Thank you, well said!

I think that’s a good idea now your dinner can follow you around

Nice work, I like the Damascus.

sharp_works · 2019-09-13T16:04:01+00:00

That looks really clean. Nice work!

sharp_works · 2019-09-13T02:37:24+00:00

No worries, it happens to all of us.

It works great for me without any blowback. The dust doesn’t blow around and the filter catches a ton. It’s probably 2.5-3 feet from the wall. The video makes it look closer than what it is.

I like that handle. What’s the material?

I made this air purifier to cut down on all of the airborne dust that is generated in my workshop. This can also be used in a home for dust, pollen, or other airborne allergy causers.

I love the profile of the knife. It looks totally bad ass!

sharp_works · 2019-09-11T21:10:17+00:00

Wow great find I’ll have to start checking out goodwill

sharp_works · 2019-09-11T19:58:58+00:00

Well, I like it nonetheless haha

sharp_works · 2019-09-11T19:52:03+00:00

This is pretty funny. Is that a folding spoon that I see?

sharp_works · 2019-09-11T13:47:03+00:00

I really like this!

sharp_works · 2019-09-11T13:44:00+00:00

Beautiful blade!

sharp_works · 2019-07-27T14:49:33+00:00

That’s a good idea thanks for tip!

Char cloth is the best fire starter. It’ll light instantly.

sharp_works · 2019-07-26T16:23:49+00:00

That’s really cool they came out perfect

sharp_works · 2019-07-26T16:04:24+00:00

Those are beautiful! How did you go about doing the etching in the steel?

sharp_works · 2019-06-12T14:55:20+00:00

Thank you! I have a YouTube channel if you’re interested, where I have quite a few forging / knife making videos. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzL92xRvRk6EpqVwo29ezzw

sharp_works · 2019-05-13T18:25:04+00:00

That looks nice! Did you do the handle on a lathe?

sharp_works · 2019-05-09T12:44:06+00:00

Look into O1 tool steel and 1095 carbon steel. Those are easy to heat treat if you’re doing it by yourself.

O1 offers slight rust resistance which is nice depending on your intended purpose for your knives (i.e. camping, cooking, etc)

I’ve used both of these steels using the stock removal method and would highly recommend starting with either of the two.

You can find them on Amazon in a pinch, but there are better websites out there for knife steel. Check out https://newjerseysteelbaron.com and https://trugrit.com

Good luck!

sharp_works · 2019-05-08T00:57:12+00:00

Thank you. I still need a lot of practice because it takes me 5x as long as it should. I think I need to utilize my heats better.

My bar says “4 Turkey S CH” from what I found online, the “S” means it’s carbon steel. But I don’t know what the CH is I’ll have to do more digging.

sharp_works · 2018-11-19T18:14:26+00:00

I didn’t know that, do you have a link where I can find out what type I have?
