MAKING TANTO KUKRI Part 3

[@trastorna0414]

This is simply perfection...hypnotic job. I want to sell one of my kidneys to buy that blade

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Keep your kidney in case one of them fails. You need it more than the knife.

[@johnbulzone5650]

You have true vision and skill. I like that you are making original pieces and styles that no one is making or even thinking of. I started bladesmithing about a year ago and you inspire me to keep testing my boundaries of what I can make.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

The name of the game is to make something no one made before and if they did show how it's done.

[@CALCOBRA94]

Nothing like a work of art put to the test, not just an eye candy

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@canusakommando9692]

I've been studying knives and weapons of all kinds for over 40 years . I'm a weapons expert and have been an Advanced Black Belt in several Martial Disciplines for over 30 years. I may be getting old but I learned and practiced my disciplines in the Martial Sciences during a time without the Internet so everything I learned had to be done the Old Fashioned way. By reading from actual books and coming home after a 12 hour day with many broken bones with bruises from head to toe. It was a much better time with actual contact amongst each other . I just wish I had the skill of a true craftsman such as yourself. I may have had great skill with the weapons at hand but I wish I had equal skill at personal manufacture of these tools. Once again I am in awe of your skill Sir. Thank you for the lesson.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

I greatly appreciate your compliment. I strive each day to get better with each knife I make. I just posted a new video. Feel free to check it out.

[@dmitrijsmatvejevs3621]

Конечно большой мастер, по факту напильником сделать такой нож...👍😎

[@royrosete7085]

a highly skilled genius.... no robotics can duplicate this piece of art.... one of a kind..... God bless.

[@rafaelfacas]

Your work is almost perfect....is perfect. dont stop

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you

[@theoracle3837]

Are you like a pro knife maker or something because I can't come close to that kind of legendary knife making in my shed. What a legend.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

And I don't even use a shed ;-) Thanks for the compliment. I am still learning how to make knives.

[@gredarthd5292]

Hello this is one of the most beautiful knives I have seen, I know that the one in the video was sold but could you tell me how much it would cost to have you make one with sheath for me ?

[@SLAVIKTELY]

This one was sold for one thousand dollars.

[@Swenglish.Gaming]

In my opinion that is very underpriced for such a beautiful piece. I know it was stock removal but it makes my top three list for nicest blades, especially that handle work. Good job keep up the good work.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Swenglish, I absolutely agree with you. I only profited around $400 from it. Just the leather sheath cost me $250 and 4 hours of driving to and from the leather guy.

[@Swenglish.Gaming]

Wow, that is some dedication. I admire your work especially with such little in the way of profit. I am a huge fan of your craft and recently started doing a bit of stock removal as a hobby myself. Being the first channel I watched centered around bladesmithing, I consider you to be my main inspiration for starting it and I greatly appreciate your work.

[@luukheinz160]

You Sir, are a true Craftsman ! i'm a knive & and Swordsmaker myself using basic tools and i really enjoyed your precision and in between cleaning of your gear. you are setting some pretty high standards. Respect.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you. Means a lot coming from you.

[@richq11]

Beautiful... the handle looks incredible!

[@albertf.9770]

J’ai rarement vu un travail aussi bien fait jusqu’au moindre détail de finition rien n’est laissé au hasard et le manche est d’une beauté extraordinaire sans doute le plus beau que j’ai vu de toutes les vidéos sur le sujet encore bravo 👏👏

[@arturolex8725]

Make the kukri from Far Cry 4 please. You are a Master!

[@m1ndtr1p]

Not a big fan of the tanto shaped kukri, but you did a hell of a job! I especially love the handle, well done man! It's nice to see people pay so much attention to detail, it shows you truly have a passion for your work and the skill to match...

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you for such wonderful remarks. I appreciate that .

[@MarktheAirsoftPrimate]

Well, that’s one of the most beautiful anything’s I’ve ever seen.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you

[@rashikshmen6404]

смотрю и восхищаюсь твоим произведением мастерства...!!! супер, руки от Бога...

[@Lesopitek1]

Мощно, брутально и просто красиво! Респект автору!

[@TristanDare]

Great vid. I've been knifemaking for a little while now, and this vid will change the way i think about knife making forever. This is a beutiful knife, i just can't get enough of it! This vid has inspires me greatly, and i wanna thank you for it. Great vid, i look forward to more of your builds!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

You are welcome. With each knife you have to push your limits to try something out more complicated than the previous knife. If you don't then you will be stuck on the same level.

[@ЕгорЧураков-б2б]

Реальная цена этого ножа? The real price of this knife?

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Этот был продан за тысячу, второй был продан за тысячу шестисот доларов.

[@Revenant483]

Dayam Slavik!!!!! The handle itself is a work of art and then you add that awesome blade design--- WOW!!!!

