- Making this folding pocket knife was such an awesome experience - thanks to Master Smith Shawn McIntyre. He invited me and a couple of other guys down to his workshop in Melbourne, for the week to make these stunning little knives. I learned so much and can't thank Shawn enough for such a wonderful time.

Beautifull work gents!! I bow my head to the craftsmanship 💪
Congratulations on getting 1 million subscribers 👏
. ..,
Is it a lockback? Drive they usually have a hook that engages with the back part of the blade? I didn't see it.
This is why I love your channel Neil. You are constantly pushing yourself to learn new creative techniques and methods. You make it look so easy, which is a testament to your talent and skill. Thank you for sharing this adventure on your holiday. You could have very easily done all of this off-camera, and I, for one, greatly appreciate you sharing your experience. Cheers!
Thanks very much Marcus! I reckon that's what I enjoy most about making, learning new techniques and I definitely learned a lot this week. I almost didn't film it and that's why I didn't have my equipment with me but it's quite surprising what you can get out of a phone (even if it isn't the best). :)
@@PaskMakes The quality was great, and it would be hard to tell it was all hand-held phone work if you didn't say something. The image stabilization and resolution on today's phones are amazing. Hard to believe it when I used to have to carry loose change as a young adult in order to make phone calls away from home! 😆
What an awesome week! One that won’t be forgotten. Thanks for joining us Neil and I am already excited for the next one!
It really was and can't wait for the next one! :)
I had no idea so many steps went into it, and how many specialized tools there are for making that process more efficient. Very cool!
I think that's what I enjoyed most Tharemy, using and learning new tools and techniques. :)
That's an exceptionally well equipped knife shop, even without the tools he made himself. Did you notice that the one belt grinder had a secondary belt on the platen to reduce heat build up?
I will point out that you can do this with files and a drill press.
"Stop filming" from the very last second of the video was priceless. 👏👍
My grandfather made knives for a living. He passed away. His name was W.C.Davis
Beautiful knife. The only thing I would add is a lanyard loop to the back of the knife. This way it replicates the airborne pocket knife style.
Neil never feel intimidated by others, because the rest of the world would love to be able to do just some of the stuff you do. Cheers from the west
Thanks very much Darryl! :)
So happy to see you having some 'Me Time'!!!
Sounded like you both learned and enjoyed!!
Awesome jigs!!!
Thank you Master McIntyre!!!
Thanks Johnson! We really did have an awesome time and yes, thank you again Master McIntyre! :)
Gotta love that PID controlled forge. With that temperature control, and having the burner at the bottom to reduce oxidation in the atmosphere at the top, it's no wonder those blades came out with such little surface scale. What an amazing setup!
A knife to be cherished. Do not forget the makers mark, and add No 001
Agreed
Thanks for sharing this, Neil. What a fun time, what a great learning experience.
Glad you enjoyed it Vickie! It really was special week! :)
@@PaskMakes Your knife was flat out beautiful.
The “Horizontal grinding” marks on all edges is something that I teach all young fabricators that I work with because it removes the chances of stress risers in all the parts that are made. This is especially helpful in building race car parts, as that’s what I do for a living. It’s a simple but crucial thing to do to all parts!
What a beautiful knife you have to go with the tremendous memories! Thanks to you for sharing it (and to the others for being a part of it). Glad you had this opportunity; no surprise, though, that you were invited.
Thanks very much June - we definitely made some good memories! Glad you enjoyed it. :)
Great looking Trapper knives, one of my favorite styles!
This was an absolute treat to watch, thank you!
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Nice video, nice knife. I made 109 knives so far working on 110, never a folder. I think this might be the kick in my butt video to finally tackle one.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! It'd be awesome to watch a video of you making a folding knife in your shop.
I can see C.A. glue working for the liners. The rubber tape came undone from a section of sole on one of my Chuck Taylors and I used C.A. glue to put them back together. It's holding even better than I expected.
As a pocketknife enthusiast, this is amazing to see and understand the steps which separate a good pocket knife from a work of art. Thanks for sharing this!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Is it a lockback? Drive they usually have a hook that engages with the back part of the blade? I didn't see it.
@@EbonyPopeit's not a lockback
That "stop filming!" cracked me up :D There's a guy proud of what he does - and rightfully so!
Wow!
Sweet folder!
Alot of work went into making that thing.
Cool man
Beautiful. Forge On. Fab On. Weld on. Keep making. God bless.
While growing up I had a bunch of timber blocks that were all different Aussie timbers, labelled with a black texta.
JAM was always my favourite. Then in my twenties I worked with a guy that brought in a bunch of Jam fence posts from his farm to make wedding gifts.
Loved the smell as it was worked on.
What a fun way to spend a week. The video quality looks fine by the way.
What a beautiful knife!!
Very generous of you to make and post this mate, thanks
Dude. I keep watching this video! This is like the 4th time through. Love it!
Gorgeous knives of heirloom quality!
Glad you like them Sean! :)
I am unsure if you have a regular job as well as your RUclips enterprise but you are a lucky man to be spending your time like this. A great life I’m sure. Thank you for your posts. I look forward to them. Cheers mate. 🇨🇦
Awesome video!! Looks like all of you master knife makers left your egos at the door and worked beautifully together. Keep the great videos coming, Mr. Pask!!
Thanks very much Dean! We all had a fantastic week. I don't think any of the four of us have any sort of ego - we all got on great with lots of sharing of knowledge! :)
What a magnificent work of art.
Thanks very much! :)
That turned out beautiful. The world needs more of this.
Thanks very much Jim! :)
Even with the almost cool conditions in QLD lately, going to Melbourne would have been a stretch, glad to see you survived! Always a good trip when learning something new!
