Beautiful knife. I really appreciate you talking about your "mistakes" and changes in your design for it during the process. Too many people talk about their work like everything always goes exactly how they intended it to from the start. Anyone who has done any type of craft work knows that's not how things really go.

I very much enjoyed this build. I like how you found new meaning for that fourth piece of steel in the hand guard. The materials came together, very very well in this knife, and I know you wanted to use gold, but I knew when you held all the pieces together, that silver was the perfect match for this particular knife. I appreciate your way of filming. I like the fast motion. I also appreciate that your short sweet to the point with comments, It leaves more attention to watch your skill. Thank you.

An idea for highlighting/pinstriping, let’s look at the ordinary highlighted pommel, the highlight would in circle the pommel like a belt, what if you used dots alternatively? Idea: In your Damascus steel, is it possible to incorporate Not just one highlighted layer but let’s say three? I’m thinking gold, copper, and I think silver closest to the knife edge?

Really appreciate that you include "simple" mistakes like forgetting to change the drill direction. I think it really adds to the idea of craftmanship as a constant process, not just a finished skill. As someone who can nothing on metalwork, why don't you go straight to the surface grinder when removing the grooves from the twist? Less control of material removal?

@TyrellKnifeworks Жыл бұрын

I always say, these are a series of problems to solve. As for the surface grinder, I was taking off the majority of the scale first so it “stuck” well to the magnets. Thanks for watching.
