Would you go over the layout of the holes in the tang and how the cord wrap is done? I've never done a cord wrapped handle, but would love to some time.
Yeah, I could try to do a more detailed video on the handle wrap sometime. I don't really have any rhyme or reason to the hole layout, except for the lanyard hole where you'll want to finish the wrap. The rest of the holes are just to get the weight down in the tang. Thanks for watching!
No joke buddy. I enjoy forging knives so much more than stock removal. I started out with a Harbor Freight 3lb cross peen and a 1.5lb sledge that I rounded over one side. I think about the cheapest anvil options out there are the Happy Buy anvils on Amazon. They're not great, but they're good enough to get started until you can pick up a higher quality anvil. Good luck! Let me know if you get set up for forging 🤙
I really like your series of smaller knives smaller knives works so much better for field dressing and skinning game
Thanks David. Glad to have you back! 😜

@@DavidMoonForge thanks, I couldn't tell if the wrap went through any of them or just over the top.
Yeah, the wrap is just over the top.

i gotta get an anvil and hammers. Stock removal is not doing it for me any more.
