Glad you learned something. Do you still have any 80CRV blanks?
@@jwdory I got a TON of 80crv2 left that can be blanks very quickly
When I lined all the timing marks up and rotated the motor I couldn't get the timing marks to line back up
@@TheBrady101010 my cpm pump never did either, but the cam and crank did
@AaronJohnson1979 mine never did on any timing mark after rotating the engine a dozen times, I said screw it an reassemble the motor an it runs good no problems
You are pretty scary When working on the furnace. Nice test...thanks
Hey just your opinion on 1095 and 1075 review say 1075 is tougher amd 1095 holds a better edge retention is that accurate or is all to the heat treatment
Nice work Aaron, you really have the process down pat and turning out some fine blades. 👍 BTW if you need more diamond juice just lmk.
@@NORTHWESTKNIFEGUY it’s about half gone on the half micron and one micron but I’ve used it a lot. It’s lasting a very long time. I’m probably good for another year. lol but yes, I love it. That’s all I use now.
@@AaronJohnson1979 Well just let me know when you needs some. I have 4 oz bottles too.
@@NORTHWESTKNIFEGUY will do my friend
Mate. What was your. Temp on quench and holding time. In kiln. Tx
@@thysvorster8960 go to two minutes into the video and I show I’m at 1940 Fahrenheit 10 minutes hold time. And that’s because I didn’t cro-treat it, I just just used my home freezer. That’s why it’s a lower temperature.. if you are actually going to use liquid nitrogen or even dry ice mixed slurry in kerosene you could raise the temperature to 1975 Fahrenheit
Where can I pick up that stropping tool?
@@Unclelarry766abc go to “Northwest knife guy” his RUclips channel there he has links to buy the strops and they are amazing
It would be cool if you did a katana.
@@basiliskbro4078 maybe one day I would love to try it
How long and tall is this blade? It looks like a very useful size. Thank you
@@IronCan88 it’s basically a copy of the LT Wright Genesis dimension wise 5 inch handle 4 inch blade by inch and 1/2 x eighth of an inch thick
@@AaronJohnson1979 I am asking a blade smith help me make a outdoor magnacut knife similar to this and couldn't decide between 4 or 5 inches. Then I saw your video and was shocked. Never seen anyone do destruction test like you do. Like RUclips knows what I am looking for. I ended up requesting a 5" blade. What compound do you think works best when stropping the magnacut knife?
@@IronCan88 I like to use diamond spray on leather. The one I have is from Northwest knife guy check out his RUclips channel. He sells it and it’s very affordable and long lasting
Shoulda bought a samsung lol
@@Drspank89 lol
i’m just gonna say it.. doodle dogs are idiots. stop it humans.
Just found your channel, congratz on over 1k subscribers
Nice knife! I just bought some 14c28n steel, so nice to see your process before I get started. Quick question though: isn’t the 16,000 grit shapton stone something like 0.9 microns? Do you notice a difference going to the strop after? I go from a 6000 grit shapton to a strop, but have debated the 16000 stone instead of a strop (because I do a lot of wood carving, and micro-convex bevels from a soft strop are the enemy!) cheers!
@@paulkozowyk well for me it depends on what kind of steel we’re talking about, I would never even use the 16,000 on something like magnacut or one of those high vanadium steel they’re way too hard to polish, something like AEBL or 14 C 28N they can take a very high polish. They are pretty simple steels fine structure. Go to knife sharpening Norway channel and he has a lot on what you’re talking about here he likes to de burr on a high grit stone, but only strops at a high angle very lightly just to add a little toughness because he sharpens it and a very low angle, which you have to take into consideration, also what your angle is, me personally I like to finish off with Northwest knife guys strop with his diamond spray no matter what stone I use to me. It just seems to clean it up even a little bit more but the green aluminum oxide compound on a leather strap will only ruin a 16,000 gritstone from Shapton the diamond spray though seems to keep it crisp.
Im sorry i dont know much about wood carving tools. But i would absolutely for a more precise cut go for a fine stone than a strop. Also de burring edge leading and edge sideways can help also
@@AaronJohnson1979 thanks!
I think It needs more flux.
@@basiliskbro4078 do you think I should put more flux on it before the first initial Weld?
@@AaronJohnson1979 Sorry I was trying to be funny, not actual advice. I have no clue how to forge weld :) .
Who did you get the downpipe from?
@@santabanta8173 the guy
word
Sweet and thin blade and damn your sharpening is better than mine
@@knifesharpeningnorway no I’m not but yes this one is really really thin
@@AaronJohnson1979 yes you are and yeah it looks insanely nice mate
A leaf blower during the quench ! That's a new one. I found you channel only a few months ago and I really enjoy all your knife making videos. Def learned a few things but I still wondering who Sally's baby daddy was.
@@lawrencedavid9728 lol that’s the first video. I think I forgot to put Hank and Sally both in Hank is the baby daddy and he was a deadbeat dad lol
Never put dry ice in a container mixed with water especially a glass bottle with a metal screw lid it goes off like a b omb , ended up in a&e with two others getting stitched up, one lad ended up going to theatre to stop the bleeding .
