Very cool knife. You did a good on that!!

[spicydeath]

turned out very nicely. i've done that with an old machete that had a crappy broken plastic handle but had a good steel blade.

[ddSavant]

Good content, I’d love to see you keep making it!

Please wear eye protection, especially around saw and sander - there’s no warnings on penetrating trauma to eyeball.

You *really* should consider also wearing ear & inhalation protection - those are less immediate risk - but damage is guaranteed in the long run if you don’t.

I’m not trying to be preachy, but do please give it some thought.

Nice work on the knife scales, I really enjoyed the vid.

Cheers

The scales turned out nice. Good video!

[TonyDiscenza]

Cool video. Great job giving that blade a new life.

[SonomaComa]

Do you prefer male & female rivits or a solid rod to attach the scales?

[MrWayneploof]

this ole boy isn't scared of any dust

[knivesgalore]

Inspirational and really interesting choice of fixings.

[fumasterchu]

That was an awesome video, great improvisation with that copper fuel line. I really like how those scales came out with the motor oil, outstanding!!

[cactuswren]

My friend is slowly dying right now of dust in his lungs.... just sayin... Great knife!

[billywagley]

You did a very good job love the old engine oil stain

[ImPaCtGroundBreaking]

Fantastic work. But I had a table saw accident doing exactly what you were doing. The piece kicked back so violent that it force my right hand back and shoved my left hand into the saw, wasted three fingers. I know longer let my left hand come past the front of the blade no matter what I'm doing.

Est ce que tu peux montrer le plan de la lame du couteau sur papiet.
merci

[bossdaddy]

great idea with the engine oil. never thought to do that but will use it in the future. subbed.

[ShawnMtz_]

Non OSHA approved, but you did it and it works...cool

[sandydennis]

Awesome video! I love how you improvised for the pins.

[zeroa]

Excelent!!
What is that black liquid you used in the wood?
Thanks!

[-OK]

No electricity in an apocalyptic scenario. How you going to run them sanders and saws?

[jonbulack]

Nice work! In the apocolypse I would probably save my electricity to keep my family warm through the winter and wrap knife blanks in duct tape and/or paracord to make handles. You gotta have priorities in the apocolypse! 🤣

"the easy way"??? more like the "if you have a fully decked out woodshop way"
