Making It Yourself - The Sliver Kiridashi - Knife Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- I was trying to clean up my work space and came across this very thin off cut of 1095 steel. I was about to throw it away, but then I thought to myself I wonder if I could make this in to a knife. It was very thin and light so I knew I would have to add some weight to it. So I dug around my scraps bin and found a piece of brass that I could use as a handle material, this would add the needed weight. I started by cutting off the tip of what would become the blade with a hacksaw. Then I used my belt sanders to clean up the rough shape and added the bevel to the blade. I refined the bevel using my bastard file, i'm not very good at free hand grinding. Then I shortened the overall length by removing a portion of the steel with my angle grinder. I then center punched my pin holes. I just eyeballed this so I had to center punch the blade several times until I finally got closer to the middle. Since this will be covered by the handles I don't mind the extra divets. Then I drilled my pin holes. I then heat treated the blade and cut up some of the brass for the handles. I cut oversized pieces of the brass so it would be easier to drill the pin holes for the handles, accuracy is not my strong suit. I did some rough shaping of the handles and then epoxied everything together. After the epoxy set I cut off the excess pins and began shaping the handles. I really didn't know what I was going for I just removed material slowly until I found a shape I liked. After all theat was done I sharpened the blade using some sandpaper and a leather strop. I think this is a cool looking little blade especially considering it was headed for the trash bin. Thanks for watching!
Ugghhh... the tool noises were too loud. I couldn't find my volume button, so it was excruciating. That's 10 minutes of my life I will never get back. Also, if I had all of those high-end, expensive material manipulating devices I could have made that too.

I thought about it and am now regretting the length of this comment. Oh well. Sometimes I start typing before I start thinking. It's a sickness really. You know I love ya, Dan. It's beautiful. I hope this comment won't negate our free boots arrangement.
LMAO!!!!!!!
You couldn’t find your volume button for 10 minutes?
You worked with what you had and ended up with a thing of beauty. Massive respect.
Thanks I appreciate the compliment.
Enjoyed the no music just tool noises video. Simple and elegant.
Thanks I was feeling lazy so no music this time.
Master of None the way it should be
Personal opinion but this is the best or one of the best kiridashi i have seen so far
Wow thanks!
WONDERFUL Tool .
THANKS FOR THAT Video. 👏👏👏
Glad you liked it thanks for the comment!
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your time and talent
Thanks for the compliment!
Amazing, sleek and curvy. You have a great eye for balance.
Thanks. Sometimes I get lucky.
Beautiful! Outstanding craftsmanship, Dan!
Thanks bud!
Such sweet, wonderful lines!!
john a. gorman thank you.
@@danthemakerman how well does it fit in the hand? Work as intended?
@@johnagorman I gave this knife away quite a while ago so I don't have any first hand use. But honestly the handle is very thin so I don't think it would be comfortable to use for too long. I think of it more as an exacto knife type of blade.
It's a nice kiridashi, and thanks for leaving in when you couldn't get the hole puncher to sit still
Or your camera
I had a giggle, good job
Thanks glad you liked it!
Just what I needed to watch to take my mind off hurricane Harvey. 👍
Thanks man.
I suggest that when making any blade type that you shape then sand then drill then shape the bevel ! This will reduce the amount of bandaids… Nice build !
Good tip thanks!
I've looked at several of your videos. I like your creative use of inexpensive tools. Great work!
Thanks I appreciate the support.
Hi Dan. Thanks for the video. I will be trying this build some time soon.
I was worried for you when you were drilling your second scale pin holes around the 6 minute mark; if your drill bit had seized your sharpened blade could have potentially spun into your fingers or wrist. I have made this mistake before, but, fortunately, I was not cut….. underwear check was in order.
I learned that clamping my work to the bed or setting it in a small vice is the safer way to go.
Thanks again for the video.
A Beautifully done video and piece. I enjoyed watching this.
Thanks brother.
Fantastic knife and video. I liked the background noises of the tools, made for a very effective change from listening to a track I didnt like. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
That's not fair, dude. Either we go out and spend thousands on equipment or buy one off etsy. Nice karidashi
Like to see a dude do one with less expensive tools, Rather go to buy me an old Buck Knife..
I have a video where I make a knife using only hand tools except for a hand drill. This can be made with very basic inexpensive tools but you have to have the desire and will to do it. Its a crap ton more work but it can be very satisfying.
Why?@@thepalerider5121
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
Thanks I appreciate the compliment.
Nice dude! That brass handle is awesome!!
This is probably going to be a form over function knife but I still like it.
Cool build Dan. I love the design. Pure and elegant. Nicely done !!
Thank you I'm still not 100% sure I like the handle but I like the way it looks.
Dan The Maker Man I think the handle is vey cool. The lines of the handle balances the lines of the kiridashi itself. I dig it
Simply beautiful
Thank!
Neat handle design, I have a similarly handled tool, it's a Joker surgical elevator, I use it for tack and staple pulling, but the handle its almost perfect how it fits the hand, like I see yours will and even tho' its all stainless steel, it VERY hand-friendly.
Thanks!
Nice piece, understated elegance. I might have chosen to buff out the scratch marks on the brass, but still nice.
Thanks!
Wow, that's awesome. Nothing goes to waste.
Thanks, waste not want not right?
Awesome job.
Great project. It turned out beautiful
Thanks!
Very interesting!
Thank you!
You make the best marking knives!
Thanks James I appreciate the compliment.
Wow, that was great work Dan! I love the design!
Thanks man I have to use it and see if its not too small.
Dan the maker man, I’m confused on the creepy dark room this takes place in
I film with a single light source because that's the way I like to film. It also forces the viewer to see what I want them to see and focus on what I am doing instead of my messy garage.
Wow! Very nice work Dan!
Thanks brother.
That's a beauty. Nice work.
Thank you I appreciate the comment and the view.
I like your work. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you for the compliment!
That looks incredible. 👍
Thanks! Glad yo like it.
I ALWAYS watch this kind of videos with muted volume while some other music is playing in second tab - problem solved! :D Great knife btw, I like this kind of simple tiny knives.
Thanks!
aweosme work, Dan. Love the shape of that thing!
Thanks man! This one may end up more form than function but I still like mixing the two materials.
Nice work Dan! That looks great! 🤘👍
Thanks man, its not as comfortable as I would like but it looks cool!
That turned out nice. I had never heard of that kind of knife.
Thanks, I would call this one highly stylized they are traditionally very simple knives.
Are this new kind of ASMR??
.
.
Edit: Thanks for the love💗
LOL!!!! I don't know I guess it could be.
Hahaha i love the sound btw😁
Real nice auto- center punching there, Dan. 😂
hehehe. joking aside, loved this one. You're really mastering your personal video style and as usual your builds are amazing!
Hahaha. I knew I would make multiple punches because even when I measure I still don't get it right. But this time it hit me it doesn't matter how many times I punch it because the handle will cover the marks. Saved me about 15 minutes of trying to measure and mark the exact center which is always a pain with a curved surface. Thanks for the kind words I'm trying!
Just what we need another Kardashian!
Hahaha!!!
Lol 4:06 😂the camera
That's what happens when you precariously balance the camera on several pieces of poorly stacked wood.
love this one, fine work. SExy but man. The end piece , I would spike it out some to scribe mental. GREAT JOB
Thanks, that sounds like a great idea!
Badass work Dan :)
Thank you.
👏👏👏👏👏
Glad you like it.
beautiful work man
Thanks man!
awesome....thanks for sharing...
Thank you for watching and for the comment.
Damn that's beautiful!
Thank you!
como se llama la pinta con la que se larcan los abujeros para las cachas?

