I don't mind at all. I am glad it was a nice addition to your vise. I can tell you have been thinking this one out for a long time because your mechanical structure worked flawless. I absolutely love the springs on my vise because I don't have to worry about parts falling out. I could only imagine if all knife makers put their ideas into one...the tools we could come up with would be insane and very helpful in our daily knife lives. Can't wait for you to hit 100,000 subscribers.
Thanks buddy! No kidding on the group think-tank thing! That would be awesome to do sometime. Like at bladeshow or something😆. Thank you so much! Cheers👍
Something like what you are describing is very similar to Laura Kampf and Adam Savage's tape holder build on the Tested channel. It was so ridiculously over-engineered for a tape dispenser but was insanely versatile and functional!
One of my favourite things about your videos is the way you revel in every little victory that comes during your builds. You look to take a lot of pleasure in what you do. I love that
Nice work! I am teaching a knife making class of 8 student next weekend and needed 8 knife clamps. I made mine simpler (though will not last as long) using a single pipe that I found along a road then welded 2 nuts/bolts at 90 degrees offset. Wooden holder same as yours from an old oak barn beam. Welded each one to a 3” section of angle iron to enable clamping to the table. Total cost was under $2 each!
+The Simple Life Fair play Jer, you may have more tools than the average guy, but just like the horizontal grinder and even the portable band saw mount, you sure now how to build! Nice going bud!
Thank you very much! I agree. It's after you make a tool or something like that, you get added satisfaction from your work every time you use it. Cheers👍
Simple Little Life Hey, I love your Videos! Ever since you mentioned that watching ads all the way through I have promised myself to watch every ad that pops up! Keep up the good work!
hello my friend. my name is Cristian and im following some of your videos for some time now. im from Uruguay and here is not easy to have a workshop like yours. anyway im trying and one thing its been usefull for me is copying others ideas. i hope one day you can see some of your things working on my place. thank you for your ideas. one day ahead i'll be sendig some pics of my knives and other stuff see you
Great vise for your knife building. Well thought thru processes + your narration in your video greatly enhances our ability to follow you. Keep up the good work! Cheers!
Big Fan of your Channel brother, thank you so much for all the effort you have put into your videos as I watch them over and over as I am slowly learning. 🤙🏽
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it. Even if it doesn't, I'm sure they can't take the fun out of making videos and sharing information😁 Cheers👍
They certainly can't and that's the exact reason I'll never stop watching your vids.. also going to be building an anvil similar to yours from railroad track so thanks for that video also! I'll put some pics on my Instagram! @axis_knives
Thank you very much! The best compliment is when I find out that what I share here helps people out so thank you! Greetings right back at you from Canada! 👍
Hey , nice video btw, I made one also but I used adjusting bolts and spring loaded returns to home when the adjuster on the top are backed off . Haven’t used it yet been dealing with the summer heat here in SW Florida.
Said it before nice to watch a guy with both the tools and the skills to use those tools! I made something similar to your simple model except I had a round tube welded to the square tube, that way the round bit goes in the vice and I can just loosen the vice to twist it, being round I can get any angle. Final thought, with that mailing machine could you mill some g10 or micarta with a dado or slot so that you could make a full tang knife but covered three quarters, you could leave the spine flat with the back of the milled slot and curve the front of the handle as normal but just he shaping handle material and not the tang, possible just a lanyard tube (with epoxy) would hold the tang in place...I don't have a mill so can't do it but would love to do so if I had the equipment.
Holy Moly, you just put that knife makers vise to a whole new level and beyond, could it be more elaborated? And dear lord, your workshop/station, its almost unfair, ahahah, keep up the good work man, your awesome! cheers!
Jeremy, I love watching your videos! I watched this one and think a swivel feature would be very useful. If you needed to, say, add in some file work/jimping, it would be more than beneficial!
I almost forgot, can you explain how the Foredom angle grinder is used, or how it works? and is it a separate piece of equipment or is it an attachment or a part of the milling machine?
Jeremy I have a question, is there a steel that new knife-makers or beginners can use that doesn't require to be heat treated, like 440C or some other steel that is better than 440C but doesn't require to be heat treated?
I love the channel. Been watching for awhile. I made the Walter Sorrells simple vise 1 pipe version, but I am interested in the "spring-screws". What are they for exactly?
Thanks! I like it. It tends to get a little hot in the summer as the sun bakes on the metal and heats it up, but I've added windows which really makes it much more bearable. I've also thought of putting an exhaust fan at one end to move a little more air through it. But it is super nice to have steel wall the weld stuff to. Also in the winter I heat it with a wood stove and a good portion of the wall heats up and acts like a huge radiant heat sink. I'm happy with it. 👍
you might want to try a roof coating with ceramic it has a r value I remember this old house doing something with it and adapting cargo containers in a house😨 the heat is a real killer in Florida thanks for the reply
can you please tell me what TPI tooth per inch, Band-saw blades do you use for different materials D2 Tool Steel Titanium, Aluminum, Copper, Carbon Fiber,Zirc Mild Steel thanks, Gary
+gary demarco I use 14TPI for everything. I know it's not necessarily the "proper" way to go but I'd be switching blades several times a day otherwise. Also I don't use titanium and I don't cut S/S on my bandsaw because it can work-harden so quickly when you're cutting. For S/S I use abrasive discs in my angle grinder. Cheers👍
Awesome...as all your other stuff is. Ok Jeremy i have to ask...your Makita chop saw - is it an actual cold saw or a regular abrasive saw with a carbide blade on it?
I don't mind at all. I am glad it was a nice addition to your vise. I can tell you have been thinking this one out for a long time because your mechanical structure worked flawless. I absolutely love the springs on my vise because I don't have to worry about parts falling out.

