We are in our 5th week of stage 4 lockdown in Melbourne Australia, in between designing and building my new 2x72 and gas forge I spend some time researching Knifemaking techniques. Your channel is way up on my list for sound practical advise always producing work ready knives. I appreciate that you don’t profess to be an expert at everything but just jump in and have a go, you have a very agreeable attitude. Best of luck and stay safe.

Hey Rex, I'm just north of you in Bendigo and funnily enough have been doing pretty much the same thing! 😄 Got my forge going and am just rounding up all the materials to start on a 2x72. (Got my plans from Brian over at House Work - great channel if you haven't seen it already). I'm almost finished my first knife, made entirely by hand and while its been fun, I've spent most of it wishing I had that grinder haha! All the best man! 👍

Thank you sir. A VFD really comes in handy at that point too. I'll slow it down a good deal when dialing in the plunges. I still don't get them right every time and have to throw that knife away. But I'm getting them right more often now with practice. Getting to the center line nice and straight is the first part of the battle. If that doesn't happen the plunges won't look good no matter what you do! Cheers man!

What I do for the ease of saddle stitching is keep the holes small initially, but right before the stitching I widen them up a bit with a awl. It makes the needles pass through easier and the hole eventually shrinks back down.

Nice video and knife. I need to make a tumbler like yours and figure our how you are using conditioning belts after the maker's mark. It always wipes out the darkening. I use the single use vinyl stencils, a 12v battery charger to etch and ferris chloride to darken. Maybe using AC to darken holds up better?
@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps 4 жыл бұрын
They Walt, I've had this happen with new conditioning belts. The one I'm using is an old belt (1year plus) and it doesn't get deep in the mark like the new ones do. AC could help. If you wash it out you could go back with some brass black to get it dark again.

Very nice work and great video. Question: when you do those last stitches in the sheath and melt the ends, did you tie a knot there? Maybe I missed that. If you don’t, have you ever had the soldered thread ends come loose after use? Also, have you thought of a rivet in the center of the belt loop circle stitch? One with a logo “RB”(?) would look pretty cool 😎

@@RedBeardOps I’ve been watch the way both you and Ricky Wallace do the leather work on sheathes and I’m very impressed overall. Similar techniques but different approaches and finishes to the leather. Personally, I’d feel better both selling or buying a sheath for a using knife with a rivet up at the top corner and at least one rivet in the belt loop just “in case”. By the way I think your stonewash finish and overall finish with that grayish tone is one of the best stonewash looks out there! 👍

really nice, cheers, one question, did i see that you put your makers mark on back of the sheath? wouldn't it look better on the front?, thanks again

Man, good point. I kinda like having it on the back, it's a little more discrete. But I don't think it would look bad on the front!

I've noticed in your videos you groove your holes after drilling them. Why? The "normal" method is to use the groover to create the stitch line before drilling the holes.

I use the groover to create the stitch line before drilling on the front of the sheath. I groove the back after holes. This is my most up to date sheath making - kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5m5iImZlNeXgaM

You do nice work. I like the tumbled finish but I wonder if there is any way to keep the edges matching. What do you think?
@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps 4 жыл бұрын
If you're talking about the spine of the knife there is a way for sure! You just need to use "take down" handles (removable scales); or hold the scales on the knife to profile, take off, finish the blade, glue up, don't go near the spine. I did this process two videos ago on my Damascus knife.... it's just very time consuming. Cheers!

That muffle pipe you use in the forge..is that just a piece of mild steel tubing? Also, does it take a lot longer for your blades to get up to temp when you use it?
@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps 4 жыл бұрын
Yep, just a piece of mild steel. I put a cap on the end of it as well. Once the forge is heated up, it really doesn't take much longer at all since it maintains the heat of the forge.

@@RedBeardOps thanks! I assume you get a much more even distribution of heat along the blade. Mine do seem to heat treat ok, but when I etch them, some spots are darker than others. So I guess my heat treats are not as consistent across the blade as they should be.

That is a great video. What is your main reason for not doing any grinding besides the profile prior to heat treatment. Warping?
@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps Жыл бұрын
Warping, even heat with a forge based heat treat, and only needing to suit up / focus to grind once. I normally only do this on stock removal knives.
@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps 2 ай бұрын
No right or wrong here; I do it both ways. The logic would be more even heating, less warping, and only having to suit up to grind once.
