excellent! Where are you getting the titanium bar from?
This is fantastic, but the music is dominating the audio.
AWESOME video, thank you, I want one!
Nicely done !
Where do I send my money 💸
whats the weight difference between the Ion with holes and without holes? Also are the volt platform blades all the same weight or are they different depending on shape? thanks man! awesome balis
The weight difference is pretty minimal between the two handles it’s more of an ascetic difference. That being said the blades do have a difference in weight, the JT being the lightest and the KU the heaviest.
what is the dimension between the handle pieces supposed to be?
Great vid, thanks for sharing the process you've developed!
Yea man I'm suprised it seems like esp and franken forge look good om gonna buy one thr voltaic. As long as the tolerances are good I'll be happy. Bcbone time the rock hinderez knife had blade rub and it costs 425$
really cool video and processes. The amount of work going into the trainer is kinda insane. High quality steel, heat treatment and finishing.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
This is super interesting to me. Thanks for sharing your videos. Please continue :D
it's cool that you show exactly why your knives cost the way they do, i'm not sure i've seen someone else put up the statistics of exactly why knives cost the way they do
Glad you enjoyed it! Ya they’re a lot more work to make than most people realize.
That dcb style blade is sick
why not assemble chanwich like sandwich?
They’re assembled very similarly, Chanwhich just has less parts.
Weight install starts at 02:30
As much as i love this design absolutely beautiful, i don’t want to risk the uk with it because it is expensive , sorry 😃
I like both!
I only see s single problem with it, its not one of your amazing butterfly knives
Question, do you harden the blades befor grinding them down? wondering because blades tend to warp and change alittle when quenching but it'd be realy hard on any milling tools to grind them after theyre hardened
I grind both before and after ht. I leave about 5thou to remove after ht. The grinding wheels are very hard and don’t have an issue with hardened steel.
Very nice! Did you change the detent position? It looks like the blade clears the detent earlier, now.
Yep I did, good eye!
looks amazing 🔥
definitely prefer the new design. Im probably just a bad flipper but that part would pinch my fingers harder than any other knife on the old design. I upgraded to the new handles and couldn't be happier!
This series of videos will be invaluable to aspiring machinists/knife makers. You posting your whole learning journey is incredible. Thanks for doing this. There will no doubt be many people who ultimately owe their careers to you. You’re the Linux of machinists. 👍🏻
Wow, that gold!!!
What was the total time involved for the 20 blades?
Nice design all around
Cool vid, is silver in the anodization spectrum or are all silver ones just raw?
The silver ones are just raw.
Get down with the thickness
Lol
That finger has got to be the elephant in the room?! What happened?
I had a little oopsie with a bandsaw…
@@frankenforgeblades Uff. At least you still have the finger!! BTW... I often wear nitrile gloves in videos to stop idiot commentators asking about my fingers.. true .. 😉
Very informative video. What type of coolant are you running in your Tormach? Any experience with synthetics?
I like the second much more. Smoother, not as blocky, more streamlined.
You didn’t explain how precise they have to be, you just explained how precise that one is…
+0/-.0002” is the tolerance I go for. Yes it can be looser but the system starts to get play in it after that. Every .0001 under spec noticeable effects play. so while a blade that’s .005 under will still “work” it’s almost unusably bad for this application. Sorry for not summing that up in the video i sometimes forget people can’t read my mind.
I dream of flipping some of your products
It looks like it should have more ring than it does
Dude that is awesome. I haven’t had the privilege to try your stuff yet, but I have heard great things. I hope I get an opportunity to try one of these. Do you ever do pass arounds?
Thanks! I don’t usually do pass arounds.
I'll comment so you'll get recommended to me more!
Thanks!
Ooohhh used go have those knives i love them i wanna start with that trainer
love your designs man !
Thanks!
Dang that is a nice knife great job creating it!! I would buy it and make videos on it but I’m broke right now lol
Right? I’m going to start posting more content next week, because I just bought his titanium Voltaic knife!
Your content is amazing, thanks for such an transparent and in-depth explanation of of your process ❤
Glad you enjoy it!
Would you share your titanium source? My previous supplier has 1”x1/2” bar stock but can’t get it now.
For ti I mostly use PTG titanium but that’s all to order. for pre cut stock I’ll usually look at tiger titanium, or TMS.
@@frankenforgebladesThanks, I'll take a look. I used to get it from Tiger, but they don't have that size and he didn't know when they would get it again.
hehe im gonna do this for work one day
When are you going to start offering the skeletonized folders?? Those are neat...I might get me one! I wonder if you could machine a punch and die for the blades, then take sheet steel and punch out the blades, harden, then grind? It would take a crapton of force though to punch out something like that maybe
Hey! The proto blade was skeletonized cuz it makes the printing easier, sadly the actual blade won’t look like that. As for punching out blades that’s something that’s usually done at a larger scale. I’m going to stick to machining for the time being, It would be a fun project though.
3.5 Ft LB is what 8-32 steel pitbull are spec'ed for: 1/4-20 14.5 FT LB the impact drill is perhaps overkill
I turn the drill down to a pretty light setting. It looks really aggressive but it’s close to spec.
Nice man! Process is looking good 👍
Thanks!
Never seen a knife being made, but this is pretty cool I figured there was some sort of jig for flipping it. Didn't think you full on made an assembly for it though. That was neat to see. Kinda makes me wanna try, but I need a better mill fr 😂
Thanks! I’m glad you found the process interesting. In terms of fixturing this is reasonably simple for the knife world, some other makers pallets are absolutely insane.
is that a tormach 1100? thats the name of your mill cnc right?
It’s a 770mx. It’s slightly smaller than the 1100.
If you don't want to use coolant you can use a little dab of kerosene or wd40 and apply it with a chip brush. Should give you a good surface finish too.
I'm excited for this knife
so cool seeing the process man, well explained too
Thanks!
