[@johnanon658]

@@UKBladeshow Sir, FWIW, it occurs to me that if the distance from spine to edge is not consistent down length of blade, this method will make the bevel angle change from heel to tip. This is not necessarily bad, and the transition will be gradual and look fine, if it is even noticeable, but this will make for different grind height w the actual edge bevels. In extreme cases, on blade w extremely tapered pattern form, this would require change of geometry of edge bevels as well.

I’m so pleased to find you again Tobias, the last time I seen your work was on British Blades , few years ago now . I’ve met some of the uk knife makers and was really impressed by the way they did their grinds , Grinding by hand was always seen as the holy grail of knife making . I watched stuart Mitchell of Sheffield grind a knife freehand on a stone turning away from him . I was in awe . Obviously stuart has a life time of experience in his fingers and the blood in his veins is from an history of family of knife makers . I do miss the massive resource that British Blades had to offer , full of knowledge and a catalogue of knife making . Good luck my friend I really enjoyed your video and precise description of your experience.

I received my jig yesterday and used it for the first time today and it’s absolutely a game changer. Bevel grinding has been the most time consuming step in the process for me and this jig just makes the process fly! The detailed instructions on how to set it up that I received via email are very detailed and comprehensive. There’s even a mathematical equation for determining the distance of the jig from the belt in order to achieve the desired outcome! If anyone is sitting on the fence on getting one of these, don’t! Highly recommended! Also fantastic customer service from the team at Tobin Machines.

Personally I would love to see a close-up slow mo video doing Forge welds. What the surface looks like when ready to come out of the fire versus the Sentra being too cold. what it looks like setting the weld Softly versus too hard. My students asked for this we often. It does not seem like there is a good video like this out there as no one is willing to either sacrifice a camera lens to flux splatter or heat or they do not have enough zoom on the camera to get in that close. Keep up the great work guys. Loving this Channel more and more all the time

You are right, it would be rather challenging to film that; maybe a great zoom lens would do or have some a transparent glass that would shield the heat (does this even exist hahaha!) but yeah, that’d be a nice scene to film!

[@krissteel4074]

Lot of really innovative stuff in this one, I used to do freehand for a few years and I still will for really complex blades that basically, you can't do any other way. But its something I consider very 'danger zone' to do after a long day of grinding out knives, your muscle memory will hang around, but the concentration goes to hell and accidents happen. Never used jigs though I'm pretty much a block of teflon push-stick grinder as I like the control and amount of pressure I can apply in combination with belt speeds to make sure nothing overheats. The little 'step' insert on the rest though is a really top notch idea as anyone that's done the old 'it got dragged in between the platen and the work rest' trick can attest, its really not a good trick at all. Very cool episode

[@tobiashangler]

Thanks! I never tried Teflon blocks but that sounds interesting. Where do you get them?

[@krissteel4074]

@@tobiashangler I usually buy them on Aliexpress just in a little 6 x 150 x 150 mm sheet and lop off an inch-30mm section with the hacksaw as required for a new one. They last a pretty long time if you don't feed them into a 36grit belt too often :) Don't think they were very expensive, I know they do sell the same sort of stuff on ebay as skid bars for trailers if you feel the need for a really big chunk of the stuff as well. But the nice thing about it is that PTFE wont deform under moderate-high heat, it slides well across the blade and self-polishes. On a stick I'll usually have a dead-flat section on one end for broad pressure to get the flats of a bevel put down and a rounded end which I use for really fine, more precise pressure to the work material as you work up to the final taper of a bevel geometry. Just as an afterthought, if you didn't want a bearing for your jig set up (and I do like that a lot) is you could make a piece of teflon in there as a circular roller. Maybe a half-inch, 15mm wide section or even a variety of width and thicknesses to suit the pressure grinding application. Just a thought on that seeing as bearings are great but they're also a bit expensive to find the ones you want in a size.

[@tobiashangler]

@@krissteel4074 i am very happy with the bearings but they of course also don't like being fed i to the belt so the teflon would have some advantage in that case. They bearings really aren't too expensive if yiu buy them in packs of 10 or more and i currently started to tape them with a bit of electric tape which i can easily replace if i slip into the belt slightly

[@krissteel4074]

@@tobiashangler The alternative is getting some round-stock of Delrin and turning out a centre bore to match the axle on the jig. It is from memory quite a bit cheaper and has some very good compressive qualities as well as being hydrophobic. In terms of temp it will stand up to about 150-160C before deforming. Might be an option to look at one day if you figure turning them up on a lathe could work out.

[@kokos54632]

Amazing video ! So informative . I have tried similar techniques but never got as good results with free grinding. That little shelve is brilliant.

[@UKBladeshow]

Cheers buddy! These guys are definitely revolutionising knife-making for the whole community! Thanks for watching!

[@jameslmorehead]

One thing I would recommend with the arm of the grinding jig is to put a pressed on metal partial toroidal sleeve on the ball bearing. That way, you don't have the bearing applying a point load with a flat face following it. The flat face would be the natural place the material would want to run against the bearing. Having no flat face would give better control over the force vectors. This effect is very noticable when using the plywood block to press the blade into the belt when grinding the hollow grind. The blade rotates as the stroke is taken, pulling the cutting edge away from the guide and more closely matching the flat of the plywood.

[@jacknissen6040]

makes a lot of sense

[@jeremynedrow7003]

The barring pressure tool could do with a stop on the pivot to keep it from over rotating into the belt and maybe a rubber ring around the barring for some extra grip on the knife.

[@rainmoney2007]

Great ideas on the jig!

[@minjin0259]

If you took that jig and put grooves in the base (horizontal portion), you could space those grooves that that when the spine of the knife is in the groove, as it leans forward into the belt, you get a certain angle. If the stock isn't consistent enough to allow for multiple grooves, you could always put different thickness spacers at the front of the jig so that the spine of the knife is a consistent distance from the belt, thereby holding the knife's edge at the same angle.

In an ideal worls a maker should master a few different grinding methods for different knife types. I look forward to try out Tobias method.

Where can I buy your jig from you?

[@paulheadford65]

As a novice knife I maker welcome this true to reality video, I am bespoke joiner and used to make tools and many jigs grinding cutters free hand if the jigs are not correct and time taken to make properly you will need new fingers or worse, picked up what was left of foremans hand because he didn't follow correct procedures. Stay safe never speaking to people when grinding nobody should be closer than a metre keep focused at all times, sorry for being a old fart but I have seen to many accidents if needed take the day to make correct jigs and working practice stuck to religiously boring as it is makes the difference between a idiot and a proper skilled person regardless of experience rant over. Ps loved the video very .Good

I would very much like this jig…

[@larsmurdochkalsta8808]

There might be very good reasons why this wouldn't work, but has anyone considered using something kind of like a rifle sling? Basically something you could clamp to the work piece and then wrap around yourself so that you can brace and stabilize your upper body against this strap well your lower body and back get to stabilize in a very natural position? I mean like it doesn't make much sense as a thing to do, but it just seems like it would solve some of the problems if you were going to hand grind
