    If you set a block of wood under your handle so the part right under where the hole will be while you drill you have much less chance of tear out on your hole. Love the knife!

  • @erikthered9357
    @erikthered9357 4 года назад +1

    Nice work, I Just started watching your vids and you are talented for sure. Couple of hints as a long time wood worker. One, to much glue is not your friend, it can actually weaken the joint. Use a brush and put a thin coat on both sides of the Joint then clamp.
    Two, when trying to chisel a channel like that put the chisel bevel against the wood. Its easier to control. If your chisel is sharp you should be able to push It with your hands and not need a hammer, even in hard woods.

Love your charity cause as well, my Dad was a Veteran and I work with dogs in a day care and we take in foster dogs and some from the humane society when they are too full. I make walking sticks and wooden pipes, stuff like that. I want to learn to make blades but there are no classes close to here so you tube it is for now.

    John, brother files only cut on the push stroke. That dragging back will only dull your files. Gunsmiths are harsh about reminding people about it at times.
