I appreciate you taking the time to include all that information and the links in your description. Excellent knives too!! Enjoyed the video, definitely will subscribe.
I’ve viewed at least 500 videos from “knife craftsmen” on RUclips and am overly critical at times, but I must say; NO ONE, has made any better quality, beautiful and awesome set of knives as this young man. Simple tools, no full of themselves videographers, no verbose self gratification just think it, do it, show it and get on with it. Don’t want your head to swell but the best by far in my humble opinion, ever. Thank you son.
Yep, I have been making knives since about 1980, my favorites are folders, but this is a great great video, and a well made remarkable knife. Get an initial stamp or an engraver and SIGN your stuff, it is something to be proud of.
It's a nice knife for sure, and its refreshing to see more simplified tools, but saying NO ONE has made a better quality knife on youtube is insane. There are much more complex ways to heat treat O1, making a higher quality knife. There's plenty of people out there doing work leagues above this. Not trying to put this guy down, he is very skilled, but check out someone like Nick Wheeler or even Alec Steele if you want to see someone pushing the limits on quality.
I've probably watched a 100 hours of knife making videos, spent time tracking down a used grinder, a small belt sander, still looking for a drill press, hoping to make my first knife on the cheap. But I worry my sander isn't strong enough, and then I'm over thinking the jig to get the angle right, and then I see this. Amazing work, with the cheapest, oldest, and even rusty tools. And the end product is world class compared to the tools you had to work with. Reminds me of a true fisherman, doesn't need the $1,000 rig, it's the "know how" and wisdom applied to a small set up that catches the fish. I'm inspired to order my 1040 this week. Thank you, I needed this!
Nice twins dude. These two knives are some of the finest I have ever seen. Your work ethic is tremendous and your video is one of the best I have ever seen. Thank you.
I must admit. When I started watching your video, I was concerned it would be another "DIY make another inferior knife out of tin foil" kind of video. Ive been proven wrong. I'm impressed with the amount of precision and quality craftsmanship in your video. Much appreciated my friend. I truly enjoyed your video.
Congrats to you man. It looks like we started our channels at roughly the same time but you're over twice as large as mine. You have some great content and you deserve to be even larger. Keep it up.
Peter Adamson Knives thank you. I'm working on a couple of knives at the moment but my camera screwed up so I kind of had to hold off on making them until I buy a new one.
At 1st I thought this was going to be a really crap video, however how wrong can I be! You are a pleasure to watch so very skilled. It's so nice to see that with just basic tools something so beautiful and wonderful can be made. Love it thank you for posting.
Nicely done! You definitely have the knack. You have demonstrated that one doesn't have to have a lot of expensive tools to do this if you are willing to put in the time and effort.
Great video! Very noble attitude sharing your knowledge for free, taking your time to help others. Beautiful display of kindness. Thank you very much. May God bless you and your beloved ones.
Nah man, him making them the way he does with his simple set up of tooling is what makes his vids & knives so cool, 100% all hand made makes them so much better as well as his determination & skill level
This video got me into knifemaking, I copied the exact template but eventually never finished it completely. After making several other knives I finished this design recently. Suddenly I see this video again after almost 2 years, this video partly triggered this awesome hobby!
Thanks for sharing! Great work, wonderful knives! Just one remark: At the end, when you sharpen them at the leather belt. Turn them over the back of the knife, not the edge. It's just a little modification of your movement, but it's what you should do when using a leather belt. Thanks again!
@@sixteenstone007 ok. When you pull the knife over the leather you have to make a decision at the end of the movement: "how will I turn the knife?" Ond direction will keep the edge close to the leather, the other one the back of the knife. With the first one you will rounden the edge, as you unwillingly will increase the angle at the end of the movement. The other direction let's you easily avoid this. When barbers still had these razors, they did it over the back of the blade. And I just found a video where you can see it: ruclips.net/video/rgsEKpA4SUI/видео.html
@@HaraldHofer ohhhh ok I see now what you're talking about! Thanks for answering and giving such a good explanation and even a video. Much appreciated!
Bellissimi.... Ottima manualità con utensili normalissimi.... Non capisco come hanno fatto 883 persone a mettere 👎.... Complimenti hai fatto 2 bellissimi coltelli di qualità
What a beautiful set of knives, every part of the knife complements the other, truly a work of art, but the shape and size of the blade and handle look so functional. Thanks for sharing.
Boats'n Hoes Inc. I think it’s interesting that there is even a classification for hunting knives anymore. Basically whatever you use to gut your kill is a hunting knife lol
Very nice handles, blade shape, ergos, sh*t it's about perfect and with such basic tools. Very impressed. Love how the handles taper down so much at the front and the downward pointed blade.
Tony Dadon you don't need a video to share your experience with a novice or an expert. Using a belt sander with gloves can hurt you if you touch the rotating surface. That's helpful advice from people who have stopped a grinder with a hand accidentally. But i do hear what you are saying. Some can be a little much.
Great video Peter. I've made lots of videos of my machine shop tools so I know how much time you put into the editing. I learned a lot, will be putting it to use on my 1st knife soon. Thanks
He is using some hobbyist tools though... not only hobbyist tools but some ^^ I need a video called "Making a hunting knife using ONLY hobbyist tools" lol
The belt grinder is unrealistic to be expected from a hobbyist, but all the other stuff like the forge and the anglegrinder are pretty basic tools for knife making
@@justaamateur6533 you can use a belt sander, clamp it upside down to a flat surface, and use some #60 & #80 belts. It should be noted that he's also using annealed steel for this process.
Have you seen professional tools? A single knife belt grinder costs almost $2,000. A $100 combo bench grinder / belt sander is absolutely hobbyist. If you all think those are too high level to be for a hobby, you’re not a hobbyist. You’re a daydreamer. You probably spent more money on coffee or soda last month than that cheap ass bench grinder cost.
Cool video dude, you clearly had what kind of knife you wanted to make & went with it working with your simple set up of tools, awesome knife, congrats!
My jaw dropped as I watched you ACTUALLY use a hacksaw all the way through that steel 😂😂 this is really cool to see basic stuff being used to make these awesome knives
Great job on these knives I click so fast every time I see you've uploaded ! Keep it up ! PS : If you like these types of videos consider checking my channel out :)
Excellent looking knives, whish the edges were more clear but all the rest is perfect. Nice steel, nice long hour work handle, I would use them for butchering lambs, but they would look nice in your collection I'm sure.
Working on my first knife myself. I am one step up though and use an angle grinder. On other hand, my base material is an old file wich i heated to aneal it so it is easier to work with. Thumbs up.

