Can I make a Knife like Will Stelter? Part 3

I abandon my hand filing efforts and move on to arguably the most important task in knife making. The heat treat.

Follow me:

Black and White ebony might be cool with the damascus steel

[myparentskid]

Well?? As Will's uncle I am interested to see your finished product... ;-)

[nathansteyn]

African mahogany, olive wood and ebony are all good options. I would go with the mahogany though

[corrpendragon]

I honestly get so excited for every single video.

[centralquality]

Greatest infomercial ever! Also, African Mahogany.

[Moon-nYou]

Paduka or Jerusalem Olive. Also, for purple heart when it starts to turn grey, heat it up. It will bring the purple back to the surface. Hair dryer can work, but I used a torch, just make sure to not heat it too much and burn it.

[teodorstiernholm]

Awesome video dude! Greeting from a thirteen year old knife maker!

[corrpendragon]

Also, my favorite handle material was that red wood. That looks so good

[jakubchyla]

nice job, i would personally use the african mahogany

[waltermartindale]

You DO know that files are meant to be pushed one way and that rubbing them forward and back will dull them?

[anglerseawolf]

Over 8 months later. I am guessing you gave up? Call Will Stelter for help!

[theebrewmaster]

Dude did you give up? Where's part 4? You haven't posted a vid in awhile.

[seanbullard]

I'd love to see what ya do with the olive wood

[myssadonno]

Cumaru would be great as a contrast to the darker damascus.
great videos by the way!
how is your knife project going lately?

[whiskeyjim]

You bought garbage files, that's what your problem was.

[fhagerber]

No thx this is not for me 3 videos to make a knife and then on the 3de video talks a lot of crap
