✔ DiResta The Which Blade
HTML-код

- My DiResta GIANT Razors… Now LIVE HERE: imakeny.com/pr...
This is my first prototype for the "Which Blade". My concept is a Bowie Knife (or in this case a tanto blade) with a multi tool as a handle. I will make a second one soon with improvements I developed while making this one.
Knife nerds: "Heat treating.. Balance.. tang..cut fingers.. Blade facing wrong way..blah blah blah...metal is blue.. blah ..impractical.. blah .. metal on metal.. blah..blade will go dull..blah blah blah .." I know thank you.
ENJOY!

Morale of the story, never try to rob Jimmy DiResta, he'll just grab the nearest piece of wood or metal, hammer the shit out of in and turn it into a badass knife in a matter of seconds!
MacGyver would have no chance
and on the forehead to write "Diresta" to complete the process.

"You know somethin', Utvich? I think this might just be my masterpiece."
Pretty sure he's stab you with an ice pick.
Yes, that's the word, BADASS !!!, I stopped carrying a leatherman cause in the DC area every other building you enter passes you through a metal detector, this thing makes me think, maybe I should just stop going to those buildings.
Before I criticize, let me first say that this is an amazing project that I'm not sure I could ever pull off. You are a master of your craft.
That said, it occurs to me that you have the blade on the wrong way around. If it were me, I would have the blade face towards the back as I wear it. This mock-up would work for a left-hander but at the end I see that you placed it on your right. It seems that whenever you draw the full knife, you have to turn it around before you can use it (unless you intend to use it to stab only).
Also, with that sheath you need a leg-tie or some kind of locking device on the belt so that you can draw it with one hand.
You know, just the other day I was thinking to myself “I wish my knife could hold a knife.” 🤔
I've been looking for this video since I first saw it three years ago. I'm glad I found this video.
Incredible craftsmanship and creativity. Blown away by your skill Jimmy
Thank you brother!! Thank you for the support all around the comments !!
+jimmydiresta Not at all, it's an absolute pleasure. Just love to watch your videos, brilliant to see someone with such craftsmanship and skill do things that are so unique. Brilliant skill, hope it all proves to be the success you deserve.
+jimmydiresta вы молодец
And your shop👍👍
SEEN HOW MANY DISLIKES THIS POOR LAD GOT COZ PEOPLE CANT STAND THEY HAVE NO SKILLS AND THIS LAD HAS THATS THE TWISTED FUCKED UP WORLD WE LIVE IN FACELESS FUCKIN COWARDS WITH NO JOB OR LIFES. THIS LAD SHOULD HAVE HIS OWN SHOW HE PUTS MOST THSES TALENT IDIOTS ON TV TO SHAME THESE THINGS HE MAKES TAKES FUCKIN AGES
First time watching one of your videos. My thought process is as follows:
First half: Confusion. "...the hell is this guy doing?"
Second half: Shock. "This man is clearly insane."
End: Convinced. "I'm subscribing to this lunatic."
I've yet to watch any more of your videos, but I hope to God they follow the same slap-dash, haphazard, no music or explanation format. Anybody else and they would take the time to explain every decision, every cut made. Boring. Spontaneous chaos is my favorite form of art and I didn't even think to apply it to blade making.
mhm uh huh yep this comment is way over done
It’s nice to see someone who actually knows what they’re doing for a change. You did well

I like how the knife handle looks like fingers wrapped around the multi-tool. Pretty sick. Amazing craftsmanship! Very talented:) 🔪🔧
What's better than a leatherman? A knife with an aluminum sheath and a wicked metal hand that holds the leatherman. Good job jimmy

Thank you Jody !!! mad love !

I beg to differ... I own both, a Victorinox SwissTool Spirit X, as well as a Leatherman Surge. Both fine tools, but Leatherman's construction is better. Pliers are superior, blades are stronger, accessories more available. And about 25-30$ cheaper, here, in my neck 'o' the woods.... And I was not a Leatherman fan. More of a Victorinox one. Had my trusty Victorinox Officier pocketknife for like ever and loved it. Then I had a BuckTool, which I loved but was not the best. Then got the Victorinox Swisstool. Loved it. Then someone told me about Leatherman and convinced me to check them out, which I did. And was impressed enough to get myself one. Now, I am sold. Love it! Best darn portable multitool I have ever owned...
This reminds me of Army Of Darkness!