I agree. I think that the knife he made with the tools at his disposal was incredible, but still not the best thing I have ever seen.
I totally agree, nothing pisses me off more than a bloke full of him self talking for 80 % of video.

You can always tell by the bare patches on someone's forearm that they have properly sharpened their knife.
I was just thinking that!! 😂
Thats why you test it on your leg ahaha
Or you can were thinking of shaving your arm then chicken out half way through
Screw forearms, I gotta legs like a lady cuz of that
Unfortunately my whole left arm is bare
Beautiful knife without high dollar equipment. Sign of a true craftsman!! Thank you for making this video!
Nice twins dude. These two knives are some of the finest I have ever seen. Your work ethic is tremendous and your video is one of the best I have ever seen. Thank you.
What a beautifully made pair of knives - absolutely faultless. You are a true craftsman.
I love how you made the bevel look like it is convexed great way to hide a grind that wasn't pretty
Never thought of that
Your work is clean, crisp, rugged and truly great. Thank you for your videos. They give me a great deal of hope and inspiration
Video: Basic Hobbyist Tools....
Me: Doesn’t have the first tool
So you don't have a marker ._.
knife making is not your hubby, its ok.
I had the exact same thought. I’m shaping some knife blanks for a kit. Saw the title of the video and immediately there’s a sander I don’t own.
@@blandflatland8915 sanders are very cheap
@@blandflatland8915 and I mean you could hand sand it just very very time consuming

