DiResta Forged Bowie knife

- In this video watch me forge a Bowie knife from a scrap of metal I cut from the stock that I used in the scissors video few weeks ago. The source of the metal is from a car leaf spring. This may not be the most perfect knife but for me It was a milestone of learning on the anvil and the hardening process.
You can see me use a technique of "Blacksmith tempering" on the red hot chunk of steel.. I learned this technique summer from Alex Pole and Steve House .. applying the steel till the bald becomes a "Hay" color and then your knife is tempered.
The handle parts are left over leather from my GF Taylor Forrest's furniture making studio / taylor_forrest
I show all the Bandsaw at 2x speed to show the carving technique I use to shape the handle .

My heart stops whenever you go into slow motion because I’m waiting for a disaster lol
Thats how to use a bandsaw!. Its been many years using that saw like that and i see you still have all your fingers! Nice work Jimmy
Watching you carve on the bandsaw is so satisfying! 😀 and nice scissor cameo 👊
Perfect sunday viewing, blacksmithing , bandsawing and leather work 👍
id like to see a Alec Steele and Diresta collaboration. who else likes this idea?
You should keep making the burrito a recurring theme, and then collab with Binging with Babish on a burrito to cut lol
INTRODUCING: Jimmy DiResta, the bandsaw whisperer.... Great skills, nicely done Jimmy!!
You sir, are the new "Forged in Fire" champion!
Projects like this are reasons why I never miss one of your uploads. Another great knife, Jimmy!
My ears were happy to hear that the next project is a proper anvil stand.
I think Jimmy could have an entire channel of him just making knives, then slicing burritos and wraps in half with them. Yet another fantastic make!
I love the "Double Vision" Diresta stamp!
Who would have thought 9Lives Hearty Cuts could double up as a leather dye ? Thanks fo the shop tip Jimmy ;)
This guy Jimmy has an obvious talent! I can see him making tables and things with wood down the road!!😂😂😂
Thank God you're back. I'm not much into forging and blacksmithing but the rest of the vid I love.
I don't think I have ever previously seen anyone carve brass with a jigsaw. Amazing.
Those serrations looks very useful, great job.
For heat treating, the temp is raised until the steel is non-magnetic. I saw on your inst that it was still magnetic. At a guess I would say that is where the issue came from
I loved watching the handle come to life!!
When I hear that hammer strike. I hear the Steel sing, What a Beautiful sound it made~