Pask makes me happy. Love your videos
I always thought you had the talent, skill, and patience to make high-level knives.
Awesome!!! Thanks so much for bringing us along.
The process was shown well! From this, I think I could do everything other than the metallurgy.
Thanks Steve! Glad you got something out of it, even if it's just a starting point and some inspiration to look into it more. :)
Awesome. Would love to see a more detailed walkthrough
What a privilege to work with a great craftsman. The knives look beautiful. Thanks for taking us along.
I really was very lucky to be invited - glad you enjoyed it Doug! :)
7:57 a dammit doll is something every maker wouldn’t mind having for those moments when you mess something important up
Fantastic video. Didn't even realise it was filmed on your phone. Thank you so much for sharing. My pulse rate went up when I saw the notification pop up for this. That's how much I look forward to your videos.
Very cool! I'd love to see you do a more indepth video back at your shop.
And I really, REALLY need one of those dammit dolls!
Thanks very much Andi! I really want to make another but not sure I'd make that video too soon, hopefully I'll get to it at some point though. I need a dammit doll too! :)
It was really great to see how the innnerds of the knife work and see it all come together. Thank you for sharing!
Glad you found it interesting - I had very little idea myself before starting this knife. :)
Never have made a knife but learned some cool tricks. Thanks Pesk.
I'm glad I get to see Shawn's shop. I have always enjoyed our all too brief visits.
I was fortunate enough to be in the shop for about 20 minutes while all these amazing makers were under the one roof..... Talk about intimidating 😂😂 knife looks amazing mate well done. Was awesome to meet you in person too
It was great to meet you too! :)
This was incredibly complicated and I feel very lucky I can go buy a knife and not have to learn 10,000 steps to make one! Shawn McIntyre is an amazing Master Smith, and I have no doubt you were a star pupil!
What a top video. Just got a Rockler folding knife kit to make a present for my dad, this is NEXT LEVEL! 👌
Was looking forward to this! Thanks for releasing it!
You make the greatest things on this channel! Great cell phone video, too! Well done!
What a wonderful piece. Great work. I would like to see more of this process.
Absolutely beautiful.
They are awesome thanks for showing
I tried making my own pocket knives.
Sliplock. Yours are of a much more precise fit. I thank you for showing me how it's correctly done.
Man, what a great coverage and team work too! Well done Neil!
Fantastic film. Thank you!
I just found this channel and so far I’m deeply impressed and now I have to go binge watch the rest of your videos.
That was an education, thank-you sir for taking the time to share that with us.
Neil, i hope you are as proud of that knife as I would be had I made it! As a folding knife enthusiast I would give a fingertip to own it! Thanks for sharing your process.
Thanks very much Jay - I am very proud of it for sure! :)
I would love to see a more in depth video of the knife making process for sure! Pretty blade!!
Thanks Jake - I'll hopefully get to it, not too far away. :)
@@PaskMakes yes please!
I loved watching this build and I look forward to one in your shop with all the details. Thank you for sharing
Thanks very much Ryan! :)
That turned out great!
Beautiful!!!! I hope to see more knives.
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing this with us!
"Stabilized wood" is typically imbued with some sort of epoxy resin or similar stabilizer. This is also why CA worked well with it. 👍
Those are some stunning knives!!!! Makes me want to do it myself.
Outstanding work.... really great result.
Great work thanks for showing and describing the process
Great video Neil and very beautiful knives, thanks for sharing 🙏
Incredible making. Learned a ton!
Fascinating! Thank you.
I would love to see you make one full detail or even a series keep up the great work.
Super. Really wonderful detailed mechanical process
Well done. Beautiful.
What a beautiful knives you did .. WOW.. Congrats
Who knew there was such a vibrant maker culture in a country that doesn't allow you to carry a knife in almost any circumstance.
perfect! i love pocketknives.
Absolutely breathtaking craftsmanship. Thanks Neil, for taking the time to put this vid together. BTW congrats on hitting the 1 mil subscribers
Thanks very much! :)
Awesome ! Well Done Sir !
This is so awesome. What an amazing experience and thank you for sharing it.
Thanks very much Henk - I'm very glad you enjoyed it! :)
I mean that’s pretty impressive for your first go at that, I bet there’s a lot of seasoned pros that would put their name on that
Fantastic job 👏
Thanks Neil for the awesome video
Thanks mate that was so cool to watch
Fantastic knives! A precision job for sure.
Many thanks Torbjorn
Amazing! Thanks for posting this
I realize the process was much more in depth than you could show but thanks for the tour. I hope you can make one in your shop at a slower pace.
Awesome video - thanks for sharing !
Now that, my friend, is a *gorgeous* Lanny's Clip. Collector/Heirloom quality by the looks!
Cheers!
It's a beautiful knife, well done!
Shawn's definitely one of the most all-round, talented knife makers in Australia so you're in about the most capable hands around
Absolutely! He's super talented for sure and an all round great guy! :)
Great group!!!
beautiful knives
A very beautiful knife. And the phone video didn't detract. You are making me want to make a knife now.
Fantastic video! Would love a more in depth video on this!
Great content! Again! Thank you!
Awesome video. I made a folder last week and the instruction in this video gives some insight into the changes I can make to increase the quality of my builds.
Beautiful knives. Thanks so much for sharing the workshop build.
Thanks James - glad you enjoyed the knives and Shawn's workshop! :)
Nice work, very interesting video. Thanks for the look! Enjoyed!
Like others, I had no idea the are soooooooo many steps to the final product & the many specialized tools & jigs. The carbide punch-like gizmo for taking any bend out with super light taps was an eye opener for me.
Yeah this was the game changer for me too
