6:43 for my ‘automatic stone washer”, I used a cheap RC car (cost about $20) turned upside down. The ‘jar’ (an old plastic coffee ’can’) fits nicely into the 4 wheels, and I just tape the ‘throttle’ open and set the timer on my phone. Cheap and cheerful. Lovely EDC knife. I have a similar one, just with a bit fuller blade (semi-skinner?) Cheers from Tassie.

That looks great man! So for the normalizing I was under the impression that 1084 is usually good to go as is and can be heat treated without normalizing? Or did you just do that as an extra precaution since you grinded it out and what not. Very clean build though. Do you do your initial bevels by jig then finish by free hand?
@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Chris; Yes it's more of a precaution. Some stress can definitely be placed in the blade during grinding. I've been using my bevel jig to remove ~80% of the material; then switching to freehand once I have the bevels established. I find that I can get a better grind and plunge by free hand... with patience.
@CuttinChris
@CuttinChris 5 жыл бұрын
@@RedBeardOps thanks man good call on the normalizing. I need to look into it a bit more and not rush myself. I actually did the same thing on a couple knives tonight finishing them free hand and they came out awesome. One of them had a deep gouge and a weird grind line from when I used a hand file jig but I was able to save it. Free hand feels good too!

@RedBeardOps
@RedBeardOps 4 жыл бұрын
Hey Josh, To be honest I don't think there will be that much variance. I like two since it grantees everything gets up to temp. From my research you can go even longer if you want and not see many hits on the rockwell. Would be a good question to pass by the guys on bladeforums.

@joshwebb4442 4 жыл бұрын
I've understood that the thicknesses of steel that knifemakers use the only thing longer times would effect for a plain carbon steel like 1080 or 1095 is to ensure the entire thickness of the blade reaches the target temperature... Thanks for the quick response!

Hey Devin, I'd suggest selling at rock bottom prices to your friends and family and co workers. Word of mouth will bring more your way quick.

Thanks for your comment, Kevin. I need to start adding some gimping for sure The handle was designed short so as to be a small 3-finger design.

This is a stupid question no doubt and might not get answered because it is an older video but......How on earth do you grind your bevels to the desired mark when the angle is set by the bevel jig? I see makers using bevel jigs but hit the desired bevel line much higher up. Doesn't make sense to me because your angle is set and if you stick to it will not reach that line. You will hit your center line before you get that close to the spine with the bevels. SO I end up with bevels much lower than I see most makers achieve. The only way I can see to raise it is too change the angle of the jig. But again that is the angle of the jig determining where the bevel reaches...aaaaaaah help lol

That's exactly right. You change the angle of the jig or work rest. Some guys have fixed angle jigs made for specific profiles and blade heights. I

@@RedBeardOps Thanks for the reply. It would seem pretty easy to understand but with that being the case I could not figure out why guys would mark the bevels and then grind on a jig and somehow hit the bevel mark. I felt like there was a piece missing. My knives have all been coming out like Moras. They get the job done but aren't nearly as sexy as what I see yourself and other experienced makers produce. So I will adjust my jig! Thanks again.
