Butterfly knife with a butterfly.

[@IanCoomer]

For it being your first time forging a blade from steel tou have done yourself proud. Having put so much time and effort into hand forging the steel for the blade and using such a beautiful piece of wood for the handle. That knife really deserves a quality hand stitched leather sheath.

[@brendancampbell6408]

Orb Weavers really are beautiful creatures. I used to have a couple of Spiny Orb Weavers that lived in my backyard in the fruit trees.

[@BruceAUlrich]

Turned out cool! I've never tried a lot of that stuff. That sucks that the spider lost two legs, but glad you finished anyway.

[@DecomposingMoss]

Tip : When you first start hammering the piece, to give it the rough shape, use a heavier hammer. Even if the hammer is only slightly heavier, the positive difference is noticeable. This allows for better control of the hit placement as you are able to allow gravity to do more work and can focus more on accuracy.

[@louisw.1195]

Something you dont see that often . Excellent work!!

[@VoidDimensions-m1j]

The knife looks really good! I also like the spider it looks like it has a story why it has 6 legs.

[@diamondthing2858]

Name: black widow Dmg: 135-200 Effects: poison, venom Special effects: infestation Summons 50-100 spiders (10% for 300)

[@levimarlin4682]

It’s got such a rugged look witch in my opinion is pretty cool

[@craigdiller2772]

That's a really awesome knife handle

[@RB-ig4go]

The spider in the knife is so creative. Keep up the great vids.

[@levimarlin4682]

That is the most beautiful knife I believe I’ve ever seen

[@donaldweikel2963]

Awesome new way to make a functional knife

[@harryk1977]

Excellent build and looks like a really nice knife. Thanks for sharing the build process.

[@walkelftexasranger]

OMG that spid guy scares me :O That spider just waiting for his chance to breath again and kill every human in the world :O

[@JTWoodworks]

This turned out so awesome!! There are a bunch techniques you used in this video. Nicely done my friend

[@levetatorgaming]

Johnny builds deserves more subs and viewers and likes

[@AdamRich1785]

Great stuff Jonny! Would love a belt grinder like that!

[@RedBeardOps]

100% better finished product than my first knife build! LOL

[@Random_98765]

Gotta say man this thing is an absolute beauty, awsome work.

[@sksupply]

Dang I'm too OCD. I would have found another 8 legger. Beautiful knife!

[@COWASOGGY]

“I’ve never done this before” & “my makeshift press” LOL come on dude stop making us all feel better about ourselves. You’re a fuckin pro

[@jordancervini2519]

Beautiful knife loved watching the process and the finished result

[@BrianSargent]

That's a great knife! I got to forge a nail at Makers Central this rear and I still carry it around in my pocket sometimes. It's great to get to see you get into this stuff as well and broaden out! I'm not going to enter the draw though, since the knife wouldn't be street legal over here and it would be a shame for something like that to be kept hidden away.

[@masteroftheuniverse149]

Overall a beautiful knife. One thing for the next one, using the file guide is great for making your the ricasso perfect and even, but you really should round the corner's where the tang meets the blade. Having such hard edges creates stress points on the knife and makes it more likely to break in those areas leaving you with a handle-less knife and no way of repairing it. But great build for your first knife!

[@KomarProject]

Soo sweet dude !!

[@Nuclear187]

Would love to see 1 made with a black widow spider

[@ryanscissorhands]

Did you have any issues with the epoxy overheating during the shaping process? I've heard that's one of the drawbacks of using power tools to shape epoxy resin.

[@Procrastination2787]

a maybe tip for forging? this is just a thing i notice, the tang was kinda thin, i mean yes you want everything to stay nice and sleek but a chain is only as strong as its weakest link and most blades is see break do so where the blade and tang connect, thinning it out from what i've seen causes it to be weaker. its just an idea i had,

[@jaimeirizarry3902]

The way you tapered your handle material all the way to the guard like that has a potential to slip out of your hand but other than that, it's a beautiful knife, awesome for a first try!

[@ttocash122]

What is the blue paint/ ink you use before you mark your knife with the caliper?

[@robrobertson5582]

That was very cool. Would have never known that was your first attempt at knife making if you wouldn't have mentioned it. Great work as always bro!!!!!!

[@provibegarage]

Really cool idea. Turned out nice but if it was me I’d re-do the handle if my spider broke like that.

[@derekdamko]

Great looking knife, my one concern is that you put hard 90 degree corners at the ricasso, where your tang meets the blade. This can cause stress fractures and over time and could eventually break.You really want a bit a radius there to not allow for stress fractures to happen. That handle looks awesome. Great work for your first knife, wish I had the 2x72, really hogs away material fast.

[@JonnyBuilds]

Thanks and great tips! Definitely going to be mindful of this on the next one.

[@RS-Amsterdam]

Excellent job ! Thanks for sharing !

[@00ironcross]

Looks sick.... great job

[@1013redoak]

Great job on your first knife!

[@tristoncastille3013]

I love your knives and yoir channel I've thought Ild had great knives but yours are grade a amazing

[@rscrom1]

Great work. But if you keep the corners from the tang to the blade slightly rounded there is less chance of a break at that joint. But nonetheless. Great work.

[@shawnmurphy4970]

So when you establish your tang and finish it up where the Tang in the shoulder the knife meets shouldn't be square you need to round It Off because that avoids your knife from having a stress point and potentially breaking right there at the Tang

[@knighticon2150]

The transition between tang and the rest of the knife need to have a slight roundness to it. If its square the knife will brake off fron the tang.

[@CorkKNIFE]

Yeah, I don't understand why he would intentionally introduce that flaw.

[@BevelishCreations]

Wow that knife looks so good! Awesome job man!

