Knife Making - Copper Folding Knife

[@HenningJohansen]

Some are excellent knife makers. Some are excellent artists. Koss is an excellent artist, who is also an excellent knife maker.

GOSTEI! MAS SE ELE COLOCAR UM CLIP DE BOLSO FICARIA MELHOR AINDA??

[@deanmerchant203]

Beautiful knife! I like the gracefulness of the setting of the hardware.

[@funkojones2947]

Love the design. I would love to see a longer blade with a double bevel (thinking dagger). The mechanism is great! I could not puzzle it out until the very end.

[@bunnyniyori6324]

VERY classy and a true KISS principle tool. Copper is a nice touch.

[@jordanezell5132]

That is a lovely piece of cutlery.

Bin absoluter Laie, aber ich sehe eine super qualitativ hochwertige Arbeit 😮

[@glebtcheslavski1085]

I would be soooo willing to pick-up those M390 chips! Thank you for the video, great work!!

[@vinceianni4026]

Hello Koss beautiful knife Beautifully made good job well done

[@a.p.a.woodmetal3412]

You create such complex knife designs that are brutal and workmanlike at the same time. Bravo master 👏👌👍👍👍😉

[@dragonback6075]

Design & function in perfect unison 👍 .. I'd definitely give this piece space in my home 😊

[@dragonback6075]

Sadly there's nothing currently listed on Etsy 😢

[@hownow8442]

Very nice! I like how it looks like a simple design but is very precise and sleek. Master level!

Very cool build thank you for sharing!Watching you wear gloves with machines is terrifying!

Perfectionist works always perfect......🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 V.good.....

[@robertkoontz7865]

Well done, I trust that lock design more than most others. Have you tested it?

[@blacklisted4885]

Wow such a compact item

[@romandybala]

Beautiful work. Amazing craftsmanship. Wouldnt be a practical knife to use with the flat metal handle.

[@d.rbanilejo9981]

It was really nice work. 🎉🎉

[@DarioushAryan]

Great job man... bravoo

[@ifell3]

Now that's fantastic. You used a lot of processes there. Now as the handle locks it into position, is this called a locking knife and if so which category does it go in?

[@Koss-channel]

I'm unsure if this locking mechanism has a specific name. It's a new design I came up with, but I have a feeling I've seen something like it somewhere.

[@ifell3]

@@Koss-channel only thing I can think it's closest to would be a butterfly type. It's really clever, especially how you have the two indents.

[@richardharley9802]

@@Koss-channelI personally think it’s closer to a gravity knife similar to the ones Reate makes just a bit stiffer. But overall its really cool

[@James-g3w7w]

​@@Koss-channelFrom the right materials this turns a lock blade into a folding knife with fixed blade strength. Not only knives but saws and chisels. Would like to see a curved skinning/butcher blade, when open the handle would be in reverse curvature making it a great chopper, with a six inch blade that's the perfect bush crafter or military pilot survival kit knife. Are you familiar with the JOE X destruction test videos? This might be the only design that can survive one of those.

[@PyramidHead6]

very nice crafting skills. I enjoyed the video and your work. One thing, there was a repeating clicking sound though out the video, a bit annoying. Have a good day.

[@stephenbetteridge5161]

Very nice. 👍

[@alisson5582]

isso é arte, incrivel dms

[@КузницаЛевша]

Шикарный инструмент.

[@Pablo668]

Great work. I was trying top puzzle out where the design was going. I'm curious like that.

[@JinKee]

The knife is amazingly safe- there is literally no way for it to close on your fingers

[@scottwallace4864]

That thing is cool.

[@guillaumelesage9389]

50% precision machining 50% free hand

[@butthedd0233]

HIGHLY COOL!!!

[@robertqueberg4612]

This is a unique video in several ways. The copper rectangular tubing being used as the scales and frame to anchor the blade was the leader. All of the operations were performed in a very nice manner. At this point I would like to interject a few suggestions in the interest of safety for you and any of your viewers. The first and potentially most dangerous is the use of gloves around machinery of any type. If a glove is grabbed by along spiraled chip, it will not want to turn your glove and what it contains easily. Your small equipment is unlikely to kill you, but this is the place to develop good safety habits that will protect you and those around you. I will use a pair of gloves to carry glass, sheet metal, or heavy plate with a rough sawed edge. The chuck key left in the lathe chuck, could kill a person or damage the machine tool. I saw a guy come within a couple inches (51mm) of getting one stuck in his head. I was right next to him with a too close view of the show. The last issue is the failure to lower the bandsaw blade guide down to keep a finger or hand from being amputated or cut deeply enough that it will never work like it did the day before. The reason for the observations, comes from working in tool rooms after starting out in a shop with lots of machines with 30-60 hp spindle motors. It can happen quickly. Yes, I have gotten stitched up a few times, but I learned something from each experience. I am trying to help the people who are watching this video from learning with your blood and time. The internet has quite a selection of gruesome during and after videos and still photos. Work safe and enjoy what you are learning here.

[@markdarlington9914]

Crazy question where do you get copper rectangular box section am in uk and maybe am looking in wrong places help appreciated copper or brass love the knife would like to make uk legal edc in this manner

[@johnmosier6899]

Also been looking for that copper box section

[@dixie2308]

Spooky was literally thinking about the same thing 😂

[@CadillacDriver]

Maybe he bought sheets and folded it himself?

[@killerbern666]

@@CadillacDriverno, they were clearly rectangular

[@CadillacDriver]

@@killerbern666 Well no kidding?? Do you think they come out of the ground like that? Someone has to fold them and seam them.... Is there *absolutely* no possibly he bought flat sheets and manufactured box sections?

You should have added a notch on the blade so that you can open it with the same hand.

What “blueing” or tarnishing compound did you use?? I like that it turned black and not green

[@s90210h]

[@RatsAndFunTV]

Superbe.

[@Boreascorax]

Excellent work, but wearing gloves in a machine shop is really unsafe practice.

[@dinho890i]

What,why?

[@Boreascorax]

@@dinho890i Because of the danger of a glove get caught by either a rotating cutter or workpiece. The same holds true for jewelry such as rings, long hair, loose long sleeves, etc. This was one of the first things I learned in trade school when I entered the Tool & Die trade. Bear in mind that even a small metal lathe is powerful enough to twist a person's body in knots without even slowing down. There are of course exceptions such as when handling materials, but the gloves come off before the machinery starts turning.

[@stvincents2007]

Oh bore off

[@winterfoxx9851]

I didn't realize that, I just generally don't like wearing gloves

[@Tackeroner]

better to have a slice to your hand than a whole chunk cut off

Нож интересный,но рукоять слишком широкая,но тонкая. Не удобно наверное. Может лучше было сделать клинок по уже. Тогда и рукоять можно было бы сделать компактнее. А в остальном отличный нож.

[@masioni90]

why would you counter sink the screw holes just to have hardware that is not only not flush, but the heads have flat bottoms so the counter bore does nothing to sink the screws in and only makes the copper weaker.
