Thanks Anton, happy New Year to you also. Glad you like it! It’s a little different than I’m used to, but certainly offers a lot of utility and he will be happy with that orange handle the first time he sets it down in the woods and forgets where it was!
Sean, another great knife. Another great demonstration of the advantages of your combination of knife design elements. I dropped my mini-Accipiter from chest height onto cement recently, and had similar damage to the tip. It took me a little longer to fix the edge, but I think that was due to my inexperience with sharpening convex edges. Still it was easy to fix. Could you do a more detailed video on the sharpening process with closeups? I think I 'm missing some subtleties in the process.
Glad your knife took well! That’s one of the major advantages of a well tempered carbon steel blade is that can always be repaired. That is a great idea, I think that will be my next video. I get questions often about sharpening and I think I could put out a better video than the first one I did. Thanks Daryl!
@@MarsFireForge Your previous videos were good, and I learnt a lot. My problem is that my sharpening is a bit hit and miss. Sometimes the knife is razor sharp, and sometimes struggles to cut orange peel. I suspect that I'm not stropping it at a great enough angle, as I have been told not to do so on straight bevels because overstropping can dull the knife, especially if you don't get the angle right. I think I have a subconcious habit of stopping short of stropping the edge and removing the burr.
Actually that’s exactly what I was going to say may be the problem. I had a FAlkniven and I could never seem to get it sharp, until I just stropped a little steeper and realized I’d just been polishing the blade not stropping the edge! I’ll do another sharpening video, though, I think I can make it better and also get some better camera angles with my tripod.
I really appreciate your efforts! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Привет, Шон! С Новым Годом! Очень красивый нож получился!
