Well done, JP! The pattern ended up being pretty stellar! I love how the red of the handle contrasts nicely against the dark blade.

@JPsBladeworks Ай бұрын

Thanks Justin. Thats what i was going for because the bold colors look well in pictures.

@jeffreyhoops3611 Ай бұрын

You keep getting better! Beautiful knife, fantastic pattern! If I were to criticize one thing (constructively of course) I would like to see a pin through the tang and handle. That’s a huge, heavy blade and it is held with epoxy on a tapered tang.

@JPsBladeworks Ай бұрын

Ill keep that in mind for future builds. I appreciate the constructive criticism.

The research says that the seax blades of the AS and the Vikings was held in by friction

@zyriantel9601 Ай бұрын

@@AngloSaxon1 Sure, and there’s nothing wrong with that, it clearly worked for the time. But if you have the option to make extra sure the blade is secure, why not just go for it, right?

Gloves for me with epoxy as well. I saw one maker (can’t remember who) doubled up on his gloves. When he gets the messy part done, he takes the outer pair off and has clean gloves to wear for the final blade cleanup.

@JPsBladeworks Ай бұрын

That sounds like a good idea. Thats what the bearded burtchers do in their videos. Makes sense. Ill have to give it a try.

Beautiful blade but is that handle going to stand up to heavy use over time without any pins? I suspect not.

Could I ask you why you wanted to cut in the tip with the grinder. Looking back, do you think it would have been a neater pattern to see it compressed into the tip rather than remain undistorted off the end of the blade? Beautiful work!

@JPsBladeworks 5 күн бұрын

I figured since the clip is so aggressive, i wouldn't like how the pattern would look taking that dive so i just cut it out and let it go straight and undisturbed.

@torquemada6781 Ай бұрын

since it is such a big knife, wouldn´t it be better to have a few pins in the handle and/or a butt cap? I like the damascus design, nice work

@JPsBladeworks Ай бұрын

Yea it would. It didnt come to mind since im not used to make anything this size.

@sambelan3551 25 күн бұрын

It’s better not to cut your billets straight but under an angle when you’re restack them that way you’ll get more surface for the forge weld and you also can press it from the top as usual not from the front you had to with a straight cut

You lost me? What restack needed to be cut under and angle?

how does the coffee make it darker ?

@JPsBladeworks Ай бұрын

No idea. All i know is cofee is acidic and that acid makes it darker without damaging the steel. If i left it in ferric chloride as long as i leave it in coffee we would have a serious issue 😅

I plan on it. I upgraded the pump and motor over christmas but i plan on upgrading the piece that goes up and down in the next few weeks so i can start doing mosaics and more precise patterns. Right now it has way too much play.
