch you make knife

[@workhardism]

Ok, deal! Have your people call my people and we'll do lunch. LoL.

Same question..

[@charlietighe]

Yep, 2P-10 glue

[@giovannicarlofrizza1896]

hello jimmy! I'm one of your first subscribers and I live in Italy. I would like to know what you think about Article 13 of the European Union on copyright. I would never want that (in in a year or two) I can no longer see your videos from the place i live.... here everyone is worried ... I'm worried and even the youtube administrators are worried ...let me know jimmy ... and thanks for your videos ... i hope i can keep watching them in the future.

[@pricecassidy6460]

what was the point of the epoxy resin since he just shaved it all off?

[@gunterhausfrau]

filled in all the voids. you can see where it filled when the scales are cut.

[@firechicken5]

It fills a crack on the right side of the handle

[@TheOriginalOrkdoop]

I don't know, but it feels unintentional that it was mostly shaved off. Its pretty still

[@robertgemski7728]

To “stabilize” the wood.

[@adamyorke7869]

Hi Jimmy. Very nice knife. I have a question though. What was the 2P-10 for? You used the resin/vac process for stabilizing the burl, right? If so, why apply the 2P-10 before the oil?

[@Mumbungua]

I really thought the handle was going to be a bright hunter orange when finished. That looked beautiful.

Awesome looking knife! Looks good with the cutting board I made for you and Taylor 😉❤️

[@Dopefish76]

Awesome! I've only heard of using crazy glue as finish, never actually seen it done before - it looks great! Thanks dude!

[@TheMikeRybak]

I don’t think you can ensure proper heat treat after plasma cutting a blade. I think that’s why most manufacturers cut blanks with a water jet.

[@nunosantos5376]

To my taste, this is the coolest knife you made in a video. The way the handle hugs the metal is just perfect. The material you put around the wood, after sanding it wast just a very tin layer, right?

[@workhardism]

I like that cutting board at the end. If you made it, a video on that perhaps?

[@pipc4754]

Hello Jimmy, looking at how much super glue soaked into the wood, do you think the resin vacuum bag process was necessary?? I like the colour of the resin was surprised how little was left at the end.

[@Conan_Obrien]

Love the look! Just don't know what the orange/red mold was for. Can somebody enlighten this fool? Was it meant to stabilize the wood, despite being cut off and ground down?

[@budude2]

Can I suggest you try your hand at a slicer (like for briskets) - I would guess you could get a lot of buyers from bbq/smoker crowd - would be a cool project I think! Anyway - beautiful work there!

[@jmconnollyus]

Is the audio supposed to be unintelligible? My playback has the video and audio sped up with no understandable commentary.

[@sparky1044]

I hope you cut the apple Before shaving your arm lol. What kind of drill bit were you using to make the holes in the handle? Countersink or something else...never seen a bit like that before, looks like 2 different sizes on the same shank.

[@BruceAUlrich]

Gorgeous shape you got on that knife!

[@b0z0dcl0wn]

This is a beautiful knife! Probably one of my favorites you've made. The CA glue finish is nice.

[@jeffhulett4194]

I told myself I wasn’t going to watch another knife making video, getting sick of them, before I knew what was happening, I watched the whole thing.

[@skillage18]

How come your bandsaw blade doesnt twist all over...? I have a 1/4 inch I think and its always twisting and if I try to tighten it, it snaps.

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Beautiful knife you created there Sir, any chance for a video or something telling about/showing your pressure curing of the epoxy method ? I have never seen that done before on a small scale like you did and it gives me lots of ideas. Have a great weekend.

[@alanscannell]

Beautiful timber and awesome knife. Love the zip lock bag idea 👍

[@osolomons]

I'm just curious: why did you coat the wood for the handle in resin when you made knife - it was all sanded off later? Did it seep into the wood and stabilise it or something? Or change the colour of the wood?

[@LoganBiren]

It’s a beautiful knife but he has a beautiful anvil and forge that he doesn’t use. To me it just seems like a waste. You can still make the same beautiful knife if you forge it, plus you get more satisfaction out of it. And if you sell it you can make much more money since it is hand forged.

[@arlingtonhynes]

Is there anybody on KZbin not getting free shit from TotalBoat? NTTAWWT.

[@GameofKnowing]

I'm a little confused about where the epoxy ended up-- the final handle is wood, right? Did the epoxy just end up as waste material?

[@harrybond007]

At some level I hate these Diresta videos because there is no explanation of the details and reasoning behind what/why/how is being done, most of the time you just have to guess, really not very educational

[@Mister_R.A.E.]

Another Diresta masterpiece!! Welcome back!!

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

When you stabilized the handle with resin, is there a difference between your method of using pressure as opposed to the vacuum chamber method? Is one method better or is it a matter of preference? Thanks 👍🏻. 🇺🇸😎

[@Harhour]

Great work as usual bro! I have question though : was it CA glue that you coated the handle with before the teak oil?

[@Frankreddy62]

I thought the same. Never heard of it though.

Great knife, Jimmy. The ending was perfect.