[@74791joz]

Вы откуда ? Классные фильмы и работы у вас!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Калифорния

[@sticksnstonespatriot1728]

That is the most badass blade that I've ever seen.... You blended the two blades I love the most Kukri and American Tanto

[@allancordeiro7330]

Qual o preço,onde encontro uma dessa no Brasil?

[@ريماستيوب-د4ض]

You're not just a KUKRI knife maker ... you're a real artist.

[@3751608]

очередная красивая работа!

[@tattoosmc]

You sir have talent for blades. Beautiful blade, unique, excellent finish, and amazing craftsmanship. Very interesting approach of combining two different blade styles into one.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you Ryan.

[@shelbyglazer3948]

keep it up! look forward to all of your projects

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you sir.

[@tiborfoldi6762]

Tely this is not a knife anymore! Your knifes are not knifes anymor! This is ART!! 👏👏👏

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Wow, thank you.

[@dmitrijmausov6406]

Долголетия и процветания.

[@ausfox855]

It's mesmerizing to watch you produce such craftsmanship.

[@aleistervillaseca438]

Make a katana!

[@grantjones4038]

Wow Mr Tely, just wow. That build was a masterclass of technique. The handlework is exceptional and the approach you have to the unconventional blade grind was really great to watch. Thank you for posting these builds up man.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

You are welcome.

[@dmanm85]

Can't even put a realistic value on that knife.. crazy.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@dmanm85]

No problem man. I know it sold, so that was an exaggeration lol but all your knives are wicked and I don't know how you would put a price on it without shorting yourself. I know some Bob Kramer blades are like $5 - 10K, although he makes his own ingots, how do you roughly come up with a price?

[@SLAVIKTELY]

3 river blades has a video how he prices his work. It is worth watching.

[@garrettjohnson6382]

Lol I’m rewatching this video three years later and ig something that I missed last time is the way that you filed into the handle a little extra and the left side for your index finger. It’s a simple thing but it really can improve the grip of the knife and how comfortable it is. I love your videos and I love the patience you have to take the time and go the extra mile on all your projects. Beautiful!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

I do remember that grip. Most comfortable handle I have made so far and the Seraga knife had a nice feel to it too.

[@qasd48]

That's a gorgeous looking knife, and it looks like a very challenging geometry. Very nice job!

[@LordMordrag]

BRAVO SIR! BRAVO! I comment verry rarely on a youtube video, last time being over a month ago also on one of your videos. By the time it took you to upload another knife making one I knew it will be great but you exceded my expectations yet again. The fact that you show all the processes, the attention to detail, the preparations you take, materials you use, even the way that you clean your mess makes you videos informative, show your high skill really good, the passion for what you do and also makes your videos suprisingly educative. Please never lower the quality of your makings and videos. I hank you yet again, best wishes !

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Wow, thank you for such a wonderful comment. A lot of people are asking me to make tutorial videos but from what you described to me I do not need to do that because you shown me that I make everything available in my videos without talking. One more time thank you.

[@Kman31ca]

I'm honestly amazed at your attention to detail, and your designs are astounding! As well as the fact you're doing this in your spare time. That's not just making a knife, that's pure art in my opinion. That's a masterpiece! Amazing work, look forward to watching some more of your builds.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@SaintBigAl]

the handle on this Tanto Kukri would look amazing on the Seraga!You do amazing work,keep it up.

[@Tyme_Whyrlwynd]

This is BY FAR one of the best builds I've ever seen in my life. How you make knives like these is just... Outstanding. NEVER stop making these, cause your channel is awesome.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

From the bottom of my heart, thank you very much for this compliment.

[@adiadi5948]

Hands down, most beautiful and intricate blade build ive seen yet, thank you for this viewing experience! Also if you dont mind me asking, how much did it go for?

[@SLAVIKTELY]

I sold this one for one thousand dollars.

[@adiadi5948]

Worth every penny!

[@elminster298]

Gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. I can't help but feel like it needs a steel pommel though. Kukris are of course supposed to be blade heavy but with how much steel you removed from the "tang" I think a steel pommel would have balanced it out a bit better. Fantastic work and I love watching you work.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you sir.

[@badjuju6563]

Thats got to be the most beautiful handle I have ever seen. Unusual blade.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@8thsinner]

Okay, where do I start, I love khukuris and thought that a tanto version though maybe gimmicky, the build process, style, video editting, all of it is simply a joy to watch. I really love almost everything about it, I have only one gripe that I think a 50 degree edge is fine for the chopping part of the blade, traditionally parangs and khukuris had sharper base edges for carving and sharper tips for skinning, so I think you should have dropped those edges to 34 degrees. But I mean that handle, and I hate plastics of all sorts btw looks amazing and the pins simply beautiful. I look forward to browsing your others.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

The handle is made from wood.