Saw your gift on Casey's channel, thought it was pretty cool, decided to check your channel out and find that it's definitely cool. Very talented. +1 subscriber.
Chrisell Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!
jimmydiresta My pleasure Jimmy.
Chrisell Same here
+Chrisell what did he give to Casey?
+Chrisell what gift?
You're an incredibly talented metal smith, carpenter, designer and a visionary with artistic skills.
Yes! Projects like these in fast motion with sound is definitely my ASMR.
For those that are talking shit, please oh please show us you can do what he just did, awesome and cool stuff dude.
Haha thank you for having my back!
Ngood Ravens idgaf that your comment is over 2 months old, this is a fucking stupid thing to say. If you're at a restaurant and the food is shit don't dare complain until you're a professional chef, don't complain about movies either.
***** In restaurants and in movies you've paid for a service. None of us has given Mr. Diresta anything. He is simply showing off his skills and hard work, free for us to enjoy. We have no right to complain about his work.
Gunnar A No I'm fairly certain that we do infact have a right to say if we disagree with something, regardless of having paid to see it or not, plus you could easily argue that we've given him a view and ad revenue if his videos are monetised, not to mention that these are public videos so quite frankly if I want to post that I think something he made is shit, then shockingly I think I will do.
Ngood Ravens still looks like shit
Beautiful work, sir! At first I didn't understand where you were going with it, but the end result is magnificent!
One of the most satisfying things to watch you do is cut metal, aluminum, whatever and it looks like you’re curing through butta. I know it’s cuz of the quick speed edit mostly but man I love it!
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life.
That doubles as a beautiful piece of art!
That's killer! I like how the Leatherman pops out of it. Looks like a perfect fit. I just found my dad's old Leatherman with the leather case.
This is still one of my favorites videos ever till this day I still want one of these.... You sir are a legend
Woah I really, really want one of these. I wish they were in his shop
So much power, skills and tools to make a .... keech.
That's exactly what I said to myself when I saw it !!!!
vycuraci More skill than Davinchi used on the Mona Lisa.
TheRealestEver Hater lol
even skilled craftsman stop to admire great work, trolls stop to talk bull shit!

Your art has an apocalyptic vibe to it, and it's functional.
12:10 "hmm, looks good! Now let's sit and wait for a zombie apocalypse".
Bad ass.