"It's my metal lathe; I can do whatever I want." Loved that line.
One of my favourite things about your videos is the way you revel in every little victory that comes during your builds. You look to take a lot of pleasure in what you do. I love that
Thank you! I appreciate that. 🙏👍
I agree. Im learning a lot of things watching Jeremy in addition to knife building.
Nice work! I am teaching a knife making class of 8 student next weekend and needed 8 knife clamps.

Actually you and Tely are the ones who I used to watch and follow the most, both awesome and methodical as ****, you guys rock!
There are so many vises out there. But yours is a masterpiece!!! Well done Jeremy. You're my inspiration.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
Nicely done. You have an FM dj voice. Probably the best voice in knife making on RUclips.
hahaha, thanks!
Excellent work
WOW ... very very well done ..
What a great design! Well thought! I used mine for the first time this past week and I was really surprised of how comfortable it is to use
Thanks! One of those things that we make and then say, "why didn't I do this sooner?". haha. Cheers👍
Nice jig, it will last you a lifetime.
Cool thing with the golf ballhandel.
Thank you very much! Finally found something I can actually use golf balls for😆
Coolest knife making vise I ever saw
Thanks👍
A craftsman and teacher with great film skills. Thank you, I'l be back.
Hi Jeremy ... Impressive design and some really good skills in it's creation. It was a fun video to watch. Cheers!!
+The Simple Life Fair play Jer, you may have more tools than the average guy, but just like the horizontal grinder and even the portable band saw mount, you sure now how to build! Nice going bud!
Excellent video
Great job on your knife clamp, it’s the best one I’ve seen yet......
Thank you 👍
Best that I've seen built. Always better when you build something that you can use. Great job
Thank you very much! I agree. It's after you make a tool or something like that, you get added satisfaction from your work every time you use it. Cheers👍

The knife making vice to rule them all! Awesome
Excellent idea, engineering and mechanical application . I'm very impressed with the finished product. You're a true craftsman
Great design & milling! Very purpose built tooling. Your tool making is awesome!
Great vise for your knife building. Well thought thru processes + your narration in your video greatly enhances our ability to follow you.

So need one in my life. Great job.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing it!
I'm seriously addicted to your videos and watching you make things lol.. hopefully things pick back up for you with the revenue situation buddy.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it. Even if it doesn't, I'm sure they can't take the fun out of making videos and sharing information😁 Cheers👍
They certainly can't and that's the exact reason I'll never stop watching your vids.. also going to be building an anvil similar to yours from railroad track so thanks for that video also! I'll put some pics on my Instagram! @axis_knives

Hi jeremy, you are a genius. I'm learning a lot from your videos, keep up the good work. Greetings from Poland :D:D:D
Thank you very much! The best compliment is when I find out that what I share here helps people out so thank you! Greetings right back at you from Canada! 👍
Impressive! Nice job 👍
Thanks 👍
Good work 👌👌👌
The red lever is a nice touch
"It's my metal lathe I can do whatever I want!" I LOVE THAT
+Long Island Survival haha, thanks! Cheers!
great build!
Hey , nice video btw, I made one also but I used adjusting bolts and spring loaded returns to home when the adjuster on the top are backed off . Haven’t used it yet been dealing with the summer heat here in SW Florida.
Complex design, but I'm delighted!👍
That's pretty slick
Thank you very much!
It’s my metal Lathe I will do if I want too,,, I love it and you are sooooooo correct. Tell everyone else to piss off !!!!!
Hahaha! Yeah 👍
“This is just something that I threw together.” You are far more intelligent than you let on my friend. WELL DONE!!
Said it before nice to watch a guy with both the tools and the skills to use those tools!

