Making a Knife in 2 hours, 7 minutes

I had this off-cut of O-1 that wasn’t long enough for most knives I make. I thought it would be fun to see how fast I could make a knife. Total time working on the knife was 2 hours, 7 minutes. You can add 4 hours and 50 minutes to that for the various time the knife spent in the oven, ferric chloride and stone tumbler. I really enjoyed the free-hand profiling and not working off a drawing with this knife. I’ve never done that before and it was refreshing to change it up a bit. #simplelittlelife #knifemaking #howto Amazon affiliate links: Find that checkering file (for thumb grip) here: My rotary tool: Bristle Brush for rotary tool: Subscribe to Simple Little Life: Watch More Simple Little Life: Follow Simple Little Life: Facebook: Instagram: htt
