Just finished this one up for your viewing pleasure, the blade was forged from an end cut off of a Damascus billet I forged a couple years ago, I forged the blade itself in Alaska for practice and never really thought about finishing it, and had forgotten about it until I was going through some things in my workshop and found it still wrapped in the bubble wrap with some other blanks down behind my workbench. The guard is textured mild steel, and the handle is made from black walnut that was a failed wooden spoon project my wife and I were working on a couple years back. So all in all this knife was made from scraps that normally would have been cast aside and forgotten. I'm pretty happy with the results. #Bowieknife #metalart #forging #forgedinfire #bladesmithing #knifemaking

Hello everyone and welcome back to the forge, In this week's video I show how to make a basic knife using a file. To do this project you do not need a forge, just some simple tools and you will be well on your way to making your first knife. Everything in this video can easily be done with a cheap harbor freight 1x30 grinder or even an angle grinder with flap disks. I appreciate you watching and if you would HIT that SUBSCRIBE button and RING the notification bell to be informed when my latest content posts. Steps I used in making this knife: 1.Steel selection, I used a Nicholson file 2.Draw or print a template you want your knife to look like 3.Use the template to mark your design onto the steel, I do this with a cheap can of black spray paint. 4.Cut your steel and grind in into the shape of your knife. 5. Temper your steel at 425-450F for two hours, this should give you the desired hardness you need. 6.spray your edge with spray paint or color it with a sharpie and scribe a center line using a drill bit, height gauge, or caliper. Do this on a flat surface such as a piece of tile or granite. 7.Grind your bevels. 8.Anneal the tang to make it soft enough to drill, this can be done with a cheap hand torch using a vise as a heat sink. 9.Drill pin holes. 10.find some handle material and use the masking tape and super glue method I show in this video then drill the holes through the wood. 11.Cut fronts of handle material where it mates up to the blade area sand it to shape. 12.Glue on scales and clamp them down, use acetone to clean up any epoxy overflow on your knife. 13.Grind handle to shape, knock off the sharp edges on the handle and then smooth out with your belt sander, grinder with flap disks, or file. 14.Apply a treatment to your handle such as Axe wax. 15.Sharpen your knife to your desired sharpness. 16.ENJOY YOUR WORK!!!
