  • In this video Bob starts grinding on a blade that will become a 2020 Dozier Classic Hunter - no longer available.
    This is part 2 of the Bob Dozier Knife Shop Tour. It is pretty loud so headphone users beware. I have edited the captions so they should be more or less accurate.

    If there’s anybody here looking at this and thinking, that looks easy, it ain’t!
    I’ve watched a number of videos now showcasing very ‘experienced,’ knife makers like Mr. Dozier, and the confidence in which they approach the grinder, the muscle memory at work, the sheer skill at play is an absolute delight to watch!
    Go look at some of the newer knife makers on RUclips, all wonderful makers, not knocking them...but just see how different it is when they pull the blade across the platen or wheel compared to Bob Dozier. It really looks as if Bob is just shoving it on with reckless abandon, but he’s not, that’s the experience and skill at work.
    This was a joy to watch.

      Yeah, I know, lol. Anyone who makes knives, from the beginning hobby maker who makes rough knives with an angle grinder and a file jig, to the pro with a big shop and years of experience, knows this is hard, meticulous work. But what a joy!

      I'm a newer knife maker and I almost spit my coffee out when Bob just jammed the blade up to the contact wheel like he was profiling the damn thing 🤣🤣🤣
      Wild to watch how easy he makes it look

    It seems like nothing… when you watch him stand before a grinder and just push the blade into the wheel with confidence and then hit your bevels perfectly….. that takes thousands of hours of experience and hundreds of knives… legendary

    Mr Russell arranged for me to learn how to hollow grind from Mr Dozier at the 2014 Blade Show. Like a idiot, I got tied up with the wrong people in the industry, and never made it down there. One of my biggest regrets. Goldie even warned me about the guy I got involved with.

    Dry grinding and dry buffing at very high rpm is a good way to ruin the temper of the blade.

      The video shows some kind of paste with a very fine abrasive.

      It was an impromptu filming session. The shop is dark and noisy, which makes for poor quality images and sound. The video was just for information and fun, it's not meant to be professional.