Your videos are great Sharp Works!
Whiskeylung - The Guy who... thank you so much

I like your knife profile shape.
thanks, you can download the template in the description if you like
Peter Adamson Thank you !
My favourite knifemaking channel ,i love handtool work ,great as usual thank you.
Amazing job, I didn't think I'd watch the whole video, but I couldn't stop watching.
Nicely done! You definitely have the knack. You have demonstrated that one doesn't have to have a lot of expensive tools to do this if you are willing to put in the time and effort.
Jack Duncan I agree. Ive seen allot of videos now of armatures making knives and hes stand out. Remind me of gough customs.
Great video! Very noble attitude sharing your knowledge for free, taking your time to help others. Beautiful display of kindness. Thank you very much.
May God bless you and your beloved ones.
thanks a lot!
Someone buy this man an angle grinder and jigsaw
Kevin Raj most people have those
Kevin Raj Also a furnace
Those you can buy. Willpower is something that isn't cheap.
Nah man, him making them the way he does with his simple set up of tooling is what makes his vids & knives so cool, 100% all hand made makes them so much better as well as his determination & skill level

I wish I had all those "Hobbyist Tools" ;) Great job!
my grandfather used to make knifes in a similar fashion, havent thought about those in years. Great looking knifes
In the immortal words of Doug Markida. It will keel.
Lol. I love that show!!!
Nice to know my kind will be on my side
I don’t believe the hyp
this is a great showcase of minimal tools and major skill producing a beautiful tool. makes me want to give it a try!
Nice drop point shape.good job.
thanks!
That’s a nice knife. Video well done, great cadence, excellent craftsmanship!! Thanks for posting. Beautiful knife.
Beautiful and inspiring work. Hope to reach this level of work. Thank you for sharing!
I like those Mosaic pins you used, it really makes the knife look complete, so simple yet so lovely.
This is art.
Tutorial atado moscas
Love the smell you get when working with olive wood. Especially when it is not entirely dry.
Wow nice work
Your videos are really inspiring! You show that even with the basics you can make descent knifes.
beautiful work you got yourself a sub
thanks!

Absolutely impressed by the hand tool usage. You're only going to get better and faster if you get power tools. Keep going don't stop.
6:18 when you hear your uncle coming up the stairs
Watching you make this with minimal tools was great. Takes some dedication to do all those cuts with a coping saw
That breathing was weird but I like the vid I think im going to make a knife off of your template
Sam he had air filter mask on so he doesn’t breath in chemicals
Very nice handles, blade shape, ergos, sh*t it's about perfect and with such basic tools. Very impressed. Love how the handles taper down so much at the front and the downward pointed blade.
Hay mum what you cooking in the oven oh son just a knife oh that’s fine mum wait what
This man is so talent. U got new fans mate
thanks!
I like all the people leaving comments "You should do this....." "You should do that...." Really? Where's the video of the knives YOU made?
Tony Dadon you don't need a video to share your experience with a novice or an expert. Using a belt sander with gloves can hurt you if you touch the rotating surface. That's helpful advice from people who have stopped a grinder with a hand accidentally. But i do hear what you are saying. Some can be a little much.
You're presuming all craftsmen are RUclipsrs?
Wow. And all this done in 10:46. Incredible.
Three fingers were lost in this process so I moved onto forks
Great video Peter. I've made lots of videos of my machine shop tools so I know how much time you put into the editing. I learned a lot, will be putting it to use on my 1st knife soon. Thanks
thanks!
Hi there. One question, what's the spray product you apply on the knives with a piece of paper, before the oven part?
Thank you in advance
it's isopropyl alcohol, good for cleaning off grease and dirt that might stink up your oven
Oh ok, thank you!
What d you use to oil the wooden handle and make it darker?
I think he used tung oil
Excellent work, 2 of the most beautifully shaped handles I have seen.
6:50 nice breathing dude
It’s the mask he is wearing makes his breathing harder and louder
Maybe he was getting chased
That is some of the most beautiful work of ever seen in my life
"hobbyist"
edit. for crying out loud guys.
He is using some hobbyist tools though... not only hobbyist tools but some ^^

