hey i was checking out you youtube vids, did you ever get around to making a video of grinding the primary bevel in that knife? a nice clear video of how a pro does it is exactly what i've been looking for.


thanks

I have video of the entire process that went into making that blade (actually the blade featured at the top of the page in the banner). Everything from grinding to heat treatment, to a lot of the finish work. There is probably another couple hours worth of video that needs edited down and then uploaded. Unfortnuately this takes forever and I honestly havent had the time to do any of that. Its one of those things thats on the back burner, and keeps getting shoved back even further. If life would let up for a bit I might be able to get it done.

 

Someday though.

 

I did do some grinding in some live broadcasts on PI. You'll have to sift through them to find the right ones, but there are a couple.

yes i've watched all of your vids on the site they were good but the quality wasn't good enough to capture the detailed movements. you last video installment num. 9 was really clear and i was able to see what the blade looks like at every pass of the grinder which lets me compare my grinding with yours and tells me how it should look like. This helps lots! 


Anyway its all good i understand how life can be. I'll be looking forward to the vids whenever you put them up.