Bardzo dobry pomysł , skopiuje dla siebie
Jeremy, I love watching your videos! I watched this one and think a swivel feature would be very useful. If you needed to, say, add in some file work/jimping, it would be more than beneficial!
very well done
+Jacobus Johannes thank you!
for those of us without a mill? lol Love the design, think I may have a friend that can help with the mill parts
cinematográfica 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great job by the way what kind of cutoff saw is that you have to cut your steel with
Nice good camera work
+KARSEN SAULTERS thank you!
very cool Jeremy! :)
Buenos días amigo, este producto lo tendrás en venta?
Jeremy you have mad skills
Thank you so much! Just keep on learning that's all👍
I think it would be a very well sold product on your website. I'd buy one. Ever give any thought to that?
Sooooo much luck in this build! Surprised the curved bit lined up :) Nice one!
thanks!
Wow. I guess when your making a lot of something you figure out how to improve the process. Very nice upgrade.
Thanks so much! Cheers!
I'm a new subscriber so you MAY already have a video on this one, but how to make Mosaic Pins would be great!
+Eric Lummus first of all thanks for subscribing! Second, I don't have a video on mosaic pins. ....yet. Cheers👍
I almost forgot, can you explain how the Foredom angle grinder is used, or how it works? and is it a separate piece of equipment or is it an attachment or a part of the milling machine?
What color paint is that? I love the slightly metallic graphite look of that!
wht a way youve come. almost at 100k subs. congrats. ive been here since before 500 subs
+Jesus San Miguel thank you! And I really appreciate your continued support! 👍
wondering how much time do you have invested in the holder
Jeremy I have a question, is there a steel that new knife-makers or beginners can use that doesn't require to be heat treated, like 440C or some other steel that is better than 440C but doesn't require to be heat treated?
Beautiful work as always. I've never understood why people don't like wood in the metal lathe.
What do you wear for eye protection when you grind?
Great idea and execution . I'm a little confused as to, what the spring loaded outside bolts are for? Cheers
oh just watched slavik tely's video and makes sense now. Cheers
Wow this was sick Jeremy, I also look at Slavik's channel.
+Keith Mitchell thanks Keith! Much appreciated👍
I love the channel. Been watching for awhile. I made the Walter Sorrells simple vise 1 pipe version, but I am interested in the "spring-screws". What are they for exactly?
Another great video!! How do you have your portable band saw mounted?
could you possibly make these vices and sell them i think a lot of people would be interested in purchasing them
any chance you'll be selling those? like the sanding blocks?
What milling machine do you use?
nice job. just a off question how do you feel about your sea can? any drawback or something you would do different?
Thanks! I like it. It tends to get a little hot in the summer as the sun bakes on the metal and heats it up, but I've added windows which really makes it much more bearable. I've also thought of putting an exhaust fan at one end to move a little more air through it. But it is super nice to have steel wall the weld stuff to.

Muito legal. parabéns, congratulations, very good!
Would the seamless type actually be tubing
And seam type be pipe
can you please tell me what TPI tooth per inch, Band-saw blades do you use for different materials D2 Tool Steel Titanium, Aluminum, Copper, Carbon Fiber,Zirc Mild Steel thanks, Gary
+gary demarco I use 14TPI for everything. I know it's not necessarily the "proper" way to go but I'd be switching blades several times a day otherwise.

That's such a cool idea. Damn why didn't I see this video a year ago.
Thanks! should have made it and uploaded it a year ago.😀 Cheers!
Awesome...as all your other stuff is.
Ok Jeremy i have to ask...your Makita chop saw - is it an actual cold saw or a regular abrasive saw with a carbide blade on it?
Thank you! It’s an actual cold cut saw. They run slower than abrasive saws👍
Have you ever made a scythe?
Nicely done
Thank you very much!
Any chance this vise will be available on your website in your knife tool section?
+Brent Jordan I'm looking into pricing to get parts laser cut to make it much more cost effective. Hoping it works out!