@@soundmindtv2911 what the hell is your problem..lol
Really nice job overall, but especially the shaping and contouring you did on the handle was exceptional
Do you have a template for this knife? Love the work!
det er i beskrivelsen
Cool video dude, you clearly had what kind of knife you wanted to make & went with it working with your simple set up of tools, awesome knife, congrats!
rip headphone user the saw killed me
Wow 2 Masterpieces! Great job! Greets from Germany
подарите мужику болгарку
Why would so many people give this a thumbs down? Very nice work!
I hate having to cut the steel plates with a hacksaw, i allways break the teeth jsjsk
Nacho Franc try less pressure and let the saw do the work and you’ll break less teeth
Beautiful knives , nothing flash , just simple and beautiful . Like a good woman lol .
Please dont use gloves and powertools at the same time
Very tidy knives that you(he) has built, lots of knife love there.👍🇦🇺
thanks!
from 6:50 on: Darth Vader on speed :-)

Nice knives!! Great blade finish, and the handles look amazing. Thanks for taking the time to make the vid.
Please stop using gloves on a belt grinder. If the belt catches the glove you can significantly hurt yourself.
Thank you for sharing, from start to finish. Your works of art are very much appreciated.
Excellent looking knives, whish the edges were more clear but all the rest is perfect. Nice steel, nice long hour work handle, I would use them for butchering lambs, but they would look nice in your collection I'm sure.
Wonderful workmanship.
very nice looking pair of knives! only seen a few true "hobbyist" builds... most have a HT oven etc.... well done just how I like making mine!!
Your hard work paid off in the end. Nice job.
You're mad for your hack saw, I admire that.
Nice work 😎😎
I like the tiny Darth Vader noises when you're wearing the filter mask. Fine bit of crafting there.
Crazy cool! Some great simple techniques there
Working on my first knife myself. I am one step up though and use an angle grinder. On other hand, my base material is an old file wich i heated to aneal it so it is easier to work with. Thumbs up.
I like that forge you got nice and simple the quenching tank as well nice one. The knifes turned out good bro
thanks!
That is a really elegant little knife. I’m gonna make one.
Excellent craftsmanship, well done sir.
Wow! Amazing craftsmanship
they came out really nice. one day I'll have a garage, then I'll make this and stop watching videos haha. you inspire me. keep it up
Well done for the hacksaw work alone 😳👍😘🏴
Absolutely beautiful mate. Awesome video and excellent craftsmanship
thanks!
Old school style...dedicated to Awesome knife making. A lot of blood poured out making those.

Very nice handles grips the oil brought out the design it the wood not to mention the blades are nice style to 👍
Simple, neat, clean, simply wonderful!!! Great job men!!!
Great work man. Now you have an new Subscriber from Germany.

We do exactly the same, good luck you are did beautiful knives 😉👍
Those are some great looking knives. I wouldn't mind owning one myself. Keep up the great work.
Absolutely beautiful set of knives. Really helpful descriptive video, demisting some of the parts of knife making.
thanks a lot!
Saw many videos of making a blade etc etc....not good. Yours on the other hand is amazing, keep it up!
thanks!
I was so mad when it came to the handles! Then you ground them down lol love it!
Great video, great design, great results. Very clean and elegant.
Disciplined, creative and skilled.Great video Thank you
