View ChannelAbout
I am passionate about Knife Making as a hobby, and I invite you to follow and learn about the processes involved in manufacturing hand-made knives. My goal with this channel is to teach and learn as we dig deeper into this journey of craftsmanship, as I remember how I watched Youtube video after video in order to learn as much as I could. Over the last 5 years I refined my techniques, kept what worked, and discarded that which did not...and now I can share it with you. The tools I use is by no means fancy, my belt grinder being the biggest piece of equipment I own, which means that you can jump in and make your own knives with basic tools found at any hardware store. I did after all, start with using only hand files and a charcoal forge.
