Slipjoint Folder Spring Tension

[@reggiequinn747]

I'm in the process of making my first slip joint and this video right here is EXACTLY what I needed. Thanks for making this video.

[@Little_River_Forge]

Me too… I’m about to get all my parts together for an actual go at it.

[@Little_River_Forge]

I need this on a loop tomorrow in the shop. This video makes slip joints seem simple, and not impossible

[@PewgetSoundTactical]

Very informative piece. Learned a lot of slip joint mechanics and the most important hole.

Thumbs up for the video, Can you please share the blueprints in the link. It will so helpful.

[@austinkokomainiac7352]

So glad I found this channel as I have started making my own knives. Great to get a break down of how slip joints work. Especially the back spring. I do have a question about a knife I bought. It has good spring tension when opening and in the half stop. But when open the blade is held open but very weakly. It doesn’t take a lot to start pushing it closed, but only for and inch or so. Is that because of how the blade is ground? The blade is not ground well where it meets the back spring. Not level front to back or side to side. Or is the the back spring?

[@EdwinDekker71]

Great video!

[@carmineredd1198]

try putting the tip of the spring to the bottom of the blade pivot hole with the other two pins in place and you will have good tension

[@MrStanwillis]

Thank you 😊😊😊

[@onebad36ford]

Repairs to old knife: What I want to know is how you put the blade pin in with the knife assembled? Are you suggesting you remove the back bolster pin and put it in last?

[@Bushmen918]

Great video. What would you use injunction of the pins ,lets say if you wanted to make removable scales or bolster ?

[@مهدیافشار-س8ح]

Hi teacher, can you send me the photo of the model of the folding knives. thank you

Thanks!!

[@mustamuri]

💫🧸💫🙂👍

[@mitchangelo7254]

interesting !

[@carmineredd1198]

i would have ground out a longer are on the lockbar and not as deep , so as to spread the tension over the bar . your is placing too much tension on the peak of that curve

[@unnikrishnanvasu5433]

Please send me templates

[@eternalvoid8153]

I recently bought a slipjoint and i'm afraid of my spring breaking 💀

[@jwilsonhandmadeknives2760]

Eternal Void unless the spring is extremely stiff or has a ton of lift when the blade opens and closes, that is not likely to happen. I had a knife once that did have a back spring break. It was a marlinspike sailing knife. The spring had way too much lift as the spike rotated.

[@christianvalenzuela225]

Its not clear exposition.... need some draws or animation.... its an good effort, anyway, 😊thanks

[@joferzly]

pro but annoying :)
