    About Simple Little Life:
    This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
    Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
    Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

    A great little knife, I really like the blade shape a sheep's foot with a little belly, I think is one of the most useful for a general purpose work knife. I like the chunky look it has too.

    I found Alec just the other day and have been devouring his videos. He lead me to you and now I have stuff to watch for days to come.
    Catching up on both of you is going to be a lot of fun.
    I am also getting a ton of ideas for how I want to set up my own work area for when I start to make my own knives.

    Hi thank you. I've been asked for friction folders so many times, and said no sorry never made one before. Well thanks to you inspiring video, I'll give it a go to. If I get even half as good as yours I'll be over the moon happy. Love to see Alec working on your Damascus billit . I see his work popping up on other RUclips channels. I've never met him but so proud he's a Brit reaching the whole world. Anthony Kent (HAWK knives UK)

    Even though I am watching this series 10 months after it was uploaded I thoroughly enjoyed it, including the funny back and forth editing with Alec Steele I have never seen that before aside from his video where he made you the Damascus. Back to the knife, definitely a challenge worth taking, you never learn as much as when you try something for the first time and try and feel you way through it. Mechanical knives would be out of most knifemakers comfort zone, but you took it on and had fun. Look forward to watching the frame lock video that you will do with the Damascus from Alec.

    I agree with the finish when you use really any cutting fluid rather than just water. WD40 leave a nice finish. PB blaster is one of my favorite things to use because it actually penetrates the metal

    This build was so helpful and was really interesting because it was something entirely new to the channel. This channel has always been one of my favourites and I've been here since just before the 30 day challenge that you completed way back when. I have a challenge for you Jeremy. I'd love to see you make a spring assisted folder like the kershaw leek (one of my favourite folders)... again great job with the channel Jeremy. Your channel has been a part of my daily routine for a long time!

    Suggestion for wet sanding while on the granite block, hold the blade with a magnet? you could even make a custom one out of a piece of aluminum you use for the sanding blocks, drill some holes in it in a grid and press fit some small neodymium magnets into them. add a small handle to the top to top it off

    I’ve seen many different lubricants used for sanding like water different oils wd40 and windex. I’ve tried them all and windex is by far my favorite also. It seems to leave a better finish. 400 grit is good for many knives using windex where I’d usually have to go up to 600-1000 without using windex

    Windex also helps not to rust the blade during the polishing, at least on my experience. When I use Water to wet the Sandpaper the blade usualy pops whith rust.

    If you're going to test the friction folder as an EDC, just try to remember that it's NOT a locking folder! We get so used to the modern mass-produced pocket knives... I lost an EDC a few years back and subbed in an older non-locking knife. Took me less than 48 hrs. to slice myself. LOL Yeah... not too bright......

    Just sign on after being directed from Alec Steele's channel. Must say very excited for the future collabs. and your content is on point, really good. Only suggestion I would make for you next friction folder is keep the material on the opening tab a little thicker so it sticks out strong in the open position, this way you can add jimping to rest a thumb while holding the knife. This is my personal preference

    Also I'm looking forward to the Liner/Frame lock build with the billet Alec is sending you, if it turns out like this one... Or like the Cleaver collab you did with GreenBeetle.. Or hey, like any of the builds you did on this channel I'm pretty sure it'll be suitably impressive ^.^
