Knife Making: Pre-grinding at Nebulax123's shop. **read description**

Many people have asked me how to get a knife from me. Best way to ask about that is to email me:

Thanks to my mentor for both teaching me what to do and being patient enough to let me come over and work whenever I want to. A good teacher is more valuable than you can imagine!

That's awesome man I'm always glad to hear when someone is getting some good use of their sharpening equipment. Thanks for the kind words and support bro!

Hi John, And thank you to the chap speaking, thank you very much. Just a note as a suggestion for you to get some finger stools, or stalls. Simple rubber one found in the paper and print finishing, and the others which are make in lots of sizes from leather that with prevent your fingers and or thumbs burning! Just a thought

[@moviking]

Cool setup, blades looking great. Thanks for the updates.

[@EverlastingPinecone]

Keep up the good work John! Really excited for what you will accomplish and put out into the knife world

[@randy5520071]

My friend that blade looked mighty good i belive you will go far. All have a blessed day Randy.

[@ReclusiveMountainMan]

Good Luck. Looks like you're well on your way. Great designs, too. I love the drop point version.

[@paradox7xx]

Nice to see you pursuing your dream! I'm looking forward to future knife making videos from you while you learn, I've always wanted to try making one myself.

[@jdavis882]

That is a great idea, but I rely on my fingers to tell me how cool the blade is. For pre-HT that is an excellent idea, but post heat treat I have to be VERY careful about how hot the blade gets. My fingers are the best way to make sure that I don't get the blade too hot. Thanks for watching and supporting me!

[@johnhenshall1995]

Lookin good can't wait to see the finished handled knives

[@pyaoliang]

What a natural!

[@toddpoppleton5303]

I support you. I think following your dream is awesome. Keep grinding.

[@propblast82nd]

Fantastic,you're on the way.

[@hupkat]

Looking good! Keep the videos coming!

[@jdavis882]

I really just take it slow and pay close attention to what is happening on each pass. That way if I see something I don't like I can correct it. I'm still very, very much a beginner, but I'd be happy to help in any way I can.

[@AtPeacePiece]

Awesome man! I like your designs.

[@dustyjames3314]

Need more vids of the process. Great vid man

[@drivingmuffin]

Would like to buy one of your knifes in the future!

[@jdavis882]

Many times. 36 grit belts at 3600rpm takes your skin off FAST!

[@LMarshall32]

Outstanding!!! If you ever have a question or need advice i am just a call away. Thumbs up!!

[@future_phonk]

Loving the design of the reverse tanto/ modified sheeps-hoove/ modified wharncliff. Not sure what to call the blade shape.

[@gundude73]

Cool!

[@jdavis882]

I don't know I've had a few people tell me that recently.

[@ShawnCantwellKnives]

Excuse me. Do you have any knives for sale? I’d love to add one of your knives to my collection.

[@joesquat2891]

[@jdavis882]

Well on their way, haha.

[@v8esprit]

Tell us about the belt, the grit, and the motor.

[@sticktodrum]

So....when are you going to start taking pre-orders? :D

[@E1337N3SS]

Sweet! Have you caught your hand with the belt yet?

[@xadam123]

[@pauldragosljvich9796]

JD Knives.

[@jdavis882]

Thanks bro! I think so. S90V at 62rc with a thin convex grind should be pretty mean.

[@jdavis882]

Not yet. That's been the hardest part for me.

[@jrocket092887]

HI JOHN D! JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HELPFUL INSIGHT INTO SHARPENING AND ALL THINGS BLADECRAFT.. PICKED UP THE STROPS YOU HAVE RECOMMENDED AND I AM REALLY ENJOYING THE RESULTS! THE BLADES LOOK GREAT BUDDY, KEEP EM SIMPLE AND DISTINGUISHED.

[@chavezchavez556]

I guess it doesn't matter for you if you start with s90v. I still can't grind that well and I have grand 10 blades.

[@jdavis882]

Lol thanks!

[@GreatToastMigration]

It's cool that you have someone that is teaching you some techniques aswell as letting you use his tools.

[@FCM415]

You had to go straight to s90v eh? lol Looking good, I'm paying attention.

[@JANKOSYN]

Can't wait to see them finished! I sent you an email. Take care.

[@stonybrokebushcraf]

[@nickmatranga220]

[@socomelite1]
