  • Watch as I finish my five integrals. Come along as I sand the handles and blades and watch the Damascus pattern come to life as I etch and coffee darken them. Then I’ll embed the handles permanently in epoxy, sharpen the blades, and then they are done! This build took about 200 hours of hard work, about 5 weeks.

    That Windex tip for sanding is the best advice I've gleaned from your videos. You've saved me hours of time making sanding more efficient. Less clogging of the sandpaper, easier sanding, and much cleaner. The final finish is also more uniform.

Your damascus is insane! I love it. Do you ever sell just the damascus blanks so someone could use your patterns for their own projects? Also on the website every knife is sold so how does one know what they sell for or how do they have a chance to buy one?

    Hey Kyle. This is my favorite ( sanding), thing to do of my projects. It’s cathartic…that blue is beautiful. Is this wood injected? I use a lot of Ebony, African black wood, etc. the oils are unbelievable! I wish I had ur talent in the forging department. I could carve a handle but forging? No way…but I love the varying Damascus style and designs. U are the true master. My other favorite projects are bespoke shoe making! I remember buying my first Allen Edmonds and Parker/ Parker man. …love my shoes.can a person buy a blade such as this and place there own handle on? Beautiful work sir….beautiful! I love watching u. Say hey to ur mom and dad. U look like u live where I use to live in Jacksonville Illinois. Or Springfield Ohio, or terra haute Indiana, or Kansas, or Oklahoma…I know this isn’t my home town of Raton New Mexico…but it looks like middle America 🇺🇸

    You can buy one of those static wrist straps they use for working on circuit boards and affix an alligator clip large enough to clamp onto the vise stand (maybe even mount the appropriate sized snap on it) and then you could just throw the wrist piece around your upper arm, or maybe better around your ankle or calf to keep it away from the grabby turny parts and it will bleed off static charge and prevent that shocking discharge from happening.
    There is a snap at the 'wrist' side too, so that you can just unsnap the wire to walk away and resnap it when you return. They are also designed with a megohm or so resistance so that if you somehow get across mains voltage it at least won't add to the current flowing through you, it would be pretty much just like getting shocked without the strap on.
    Little bit it of a pain, granted, just matters how much you are willing to put up with not to be shocked.
    Handles look spectacular. I just tried buffing wood on a whim once, and I was amazed how well it worked. LONG before the internet.
