what process are you using to put your logo on and how durable is it?

Or you could have …
Or you could have bought annealed steel lol, for about the same price as a file new, you can get annealed 1095, and then you actually know what steel you are working, so when you heat treat it you do it right and dont mess it up totally, by treating it incorrectly. (i.e. treating a water or air hardening steel in oil, or the oposite way around. For instance W-2 is a very common steel for files in the US, which is a water hardening, but it could also be just 1095, or any number of other steels)

Actually, I am in the process of making a knife from an old file, annealing was very simple, I did the simple build a massive fire with the file at the bott and let it burn out overnight way, it’s crude, but worked, I am almost done the knife!

It is likely going to be easier for you to spend $15 to get a length of 1095 from Admiral steel that is already annealed (get the CRA not the HR), than to try to work on a hardened file. Unless you can anneal the file yourself, I would really suggest buying some annealed steel.

whew…yikes thats a bite out of your wallet eh lol. I guess you need good quality belts though. I think my first knife is gonna end up being little more then a fancy shank XD lol.

I use a “Bader III” grinder. Total for package was close to $2500 for everything. Belts are the real cost. Each belt is around $4 and I can go through several on one knife.

I send my blanks …
I send my blanks out to Paul Bos for professional heat treating… The pre-cut question -> i meant that i start with a piece of steel and grind/profile it to the shape I want (I may profile several at once, then send out to be heat treated). When they return, I start the knife (like in the video)… Re: files -> I don’t remember which ones I used, whatever was around (very hard work – get a grinder..lol).

Do you heat treat …
Do you heat treat your own knives? Also, when you say that you get your blades pre-cut, are they cut to the shape of whatever design/knife you’re making? Finally, when you worked with files, which ones did you find most essential? Mill, Flat, bastards, seconds, smooths, rounds, double or single cut? I’d like to start with files for now, just to learn the geometry of blades without risk of destroying them with power. Any answers will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the video.

Then, instead of …
Then, instead of being able to read relevant and meaningful info about the topics in the video, I am stuck reading half assed responses and absurd questions from the idiots who left negative comments. I learn nothing of value that way. If you’ve nothing positive to say about a video, then please keep your comments to yourself or try to make a video you think is better (likely never happen). This is a great knife making tutorial.

I’m new to knife making and need to absorb as much material as possible. This video is one of the best on youtube and the knife he produces in it is very nice and extremely functional.
The moment that you knobs start leaving negative comments on great videos like this one, the makers/authors stops responding to questions, which results in less info to new knife makers.
So, please, stop w/the negative comments, unless the video you’re watching is truly horrible or is made in poor taste.

how much is a grinder? the one you used for most of the work on the blade and handle, looks like you could pretty much make a knife with just that and some files/a metal saw o.o
