    Very nice! It is interesting to see into what goes into your knives. Well done. The etching and the molding was cool and I love those scales. Very impressive, sir!

    Very nice, I like the idea of using an old saw blade.
    When all else fails, read the directions, and beware the Chihuahuacabra!

    Is there a reason you heat treated before you ground the bevels? I'm just curious?

    I usually heat treat before I grind. More belt wear, but fewer warping issues - especially with the old, rusty sawmill blades.

    Aw learn something new every day, a thicker slower oil will also help with that.

    Always enjoy watching your videos crash! I just got some 1095 in the mail and am starting on a knife for my friend who will be graduating this year. Hopefully it turns out well
