Wonder... Too beatiful!!

Te ha quedado de lujo!

Molto bello

Truly fantastic work! In an age of "Tactical" blades, going back to our roots of working with natural materials on tools is more refreshing than ever.

[@jankocak]

nice work

[@jankocak]

very nice, You are clever boy

[@Sheepdog1314]

how did you cut the slot into the handle for the blade?

[@Uncle-Bob]

As seen from minute 5:29, I used the blade of an iron hacksaw, the one you see on the table. I broke it so that it had a tip, I closed the horn in a vice and then .... it took a lot of patience. I am sorry, like a fool I forgot to film that moment.

[@codelocust3297]

très beau ce Laguiopinel ;)

[@JesusLopez-fc7bd]

Uncle bob. make one deer handle

[@Zozzle12]

How was the blade slot cut? There is no mention of this - the hardest step. At 5:25 the slot is being drawn in pencil and at 5:29 slot is magically there. Did I miss something?

[@Uncle-Bob]

You are right. Like a fool I forgot to film that moment. As seen from minute 5:29, I used the blade of an iron hacksaw, the one you see on the table. I broke it so that it had a tip, I closed the horn in a vice and then .... it took a lot of patience.

Gute Arbeit!

[@giacomomoia5821]

Ciao scusa come hai fatto lo scasso in cui si infila la lama quando si chiude il coltello? Grazie

[@Uncle-Bob]

Come si vede dal minuto 5:29, ho usato la lama di un seghetto per il ferro, quella che vedi sul tavolo. L' ho spezzata in modo che avesse una punta, ho chiuso il corno in una morsa e poi.... c'è voluta tanta pazienza....Come uno stupido ho scordato di filmare quel momento, mi spiace.

[@waltermarchiori3000]

Buongiorno mi puoi dire per favore per fare il taglio della lama sul corno come hai fatto grazie che non si vede

[@Uncle-Bob]

Dal minuto 5:29, si può capire che ho usato la lama di un seghetto per il ferro, quella che vedi sul tavolo. L' ho spezzata, in modo che avesse una sorta di punta che potesse "incidere" il corno; dopo di che, ho chiuso il corno in una morsa e ... c'è voluta tanta pazienza... Purtroppo, stupidamente, preso dalla concitazione, ho scordato di filmare quel momento, mi spiace.

[@cutenose38]

I love the handle its got a sub from me

[@barrym.5846]

Nice project. But you left out what I thought would be the hardest part... how did you get the blind slot for the blade to recess into... What tool?

[@loydg1]

Thank you for posting this video. I think this is a phenomenal rework of a classic pocket knife. Your skills and imagination leave me in awe.

[@A_Meek_lake_Dweller]

You have created a beautiful heirloom! : )

[@J.sh_CDN]

Great video mate, this was really relaxing to watch, and an amazing finished product

[@danielnilant8779]

Looks extremely professionally made. Very nice mod.

[@CazayPescaBICHO]

Muy buena la modificación, saludos

[@quecomadridgarciagarcia7078]

Es una copia de la navaja española.....

[@gustavoalonzo7056]

No, es una navaja tradicional francesa, que es similar a la española. Pero el sistema de traba es totalmente diferente.

[@lupussolitair8010]

Bravo.... Bel lavoro , mi piace anche l'idea del bottone.

[@nickjanczak9665]

I really like what you have done there but can't help wonder how much of the strong part of the antler you had to remove to make it fit the original ferrules? Perhaps it might snap at that joint in the future?

[@Uncle-Bob]

Well... I hope it will not...

[@nickjanczak9665]

@@Uncle-Bob I'm probably wrong, there's maybe plenty of strength in the centre part of the antler too. Anyway, it looks like a beautiful knife and you did a brilliant job there!

[@bigronxxxx]

You did a great job on the new handle thanks for sharing it with us.all the best to you and yours

I want one! How much?

[@spencerlarsen5970]

Where did you get the end cap? Did you machine it? I’m looking to find an end cap for a knife I am making.

[@Uncle-Bob]

Well... that's a simple button made of metal, I bought it in a haberdashery. You can see it better in this video : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoirdKGhotKkpZo at minute 6.40

[@luisnavajo4598]

En el minuto 8.49 se ve que la punta de la hoja sobresale del mango...¡Peligro..!

[@Uncle-Bob]

Es verdad, tienes toda la razón. Me di cuenta e, incluso si no puedes verlo en el video, inmediatamente hice el surco más profundo ... de hecho, en el minuto 9:03, la cuchilla ya no sobresale.

[@user-Ronin7491]

Хорош,но Я бы кончик не срезал

[@filippomariaberio317]

Stupendo, se li realizzasse su commissione sarei il primo a mettermi in fila. Bel video.

[@Uncle-Bob]

Onestamente... ci ho anche pensato; perchè no, unire al diletto, e alla soddisfazione, un piccolo guadagno. Ma, da privato, non saprei come gestire la vendita/spedizione di "armi".

Carino il coltello, peccato manchi la ripresa sul come fare la sede della lama.

Ciao Bel video e bell'idea.. Come hai usato per smussare il bottone in fondo al manico?

come puoi vedere al minuto 10:02, ho usato carta vetrata... di diverse grane, sempre più sottili.

Muito bom Onde consigo comprar esse sistema de trava ?

[@Uncle-Bob]

As facas Opinel podem ser encontradas facilmente on-line, mas também no decatlo. A buzina, no entanto, eu a comprei em uma loja de animais ... é vendida para as gengivas dos cães ... mas acho que é muito melhor usar como cabo de faca ...

[@adamserfati5003]

Ce n'est pas solide

[@Uncle-Bob]

eh bien, la corne est dure comme un os ... mais quoi qu'il en soit, je suivrai votre signal et je ne l'utiliserai pas pour "batonner" ou "hacher" ... 😉