@@tijuaniandosiempre3706En ingles se llama - "center punch" TEKTON 6580 Automatic Center Punch
Quality 👍🏻
Thank you!
المعدات الالمانيه قويه مو مقل لعدنه صيني لذالك ميطلع شغل حلو
awesome
Thank you!
Wow... Very nice. New sub here!
Thanks I appreciate it.
I watch this type of videos the same way some watch soap operas, "I don't see how they're going to pull this off" when clearly the end result is the thumbnail
This is easily my favorite comment. Thanks.
You're welcome
Looks really nice. Would of been awesome if you had polished the whole thing though. Enjoyed vid tho.
Thanks yeah I debated it but I wanted a satin sort of look.
very nice.
what is it used for please?
I made this just to see if I could make it. It could be used as a marking knife for wood working but its not very comfortable to hold for very long. This knife was more of an exercise to see if I could make something out of something I would have usually thrown away.
@@danthemakerman that's one way to get rid of scrap metal, just turn it into functional art and gift it to a loved one.
If everyone was as thoughtful and creative there would be a lot less plastic junk floating around.
Who wouldn't want one of those in their stocking?
Thanks for the video!
@@faaqcee7896 Thank you for the comment!
Why putting color purple
I'm not sure what you are referring too.
very cool knife. I feel like this would be a very good upgrade for an x-acto. Any chance of you making one to sell?
In my opinion it looks good but not a good alternative for an X-acto, I use an X-acto quite a bit and the thin blade on an X-acto is hard to beat. Thanks.
Dan The Maker Man I do a lot of leather work so an x-acto dulls too quickly. A utilty blade works well but it's a bit bulky to use, especially for tight corners and such.
رائع
Beautiful job Dan it's amazing what you can make out of scraps right?
Yup I didn't think it would work.
It’s a good job you made the noise disclaimer at the start or I’d be Suing your ass man. Iv got permanent hearing damage now ! Lol only joking nice video with no gimmicks 👍
LOL! Glad you liked it.
Light please
Video creator is saying the tools noise is loud... actually engineers lov.noise...
Glad you like it!
I don't suppose that knife would be for sale?
Sorry its not I gave it away quite some time ago.
Awsome what type of epoxy did you use???
It is a 5 minute epoxy.
Are you in the bat cave?
I wish!
The handle wasn't the same thickness on both sides. Triggered
Maybe your screen was tilted?
please could you turn on the lights? Thanks
No.

Add some... music
Hola! Esa cuchilla en que se utiliza? Para que sirve?
Pues para cortar cosas guey!
Dan The Maker Man logico! que es para cortar cosas GUEY....pero con esa forma especial debe ser para cortar algo especifico. Y mas guey sera su madre
Hahaha. Este tipo de cuchillo ""Kiridashi" es para hacer marcas en madera mas precisas. Las lineas hechas con un lapiz pueden ser mas gruesas de lo que deben ser porque la punta de un lapiz no se puede afilar como un cuchillo. ruclips.net/video/jGenSBXkMoI/видео.html mira este video.
这叫做刻刀~哎……为什么全叫日本名字?!
Thanks for your comment.
别客气,只是因为在中国这种东西见过不少,但是不明白为什么所有海外的朋友都喜欢叫它们日文名称。不太理解。
the profile generally speaking is a Japanese craft knife shape aka kiridashi which is why friends overseas call it as such.
loud tool noises much better for me than put a music on it bcoz cannot be enjoyed..
3:46 What is that for?
Its a magnet. I'm checking to see if the steel is still magnetic. Once it stops being magnetic I quench it in the oil.
Thank you! And congratulations for your work!
OK you started out with junk and what did you wind up with,,,,more junk
Sounds like what your dad said to your mom when you were born.
@@danthemakerman It took you 7 months to come up with that?
I dont read the attention , and i was use headphone😡😡😡
Sorry to hear that.
