  • This week I take my first stab at knife making and forging the spider knife with a REAL orb weaver spider cast in epoxy resin in the handle. (I'm also doing a GIVEAWAY for this knife, details below) This is my first forging project, and I got some help from my buddy David Laurent from Made By Laurent. He was crucial in helping my learn to forge being my first time making a knife. I put an orb weaver spider into the handle using Total Boat Thickset epoxy. I used walnut left over from the scorpion axe. The guard is made from a piece of bronze bar over a piece of steel plate. The knife iOS made from a truck leaf spring which is 5160 carbon steel. The knife is a hidden tang construction. I used my Ameribrade 2x72 belt grinder to make this knife.

    Tip : When you first start hammering the piece, to give it the rough shape, use a heavier hammer. Even if the hammer is only slightly heavier, the positive difference is noticeable. This allows for better control of the hit placement as you are able to allow gravity to do more work and can focus more on accuracy.

    For it being your first time forging a blade from steel tou have done yourself proud. Having put so much time and effort into hand forging the steel for the blade and using such a beautiful piece of wood for the handle. That knife really deserves a quality hand stitched leather sheath.

    The transition between tang and the rest of the knife need to have a slight roundness to it. If its square the knife will brake off fron the tang.

    @Procrastination2787 3 года назад

    a maybe tip for forging? this is just a thing i notice, the tang was kinda thin, i mean yes you want everything to stay nice and sleek but a chain is only as strong as its weakest link and most blades is see break do so where the blade and tang connect, thinning it out from what i've seen causes it to be weaker. its just an idea i had,

  • @rsbfplayz8245
    @rsbfplayz8245 4 года назад +5

    Next time don't square off the tang to the blade, it creates a stress point like any other sharp corner, next time you should round it off a bit.

  • @darkkittenlightpuppy8802
    @darkkittenlightpuppy8802 4 года назад

    I've made a few knives and have a few tips that may help you now you can take this with a grain of salt because I never had power tools other than a cheap drill I would have shaped the handle before attaching it to the blade then finish it up that and work with epoxy occasionally next time try putting a thin coat of your epoxy of choice on your insect to keep it in the position you want then casting it after the epoxy on the insect cures just my advice

  • @masteroftheuniverse149
    @masteroftheuniverse149 4 года назад

    Overall a beautiful knife. One thing for the next one, using the file guide is great for making your the ricasso perfect and even, but you really should round the corner's where the tang meets the blade. Having such hard edges creates stress points on the knife and makes it more likely to break in those areas leaving you with a handle-less knife and no way of repairing it. But great build for your first knife!

  • @jaimeirizarry3902
    @jaimeirizarry3902 4 года назад

    The way you tapered your handle material all the way to the guard like that has a potential to slip out of your hand but other than that, it's a beautiful knife, awesome for a first try!

  • @robrobertson5582
    @robrobertson5582 4 года назад

  • @shawnmurphy4970
    @shawnmurphy4970 4 года назад

    So when you establish your tang and finish it up where the Tang in the shoulder the knife meets shouldn't be square you need to round It Off because that avoids your knife from having a stress point and potentially breaking right there at the Tang

  • @rscrom1
    @rscrom1 4 года назад

    Great work. But if you keep the corners from the tang to the blade slightly rounded there is less chance of a break at that joint. But nonetheless. Great work.

  • @derekdamko
    @derekdamko 4 года назад

    Great looking knife, my one concern is that you put hard 90 degree corners at the ricasso, where your tang meets the blade. This can cause stress fractures and over time and could eventually break.You really want a bit a radius there to not allow for stress fractures to happen. That handle looks awesome. Great work for your first knife, wish I had the 2x72, really hogs away material fast.

    That's a great knife! I got to forge a nail at Makers Central this rear and I still carry it around in my pocket sometimes. It's great to get to see you get into this stuff as well and broaden out! I'm not going to enter the draw though, since the knife wouldn't be street legal over here and it would be a shame for something like that to be kept hidden away.

    @EgoundderRest 4 года назад

    Mal eine interessante Idee. Schade, dass der Spinne 2 Beine amputiert wurden!
    Den Gebrauchswert des Messers schätze ich nicht als besonders hoch ein, da in härterem Einsatz
    der Gussteil einer größeren Druck-/Hebelbelastung sicher nicht standhalten wird.
    Sieht aber gut aus!

    Though i've never forged before i do know some things like how with the tang though u did relize it i think u stayed on the sides to long cuz u need to get all sides evenly and u let it get to cold while working with it and that can make it brittle. Like i said i have no experience i just know about this stuff so please be kind i'm just trying to be helpful.
