Checked out your website. Looks fantastic! Really cool story. I started smithing when I retired and just started selling a few things. No knives yet but looks like a lot of fun.

@shedknives 6 ай бұрын

Hey Barrett! Thank you very much for the kind words, I appreciate it. Knives are an interesting field of smithing because you can make it as complex or simple as you want. If you make something, let me know! Thank you again for your support ⚔️

Although the prices are fairly low so is the fitment and finish work too..the flat slab handles have no shape and the tang appears to stand pround of the handle scales..gripping bare tang isn't that ergonomically pleasing..it's like the blade is more of a half finished kit..probably be better to just sell the blade blanks with raw scales as a kit to be finished by the customer as it would give them more handle shape options..I'd sell them as kits for the same current price.. the kit option should be available at minimum as most outdoor types enjoy a diy project from time to time..Cheers..

That's a cool looking knife dude, I have a 1x42, but don't think I can do hallow grinds on it unless I could figure out a way to mount a table there or do it free hand which I know I'm not good enough to even try

@DireWolfForge 6 ай бұрын

I like what you’re doing. The only point of advice I have, is to run your 36 grit belt up into the platten with the contact wheel to grind into it and create a relief. That will help with the filings piling up in the gullet. Keep it up man!

Could you tell me the angle that you had your plate made at? Thanks!

@shedknives 5 күн бұрын

Hello! I had this custom made with a swivel and two bolts on each side I can lock it in place with. That way if I decide to change machines, tables, etc. I’m not set to one angle

@trainwon5699 8 ай бұрын

How do you get your table angle? Thanks for the video

@shedknives 8 ай бұрын

You got it! It’s an even box (what you see) with even side mounts (you can see one of them between the box & the ice bucket) bolted to the box. The bolts can be tightened or loosened for me to swivel it to the angle I want. Key word is EVEN because if anything is a slightly different height, your grind won’t be as even as it could be. I’ll have to do a closeup of it + another video.

Nice job👍What grit finish do you leave on your bevels? And do you do your own heat treat? Thanks

@shedknives 6 ай бұрын

I stick with the 36 grit finish however my blades do go into a stonewash for 1 hour so that definitely polishes them up a bit. Thank you for watching & subscribing!

@shedknives 6 ай бұрын

@@trainwon5699 sure thing! I do not do my own heat treat. I’m currently sending my knives to a well-respected company in PA, USA where they do a Cryogenics treatment. The steel is 154-CM which is technically stainless so that requires more precise handling than regular carbon blades. I do plan to bring the treatment into my own shop! I just need a little more room haha. Thanks!

@@trainwon5699 I just realized that this particular blade in the video was heat treated with HOT temps, not cold. Since the video posting, I’ve move to cryogenics & treat after grinding instead of before.

I do not heat treat them myself (yet). I send the knives to a company in PA. Please note that I've switched companies since the posting of this video and now do Cryogenics with that PA business. Thank you for watching & for your support!

Why don’t you do a surface finish

@shedknives 6 ай бұрын

I wanted to try this more 'raw' style for the year. People seem to like it & so do I. It also saves quite a bit of $ to not do any surface finishing, which definitely helps keep all of my knives under $200.

Cheers, is it rly that important to cool down the knive? I mean i watched so many Videos and they barly do that.... Great Video!

@shedknives 5 ай бұрын

Hey there - thank you for watching! For this specific knife in the video, yes, it is important. I was using an already heat treated knife which makes it very easy to lower or raise the hardness (RHC) with the heat that comes from grinding. I don't have to be super careful of the knives heating up when they are not heat treated (which I do now) but I still keep them cold as it's better on my fingers. Hopefully that helps! Thanks again