[@BevelishCreations]

Oh just got to the giveaway part...my IG is bevelish_creations but you already know that lol

[@MCsCreations]

Beautiful job, dude! Really well done!!! 😃

[@dennispoissonjr7904]

Great job ,Looks nice

[@sircnaing5635]

Spiderknife Can sling like spiderman 1200 damage Inflicts poison (42%chance) Can throw When it breaks summon a mechanical orb weaver spider P.s u should do a butterfly knife with a real butterfly in it

[@MindToMade]

It's a nice knife man especially for a first attempt. Shame about the legs. Maybe a few dabs of super glue on the legs before the small resin pour to keep it down?

[@dilshanwijesekara3940]

That's amazing!!

[@djibrilsho6120]

Awesome knife and love the video . Hope I win the knife. You're a inspiration

[@Lachlan1234-p4b]

That looks sick

[@darkkittenlightpuppy8802]

I've made a few knives and have a few tips that may help you now you can take this with a grain of salt because I never had power tools other than a cheap drill I would have shaped the handle before attaching it to the blade then finish it up that and work with epoxy occasionally next time try putting a thin coat of your epoxy of choice on your insect to keep it in the position you want then casting it after the epoxy on the insect cures just my advice

[@johnhubert1883]

This is literally my dream to do

[@oneshotme]

Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up

[@casof97]

Next time make a black and red one with a black widow spider 👌🔥

[@chaosreigns7386]

Spider was dead when you got it...right?

[@Samuraicheesee]

Is there a place online to get these?

[@gheorghitadinu9533]

I notice that u have some small bubles in resin.i leve the resin in the sun or in hot water after i mix it for 5-15 minutes that way the resin become more thin and the bubles come to surface faster...dont know if work with every tipe of resin... Beside that the knife is beautifull

[@tyjohnstone9548]

Been looking for a knife like this eat my 450g T-bone steaks. Shame i missed the giveaway. Damn

[@MakersBestFriend]

Absolutely awesome project as always Jonny! Would love this piece and hope to make some epoxy projects influenced by it! @MakersBestFriend

[@fangsstory5261]

This knife should be called the widows bite I know it is not widow but it sounds cool

[@fangsstory5261]

Oh yeah the missing legs could show the power of the knife a knife so precise it can cut off spider legs with ease with out hurting the rest of the spider

[@sethhoward2060]

Cool knife!

[@matthewm3402]

I wouldn’t get my hopes too high, but winning this knife would mean so much. IG: @killblaze

[@EgoundderRest]

Mal eine interessante Idee. Schade, dass der Spinne 2 Beine amputiert wurden! Den Gebrauchswert des Messers schätze ich nicht als besonders hoch ein, da in härterem Einsatz der Gussteil einer größeren Druck-/Hebelbelastung sicher nicht standhalten wird. Sieht aber gut aus!

[@SCHUYLERDR]

Schuylerdr is my handle! I want to start making knives but I don’t know what I need for the grinder setup would you mind sharing what all you have with your grinder. Thanks in advance!

[@cleanout-netejadexteriors348]

Great content mate! i'm sorry I haven't checked the video before, I would have loved to win the knife

[@kyleredmna8728]

I subscribed and turned on notifications. I would love to get this knife for my grampa because he lost his hunting knife and he can not afford another one.

[@jaxsonmerrill]

@jaxsonxc The knife you just made looks so cool I hope to see more knifes and stuff like that in the future. Getting this knife would mean a lot my dad is a huge knife fan and this would be his Christmas present!

[@trishlyons1269]

I would love this knife to give to my grandpa he is 96 and he doesn’t have long so as his last birthday this would be great ( trishlyons17 )

[@Restorationfurnitue]

*wow great video, thank you friend share*

[@rsbfplayz8245]

Next time don't square off the tang to the blade, it creates a stress point like any other sharp corner, next time you should round it off a bit.

[@user-cy1sp5sd4u]

Awesome😎 wow just wow

[@doubledarefan]

Spider is an insect now.

[@MichaelAlm]

Great build Jonny!!! I’m shocked you wanna give that thing away.... but if you are, I might as well throw my hat in 😉 @almfab (I think you knew that)

[@funkart2011]

i dont have instagram sorry .. but would love to win this knife .. great work on it ..

[@jean-paullarche8044]

Nice work👍👍

[@Suusleepy]

Though i've never forged before i do know some things like how with the tang though u did relize it i think u stayed on the sides to long cuz u need to get all sides evenly and u let it get to cold while working with it and that can make it brittle. Like i said i have no experience i just know about this stuff so please be kind i'm just trying to be helpful.

[@ryoukun7127]

Wow cool knife ima new sub but ur videos are amazing !

[@grahamjamieson7752]

[@yasirarafat6969]

[@junkman6261]

Well I’m subscribed to you but don’t do Instagram. Oh well. Nice knife and good job. Thank you for sharing a build video

[@jasontoney4476]

I noticed most blacksmiths do shape the handle before they attach it to the blade. Does anyone know if theres a purpose for that or does it come down to preference?

[@brunopelletier8613]

what the name of the materiel for knife case

[@MrScrew]

Wow Excellent

[@WendelAlves]

Muito Top essa faca!!

[@modustrial]

This came out amazing! making me think I need to try some forging....Modustrial forge....hmmm, kinda has a ring to it :)

[@akollerp_9153]

A heavier hammer would be better for forging! Im a blacksmith and i use a 2,5kg hammer for forging.

[@nanpho80]

Wow that's nice

[@jerryvillarreal2731]

Very nice knife

[@belotti66]

E' geniale cio' che hai fatto complimenti >___^

[@furyFox-wk4fx]

[@kikkomaki5385]

Dang that knife looks badass! Awesome job once again! Oh and @kikkomaki

[@jg1019]

It's nice but I'd be afraid to hold it, I'm a huge arachnophob
