Your right, I've plenty of half assed that'll do projects in my shed until I took the time to think them through properly! Happy to say there's less of those taking up space. Everyone has to start somewhere, good on him.
The hollow spaces are deliberate, for rat tail or hidden tangs it give the tang flex room to absorb impact. Without the dead space the blade is more likely to break.
Also helps stabilize and anchor the polymer layers on the knife...the material flows into the voids and works like its own epoxy. Those little knives are tough
Cobalt drill bits with a plasticine ring around the area to hold cutting fluid - much easier than faffing about with a blowtorch & risking the blade temper.
It's weaker than the Morakniv he started with, sure. But that's an inherent weakness to all folding knives. I'd wager it's a fair bit stronger than the Opinel though.
From the amount of them he says he's broken, I'd wager he uses his Opinel for a bunch of stuff you'd usually only ever use a fixed blade for. He said the tip broke off some of them, so I'm guessing he used them as a pry bar. Which is a bad idea even with a fixed blade. In fairness though it's a $15 knife so he's definitely not the only one to abuse them and treat them as disposable.
Wish you would consider selling me the Carbon Ops knives you broke the tips off of. I just need one actually. Don't want to cut a new knife in half just to make what I want.
И нахрена? Мора крепкий фикс страгалка, опинель легкий резак, теперь и не резак и нагрузку такую как на фикс при строгании не дашь. Переделка ради переделки. Шопопало.
If you ever want to try this again, mora does sell knife blanks for 13-15 dollars so you can save time and money not having to cut one out
Never underestimate the brainwaves a fella will have in a shed ☺☺

I had to torch mine for a bit longer at bright red to soften enough for carbide drill!
Next video : use the leftover opinel blade to build an Opinora.
a morel
an opirel
an opa🤷♂️
an opira/opra
an omirel!
@@fockoffThe "morel" is a mushroom knife, I assume? ;)
Absolute genius and class A craftsman - let the creative ideas continue! marvellous vid - thanks for posting
Best of both worlds. 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌
if you build it, they will come... nice job all around. fantastic use of what you had on hand....
Who?
Opinel is good knife, mora is good knife so let's destroy them both to make one not so good knife :)
That's brilliant! 👍
Best video on RUclips. Keep it up
Nice!
Esespecially cause there are no many scandi grind folding knifes!
Morakniv should really consider making a folding knife
Cobalt drill bits with a plasticine ring around the area to hold cutting fluid - much easier than faffing about with a blowtorch & risking the blade temper.
I literally dreamt about it and you did it!
Enjoy!❤❤
Nice video 👍
Safety first and then he uses the angle grinder 😂
Тоже была такая задумка,когда клинок 9 го опинэля сломался
511 blades work
That's beautiful man, obviously opinel is already perfection but I get it.
Nice video. I really want to make a folding mora 106 or 120 (the small spoon carving / sloyd knifes )
There's nothing peasant about the Mora.
Its litterally the definition of pesant in sweden
My Companion & I were almost offended, but realized he didn't mean it in an offesive way?
Nice!!!
Genius.
Volgen keer leg het op een aambeeld en sla er op met een zware hamer !!
Mega cool!!!!!
Красавчик
why destroy two knifes?
Yeah, kind of pointless.
I agree but he's having fun let the man enjoy himself
"Fuckin' hell"...can I quote you on that?
Is. The mora. Carbon. Steel. ?? If it is why. Bother. ?!!!!
awesome mod Ian
Now you have to do the Opirakniv
that was the plan but i killed the mora handle.
Better blade but ultimately still has the weak point at the hinge. Pretty cool though
Mess up 2 perfectly good knives to make a POS knife.
It's weaker than the Morakniv he started with, sure. But that's an inherent weakness to all folding knives.
I'd wager it's a fair bit stronger than the Opinel though.
Viking and French mix... It's a Normandy Knife hahaha
Try a cobalt bit to drill your pin out, maybe? What do you use your Opinel knives for? Best regards. 🙃

It would be intresting a buck-pinel (buck 110)
😊

try put cpm 3v in opinel
LMAO
Alternative title: "How to make an opinel resharpen slower and wedge sicnificantly more when cutting? Scandi!"
🤮🤮🤮
Too long
