Knife making - Japanese Knife from an Old File

An idea i had quite some time ago, making a Kwaiken from a rusty old file and a broken carpenters ruler, using the ruler for scales and adding in some contrast with Tiffany blue g10 liners and pins.

[@endless3cho]

This was my first video of yours to view and it did not disappoint. I got the idea from watching Houston Jones videos. You both have the type of humor that I admit I still enjoy. Great watch! I also love knives with a passion!!!

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

Wicked man im glad you decided to come and watch ill have lots more fun builds up

[@Charlielizard]

Brother, I know you've got one hell of a busy schedule, but you never cease to amaze me. Using that old folding ruler for scales turned out beautiful. You took a used file and ruler and came up with a brilliant combination. Have a great weekend and Cheers mate 🍻!

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

[@jimmyrustler8983]

I REALLY like that idea with the folding ruler as handle scales. May have to borrow this idea for a whittling knife I'm putting together, that'll come in handy when I misplace my other ruler 🤣 Excellent work as always, let me know if you ever want any old tools, I dig bottles from a Victorian era tip, I'm forever finding stuff like old axe heads and the like 🤙

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

Cheers man yeh feel free to use it. That’s cool i used to love finding old bottles and stuff theres a site near me but no good metal objects there unfortunately.

[@jimmyrustler8983]

​@@DiesInEveryFilmThanks man 👍 I find LOTS of stuff at mine, it was turned into an allotment after they capped the tip site, so lots of old gardening stuff. I found a 10lb spiking maul head about a year ago, made by Footprint of Sheffield! I've also found about 19kg of lead, and there's quite a bit of asbestos sheet there also, which we steer well clear of...

It seems like your wife has either been away for a while or you're sleeping in the doghouse the next few nights. 😂😂 Excellent 👍 Felt sorry for the old measuring stick at first. No, not that one. But, then again, it was completely useless, still not that one, not having metric markings on it. It's not often one sees a delapitated file and abused wood get a beautiful resurerection as a penetrating blade. 😅

I do believe you are missing an important part of his videos, yes he's making weapons etc but he also has a big element of entertainment to his productions, if all your after is verbatim engineering then there are a myriad of channels that go into every tiny aspect of how to file or cross file a blade etc.

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

I assume you haven’t made a knife before, stock removal in this was needed because I wanted to keep the file teeth there, not everything needs to be forged, it’s not cutting corners it has reason and im not a “forging channel” i build a variety of different things using different processes but the process i use are relevant to what i make and have reason.