9:25 that laugh lol
That was some next level creativity! Very nice. 👍
You’re a madman. Love everything about it, nice work
Absolute craftsmanship mate, you should be proud. Top notch
Subscribed, this guy is awesome.
Dude you need to see the AK47 guitar if you haven't yet :D
ayy barnacles i watch your vids
fansy meeting you here
You see barn nerd ever were, perhaps he can get a BATSWORD from this guy.
Why is barnacules here?
Once started, I could not stop watching this magnificent mix of artistry, craftsmanship, and magic. Thanks for sharing.
One of the strangest, but neat, but coolest things I've ever seen .. but I like it. Very different and unique. 👍
I came for the knife, I stayed for the funny squeaking noises :D
It sounds like dental tools, mice, or contacting aliens
@@anthonymansfield9626 D.) All of the above
I like this. Anyone questioning the strength of the tang doesn't know what the hell they are talking about.
The tang is strong enough so well said + i love your swords :))
michaelcthulhu Thats funny, because a welded tang is the weakest type you can have.
+Ordingandr dude this guy is a welder and has his own show
Ryan Mallett So? he didn't even heat treat the whole knife, so the welded tang is a lot weaker than you think.
Ordingandr you're the opidimy of stupidity
This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen in my life.
Its cool man! So sophisticated!
9:25 giggle....PRICELESS
wow all i can say is wow people have different ideas of what a genius is this guy is a genius
That is beautiful work. I'd have needed to be pretty stoned to think of doing that...and I don't think I could have stayed that stoned long enough to actually make it...but ... cooooool. The perfect way to take a multi-tool to a knife fight.
Nice going you just wrecked a perfectly good knife ! I'm surprised you didn't grind off the leatherman logo and stamp your name on it .
9:25 Goblin Laughing lol
and that, Adam Savage, is how it's done...
Bro you’re friggin nuts in the best kinda way!! Love this blade!
Wow, you sir, have clearly mastered your craft! Bravo!
Absolutely lovely piece of art. I am still trying to figure if it has a useful purpose. I think it will be more of a conversation starter.
That is a wicked cool design! If you are planning on making a second one, might I suggest a full tang construction, manipulating the tang to become the multi-tool holder. Maybe weld the holder part onto the tang.
I think that would make the multi-tool cumbersome. It would be too large. this design allows for easy transition between the two.
Matt de Oliveira I was thinking he could trim down the tang so it's not extrusive
That still prevents the use of the more compact design of the multi-tool. It would be like using a 10 inch knife to carve something. The smaller tool has the ability to do things that the larger one can't by virtue of its size.
***** Thanks
***** Got it.
Very creative and imaginative from a very skillful pro with all the needed tools! Nice toy you have there. I would rather have preserved the full tang though, or perhaps a spine as long as possible to make it more robust, and two or three small screws plus the weld spots. But to each one their own. Great job buddy. It's a pleasure watching you work, and the sheath is awesome. I just imagine how your friends in the barbecue love this thing. Congrats. Thanks for sharing.
Nicely done! Going to have to make myself one now. Thank you for putting your amazing work for all to see.
Am i the only one that loves the sound that starts at 8:20?
+Sans nope, its satisfying for some reason.
+Sans haha agreed! Its satisfying
So it's a knife holding a knife holding a knife. It's an Inception knife.

