It's really hard making a knife design that is unique and actually good. That's really awesome to think of a design like that

[@netgod3com]

It is a design from the early 1980s Smith & Wesson 6041 and 6042 Swing Blade Knives, they came in a single edge and double edge design

[@sttonep242]

This is not new design. I bought one of these in Turkey in 2016. Not the most practical but fun to play with

[@Kaheedran]

He didn't think of it first CTKT had the same mechanism years before

[@Kaheedran]

It's not unique, buy it is cool as fuck. And takes a lot of skill, BUT, it is not an original design

[@gajdankristof5768]

It is indeed a cool knife but my granfather made a knife like this when he was 15 in 1958. So he made a knife with this same mechanism way before Smith and Wesson. And it is my knife now, still working, still sharp😁

[@ChristopherSalisburySalz]

You've got some angle grinder cutting skills! Cutting a uniform thin strip like that is harder than it looks.

[@mojoman2001]

No gloves?

[@MrJackandEmily]

I was quietly impressed with that.. Top hand skills.

[@MrJackandEmily]

@@mojoman2001 no gloves. What a man does in his own workshop is his own business.

[@kriskringus2191]

mojoman2001 You don’t wear gloves with rotary tools, don’t want it getting caught up

[@connorbrown5613]

Much harder than it looks😂

[@SesshouFan22]

I have never seen a blade that folded like this, and I have an amateur collection of over 300 different knives! I stopped counting when I got to 300 lol This is so cool and different and I absolutely love it! Very, very well done!

[@matt1yas]

This is the first time I see a knife like this, you have such a creative mind 👏

[@thefrogstronaut]

The amount of precision you achieve with hand tools is truly amazing.

[@davefman1984]

yes, a truly skilled individual. I'm a machinist and I'm building one with machine tools right now. its even a bit of a challenge for me. he makes it look so easy

[@saschakorner9317]

Did you watchers noticed how skillful he handle the angle grinder? This Guy must be the Anglegrinder God or he sleeps with it under his pillow.... XD

[@KCDW83]

Maybe he went to the crossroads.

[@justsomedude2882]

Yeah im good at it too just comes from doing it alot but this guy is better then i am

[@bardrick4220]

I was gonna say that method tends to make discs kick and explode . . . you don't want to be making tracks for the disc to run along or have the friction run in a direction that pushes out of the cut or towards you!

[@Allanrpsx]

@@bardrick4220 nope. If you are making disks explode you are handling the tool poorly

[@bardrick4220]

@@Allanrpsx LOL that's exactly what I said! Don't do the things I mentioned or you're operating it poorly! IDK why people can't just draw a line and follow it like any other saw! Maybe they need different guards to show just how dumb they look holding it and cutting backwards! Not using a guard or side handle? Then you're an idiot too! They make them adjustable for a reason!

[@j.t7442]

I love the simplicity behind this design. Something that is possible to make yet no special equipment required to mill or shape the steel. I love it. I'll have to take notes from this design.

[@EBb697]

I love your videos so much!! Your the one that got me into knife making!!

[@johnsonchong5920]

This design is very unique, love it.

[@IsaKocoglu]

Absolutely marvellous and equally stunning! Thank you so much for sharing this gem 🥰👍

[@shofarox4037]

This is THE BEST FOLDING knife idea that I have ever seen in my life... Period.

[@user-hk8nj3gw8u]

Насколько продумано! Шикарный нож. Сколько таких видео по ютубу - а тут аж самому такой захотелось.

[@rrs_13]

knifemakers usually trashtalk about the angle grinder... This gentleman shows that everyone can use an angle grinder, but not everyone can actually use it to it full extent. Grinder skills is probably his middle name. I bow to you sir.

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Very classy! Etch the brass with a custom design. Nail polish and ferric works well. 👍

[@EvanIsAwesome777]

It really is refreshing to see a youtuber that actually knows how to run a grinder. So many guys out there treat it like a hack and slash tool and rarely see the the potential for precision work

[@pjhalchemy]

Love the shape of the blade, reminds me of my old Kershaw Wild Turkey. Really well done on the mechanism! Thanks always!

[@dieseldabz7104]

Wow that looks VERY similar to a knife I got as a kid in the late 80's early 90's...1st knife that ever cut me actually... STILL have it in my collection

[@dbmail545]

I think that is the best usage of a cutoff wheel that I have ever seen.

[@NicolasPicklelas]

I was thinking the same thing, I should show this to my shop class

[@wesleytownsend8214]

This is done well and makes me think I could do it... then I realize I am a woodworker not a metal smith and I fall back to earth. Great content! I wish good health and all the best to you and yours!

[@Camelotsmoon]

Never to late to learn 😊. I'm sure some skills could transfer over.

[@bavash100ul]

This knife makes me to look it twice.. just to find the folding mechanism and clearance for the thin strip.. it's just mindblowing... keep making more like this.

[@save_the_iraqi_people__1487]

*BEST FOLDABLE KNIFE DESIGN I'VE EVER SEEN!! SO SMART & ELEGANT*

[@markrichards631]

Simplicity at it's finest 👌 What a beautiful knife to pass onto your kids & grandkids... Well done 👍

I'm so envious of your equipment. The table on my belt sander broke so now I don't ever take a 90 degree flat service for granted.

[@summerisnotnice]

[@littletrev4585]

This is by far the most eye pleasing knife I’ve ever seen

[@easynortheast1888]

Beautiful knife, the design is sick. I would so buy that.

[@mudbox4782]

[@IslamIslam-13]

In the mid 80s, I had a knife with such a folding mechanism.

[@hazemzoma3363]

Clever idea to cover the blade 👍

[@bushcraft_bushcraft]

В детстве делал складной нож, складывался в 6-ти гранный карандаш. Контрился при помощи шарика от подшипника🤗

[@goyeci]

Пишут, что это уникальная конструкция. Я знал о таком ноже с детства, 50-годы. Стоил он 3.50 р, но был по советских грубоват. А лет 20 назад купил такого типа нож названием Скат в очень качественном исполнении. Нож отчественный, в моей коллекции. Но что правда, конструкция действительно интересная.

First time to see a knife like this. I had trouble comprehending what you were doing, then it was, aahhh. That’s the neatest knife I’ve seen in a long time. As usual, your craftsmanship is top tier.

[@RadDadisRad]

[@davefman1984]

I really like the design. It's something a beginner could attempt without feeling overwhelmed. You are clearly not a beginner and did a fantastic job. I might attempt this with titanium instead of brass and steel for the handle portions.

[@padlok1520]

have fun bending ti like he bent that brass

[@davefman1984]

@@padlok1520 if you heat titanium with a propane torch it bends with no effort while its hot. once it cools its very rigid again. I work in aerospace parts manufacturing as a machinist and we do a lot of hot forming titanium for curved parts. I've also made a titanium spork by clamping a ball peen hammer in a vice with the ball facing up and repeatedly heating the spoon area of the spork with a hand held propane torch and hammering against the ball to achieve a scoop contour. I use it every day to eat my lunch.

Is your spork all colourful from the oxides?