[@Traderjoe]

Its great to see something like this made, and even better to see it used! I have seen some makers who make basically art knives, but you actually chopped with it, which is great and what the tool really is intended for. Great job!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Trust me, I had to clean it up again and hand sand it back to remove the scratches. Kind of sucks to redo the sanding part again because it is very difficult to sand it when the handles are on.

[@unmitigatedaudacity]

Gorgeous work, Tely. I'm blown away by your attention to detail. And it was great to see your son learning the craft alongside you. When will you guys do a build of his design?

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you. His design? He was just trying it out. I do not think he liked it. He is more into electrical sphere. Give him wires and his face lights up.

[@SolomonKane71]

Not only do you have great vision in designing these, and great skill in executing the work, but you also take excellent care of your tools and workspace. The signs of a true master of his craft. I wish I could afford a sample of your work.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you CA

[@adityavarma193]

I always thought this knife would be more cool looking than practical. You really proved me wrong at the end! great video.

[@christobaliancantu7112]

This is the second build I've seen you make and I'm subscribing! Gonna check out the rest of your knife builds! Really fascinating!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you. Well, then start with my first videos because back then I was not that good at making knives.

[@brucelightfoot6679]

I'm going to start off by saying I am impressed by guys who forge weapons. That does not mean I am not impressed with his design. But he is hands down the best handle maker I have ever seen. The color, wood choice and pattern lay out of your handles are something of extreme beauty. I watched all three parts and when I saw the green fiberglass I was like "huh?". Your choice inn colors, how you shape your handle and just everything about it is world class design. What a beautiful piece you make.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you for the compliment

[@ramydesoky]

oh my god !!! i watched tens of videos about knife making because i love it so much but honestly you simply the best and the master !! god bless you sir

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you very much sir. I am glad you found something interesting in this channel.

[@ronverhiest4801]

I'm a beginning knife maker with about the same tools available as you but damn...what an impressive skills you have!! If I could make a knife only half as nice, I would settle for it. Respect!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you Ron.

[@WilbertRamos777]

Props to you I've never seen someone work with this passion the results are amazing.. I wish I could own one of them beautiful knife you make God bless...

[@MiddletoM]

Truly amazing. Probably the best creation I've seen and I spend a hell of a lot of time watching videos like this.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you very much.

[@overdoneone]

Beautiful! Your care and respect for your tools is outstanding and is reflected in the quality of your work...

[@bretthildebrandt9250]

I love all detailed work and the time you put into making that knife. You have inspired me with new ideas for the canes and walking sticks that I make.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thanks.

[@sphaxxhaps3628]

Love your attention to detail and the concept of this blade itself is pretty amazing, super nice job, looking forward to your other creations when I have more time!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@jackharkins2722]

Easily one of the best blades ive seen crafted on youtube

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@justinstephens5167]

just now trying to dip my toes into knife making and that probably one of the best pieces ive seen yet.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@Tom-bk2yc]

this woodgrip is godly, so insanely beautiful. a true masterpiece.

[@clayface6485]

not many people on youtube deserve praise for their work ( i have a rather high standard when it come to work in general ) but you sir! let me stay that ,that tanto/kukri was not only a great mix but that was some masterful work truly if i met u in public i would need to shake your hand

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you for the compliment.

[@_danielshalev]

One of your best build in my opinion. I like this style a lot! Excellent job Slavik!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@WalkingOnWater86]

That's not a knife......That is a perfect piece of art :O Thank you for sharing!

[@ivancabral9777]

Really a beautiful knife and much better your attention to detail and quality. Nice video.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you.

[@SharpWorks]

That is amazing craftsmanship! Everything about the knife is beautiful!

[@DreamPen]

You're a true craftsman, sir. The precision and passion you put into this knife really shows. Bless you and more power to you.

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you very much.

[@jdmeesey]

Amazing work! This is the level of craftsmanship that I hope to achieve eventually! And so well you demonstrate just what a good set of files, a lot of planning, and even more patience can accomplish!! Your knifes are so distinct, the only thing that I can compare it to is the precise and refined art and inventions of Da Vinci! I can't wait to see what you do next!

[@SLAVIKTELY]

Thank you...with time you can be there too. Da Vinci?!!! Wow, thanks for such high praise.

[@drplastic27]

Higher quality than what you can find at most knife shops!

[@alanaspopo1955]

With out a doubt you sir are an artist! Just discovered you today so now I must follow your beautiful work or should I say art!

Very fine work, I'm impressed with the attention to detail that you put into it; and the 'fit and finish' are the sign of a true Craftsman.....

Thanks. I try to do my best to keep it clean.