best comment in here ! :-) lolz
Yo dawg! We heard you liked knives . . .
It's a Tur-Knife-En!
***** I got it man, I got it.
* squeezes shoulder
I dont know if I have ever seen a metal sheath before. This thing us sick!!!
I am in absolute awe, Sir! Brilliant!!!
How do you come up with this stuff?!! Amazing artist.
That laugh at 9:25 cracked me up.
12/05/23 this is my most watched video. Probably a hundred times. I even got to follow in your footsteps and make you one. Thank you for all the inspiration and sharing your art with us.
Awesome make senior.
About a month ago I starting re-listening to you, Bob, and David from episode 1. Great pod cast from the start. Had to come re-watch this video. Just made 10 cutting boards for the fam for xmax and had you guys and wood talk keeping me company along the way. Good stuff man, many thanks.
You know its a good video when you have no idea what hes doing until 7 minutes in lol
Isn't the metal sheath going to make the blade dull after some time?
Thinnestmeteor I'm sure the sheath was more for fun and the cool factor than actually being a user item...who would want to carry around a clunky aluminum sheath anyway lol
Thinnestmeteor Aluminium casing , no problem for the blade , aluminum is a soft metal .
Eric Mongrain Indeed. I don't think you can cut other metals with a regular bandsaw. Aluminium is probably the only metal soft enough. There might be exceptions, but I cannot say for sure because I'm not a thoroughly experienced craftsman like Jimmy.
+JarAxe
The metal sheath will dull the blade very quickly regardless of how soft Aluminum is if you cut butter for long enough it too will dull a knife and aluminum will dull it so quickly it would be unusable I think its as Tom said its just for looks and showmanship.
+JarAxe Just get a metal blade and you can cut steel :). I have worked in shops and stuff of that nature as a welder.
The leather man hand would make a great shift knob for a rat rod or old truck. That way you would always have the leatherman.
Not sure, but this is manly ASMR. So satisfying to watch!
Try to incorporate rest of the knife tang in next design - it will strenghten the knife :)
TheDutyPaid
Dude, it's Jimmy Diresta - he'll beat it to crap ;)
TheDutyPaid
Or not
TheDutyPaid Prying, batoning, chopping, dropping onto a hard surface, drilling a hole with the point. (That's just examples of stuff I've done today with my own knife.) Anything where the knife blade impacts or a twisting force is applied is going to cause that blade to come off and go flying. You're right, basically all that knife is good for now is cutting apples and opening boxes. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and a weld is always ALWAYS the weakest point. I cringed when he cut that blade off the tang, and I stopped watching when he tried to weld it to something else. You just don't do that with any kind of blade. It creates a very real safety hazard and is just plain WRONG.
Such rape in here :D
miniwaern
Yup. It escalated quickly.
Those handle is so nice.
Just incredible work!
Pure self indulgence, love it.
Fantastic noises!!
listen 9:25 What the hell xD
XD CHEEKI LOL
dude his making a witch blade,thats spirits laughing
+Laurynas Vabalas wich blade not witch blade
:)
+Simon Leidö
also wrong:
which is correct
He don’t make simple projects he makes works of art!
Very cool! I'm a carpenter and I love to be creative and do custom stuff myself. I like how you put the "DIRESTA" on there. Great job!
Guy: you can never get a decent size blade on a multi tool.
Diresta: hold on to your back fanny
That is the coolest damn thing I have ever seen!!! I own a Leatherman....thank you for making sure I will never be happy with my sheath :p hahaha
Yes, I've seen that video a few times now Jimmy, yet it never fails to impress.
The evil genius laughter at about twelve minutes was hilarious! Very ingenious!
I was confused about what you were making for 90% of this video
There is much to not like about, but for creativeness u have my bow!
You’re a god damn artist man! I feel grateful to be able to watch this work being done
I always love seeing people's ingenuity
I would to have a tool and equipment at home like you..
you can. just start buying stuff where and when you can. it takes a lifetime to amass a collection of tools such as Jimmy's.
Sick!
Bonita peça
Perfect work by Jimmy !
LOVED IM COLECTOR OF POKED KNIFES AND BLADES. BUT THAT IS AMAZING. GOOD JOB.
mis respetos para este artesano. excelente
Hey Bro, I started watching this video and couldn't stop. Terrific. I wish I had all those tools. Thanks for sharing. Will subscribe. BTW do you sell your artwork?
Thank you !! Some tomes
Some Times I sell
+jimmydiresta , do u have account on ebay?
No, but I can get one, why?
+elan really he wasn't talking to you
That’s the most unique sheath I’ve ever seen, awesome job 👍🏻
Best way to carry a Surge ever! Well done!
how many times this damn knife is gonna pop up in "interested"
Same here.
in the first place i tought what the hack are you making???
but nou ive seen the final result i get it!!!!!
Dude..... it’s just simply badass!!
That's a very cool, iv seen some wicked custom made bike and drag car creations and this is right up with the best!
You are very fast man!!! Amazing
But: Very high voice :)
I hope this is a joke!😂
yes it is :D
Beginning of the video
Me:why
Middle of the video
Me:whyyyyyyyyyy
End of the video
Me:ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oh oh oh
@@l3nox0 Time to accelerate!
That’s some nice craftsmanship. Things that our younger generations need to learn
This was one of the first videos i watched to get me into knife making
nicely done, my only concern would be the weak point where the blade was cut from it's original handle and welded to the new one. beautiful piece tho.
Donald Thomas that's the strongest point
I was stuck there as well... will it hold up when it hits bone?
Welds are stronger than the surrounding metal.... most always.
@@rayisawesoem there's a reason knives are forged with a full tang rather than welded onto the handle.
Welds are stronger than the original metal
how long did it take you to get lvl 450?
I love that sheath beautiful craftsmanship and also very practical keep up the great work
Always come back to this video to see when I can buy one.
really cool build but the metall sheet is it good for the knife , to be sharp?
One of a kind. This is art.
Wish I had your imagination and patience ! Not to mention your workshop equipment. 😆
3 weapons in one! O, Wow! Very nice indeed!!!
