  • In this build, I make a hook knife to add to growing collection of carving knives. The handle is hand-carved and the materials are upcycled from a broken sawblade, firewood and a piece of copper tubing.

    Very cool no nonsense build. I’m curious what you used to sharpen the final edge. I’ve seen a lot of different materials and techniques.

      I just used a sharpening stone. I have a few different grits. Thanks for watching, cheers!

    This is amazing. I can't wait until I get my shop up and going so I can follow along and attempt it on my own. Great video :)

      Thanks, Jason! I really enjoyed making these last two saw blade and firewood knives, so you could say I am carving out a new niche for this channel :-D

    Just when you think you're done with the puns, you hit me with another one. Subbed, very high quality content for the scale of your channel.

    All hand tools? Lol. Nice video 👍. That would take 2 videos to cut metal by hand.

    isnt saw blade already tempered?

    • @HacknBuild
      @HacknBuild  2 года назад

      Hardened and tempered, yes. When it's heated up to be bent and forged it loses it though.

    Hi looks great one question though well too. First what's the thickness of that saw blade that you're using and second where do you find a saw blade that big?

    • @HacknBuild
      @HacknBuild  5 лет назад +1

      Hey Brian, the blade is from a 14" cold cutting saw and is around 1/8" thick. Since I made this video, I picked up a few more worn out blades from a fabrication shop. I don't know if it's the best source of steel, but it's free :)

  • @chriscopeland1455
    @chriscopeland1455 5 лет назад

    question? im confused and new too this on your heating methods shouldn't you heat to 400F to stabilize then quench in oil for the final blade strength id really like too know loved the video me and my son will be making one soon hence why im asking please let me know

    • @HacknBuild
      @HacknBuild  5 лет назад

      Good luck with your knife. Glad you picked up on some of my mistakes so you don't have to repeat them. Thanks for watching, cheers!

    • @chriscopeland1455
      @chriscopeland1455 5 лет назад

      @@HacknBuild thanks i will but you were right to quench for 5-7min moving back and fourth for no air bubbles on blade then yup if 1095 carbon steel 400 for 2hrs X2 = 4hrs you had ir right my friend sorry for the confusion lol lol

      Hey thanks Kim! Putting this on my to-watch list. Sharpening blades is one of those skills I am working on improving but still have a long way to go. Thanks for watching, cheers!
