Knife making - Pocket knife

I made this set of pocket knives side by side. I used the first as a guide for the second. The second is made off camera, but is basically the same knife. The blade, liner and springs are made of o1 tool steel. The black one has bolsters from o1, and the scales are black ebony. I am really happy with these two! I hope you enjoy!

@johnnoodles2155 6 ай бұрын

Really nice looking with a satisfying snap! What I especially appreciate is the space you leave between the edge and the backspring when folded! Too many folders let the edge get too close to the backspring, resulting in the edge hitting it and getting damaged when folded unless you hold the blade all the way until it's completely folded - something you don't want to have to bother about if in a hurry or if you need to fold it with one hand.

@Inmyshed 6 ай бұрын

Thanks! Yes i try to get as close as possible with out damaging the blade when snapping it close. The kicker, spring tension and distance to backspring takes a long time to adjust, hehe.

Great folding knives you’ve made, they both look very classy. I’ve made a few folders over the years myself, mostly lock back folders. Have a try at making a lock back, it’s a bit more of a challenge getting all the pieces fitting and working together. Regards from Down Under.

@Inmyshed Жыл бұрын

Thank you! nice! Some of the first knives I made was lock back folders. I made two. Its hard to get a good spring function, I find! Right now I am really into liner locks and slip joints, but I will try my hands on lock backs again for sure!

Hi! Thank you! At 2:35 I quench the blade in seed oil. At 2:45 Before sanding I spray windex on the blade. It makes the sanding paper last longer, keep the dust from swerving around and it does not make the blade rust easy, like water does.

Ok why do you sand after heat treat instead of before when the sandpaper will cut quicker ?

@Inmyshed Жыл бұрын

Hi! My sanding belt goes up to 240 grit, so I just start sanding at the one grit lower then that. I tried sanding a knife to 400 Grit before hardening once, but since I use a blow torch to get it hot, it made so much scaling that I had to start with a rough grit anyways. Maybe I was just unlucky that time. Ill try sanding to 400 grit before hardening on my next blade!