For sure lesson learned that’s no joke. I’m surprised the city didn’t send me a bill for having to send the bomb squad out.
Do you have any book pd about forging I want to began this passion please can you help me
I’m just getting into forging myself. I mostly do stock removal. I do have some forging videos but you’re gonna want to watch some videos that Jason Knight makes. He really shows a lot of good techniques.
@@AaronJohnson1979 thank you
Marko Tatamovich here , I’m polish and I invent my own knife steel , it’s called Kurvacut , I use secret blend of molybdenum and skin of 9 polish sausage. I have Sam Rockwell of 120, I cut steel balls in half in one chop, make your knife look like toy. I’m fully qualified metallurgist and have degree in science,physics,electronics,nuclear engineering,quantum mechanics, medicine,sociology and biology, but here in Uk I work in sausage packing factory, I’m best knife maker in world, like betman.
Lol
Wow thanks for sharing. Opens too many new possibilities for a whetstone enthusiast. Even if it doesn't release abrasive that much, or loads up slighltly quicker, still can be slurried with diamond plates etc so I definitely need to try
Thanks I’ve been playing around with different grits and different adhesions with materials that might release a little better This might be still the best one though plan silicon carbide with fiberglass resin
My good i must get that steel
Fun steel to work with
...holy fuck
8670 is no joke
Hey Aaron hope you're doing well! Looks like a good time despite the troubles.
Yeah, we did have a lot of trouble, but that’s what made the trip so rewarding at the end was just making it home lol
Stopped at 1:19. WTF need for sound effects?
lol
Oh, come on go on an LSD roller coaster ride with me
But sic stones are cheap xD
So are knives, But making knives yourself, you can customize what you like. I’m sure that applies for anything that you make homemade and you get good at it
You really couldn't edit out 00:40 - 3:00 ?? Darn near half the video was just fumbling.
I know I was thinking the same thing, but I didn’t want to edit anything. I wanted to show that it was from start to finish so someone didn’t think I was cheating.
Very very good to see..thank you.
Love the video and pictures. Looks Ike everyone had a great time. Hay u made it home safe😀
Looks like a nice trip. Vegas and the grand canyon looked insane. Wished for a smoother trip without so much trouble for you but happy it sorted out ❤
In a weird way I almost believe all the problems made the trip better. Everybody came together. we went through it together and then we had a victory at the end together which all the problems made the victory that much sweeter
@@AaronJohnson1979 i see that mate. As always you are a great man to be around my brother ❤️
I miss the desert everyday. Im tired of Illinois and can't wait to go back home! My heart longs for an Arizona sunset.
Its bad ass out there, for sure
Never a fan of jack of all trades, generally. I really appreciate it for what it is though, like a stainless 4v, except I’d just take the 4v anyway. If I were to make a knife for someone to have forever and not have to worry about I’d choose this but for now it’s high carbide tool steel as hard as I can muster. I really appreciate these videos. People poo poo desctrutive tests but with the right observation they’re useful as hell for me brain to see the physical limits.
Thank u and these tests are fun too lol
Looks like a great pocket knife steel
I like your electric forge as well as your operation. Small but i can tell you know what your doing. Do a lot of what i do. Only i made my own quench tank out of some 6" angle iron i stood up and welded together like a pier that i welded to to a square piece i torched off of what was a cutting edge off a large bucket of a machine.
Thanks you! and i do need a deeper quench tank. Your sounds great
I use W2 at times. Making limited runs of my professional grade throwing knives i make and sell. Its good stuff once you get your heat treat and temper cycle down. I use Parks 50 to quench it in. Mostly i use 5160, SUP9, and occasionally 80crv2
Real good steel choices for a throwing knife!
Stunning knife. I look forward to see more of your videos.
Thank you I appreciate that. Have a spectacular day!!
I have made 2 knives with 01 tool steel. A Nakiri and a paring knife. I personally love the steel. I use a propane forge with a K-Meter thermocouple and parks AAA. Your knife looks great with the coffee patina.
Yeah, and I see nothing wrong with that method but so many people do it’s almost weird. I made a few knives with a propane forge myself and they turned out just fine.
Lookin’ good my man!
Thank you this one was fun
Cool knife dude, I started making knives check mine out see what you think, I subscribed to your channel
Sister in law? That is the torture test!
One thing is for sure this is no torture test vid
@@AaronJohnson1979 Would love to see one in the future with that metal though. You do a fantastic job with pretty much every heat treat from what I've seen.
@@mikafoxx2717 well thank you and the video right after this one I did torture test the steel and it did great! heat treating is one of my favorite parts of knife make for some reason lol it’s a fun I enjoy it and glad I can share
And here I am feeling crazy thinking most people sharpen their supersteels to like 20-25 degrees per side. meanwhile I'm sharpening my cheap steels to like 12.5 for kitchen and a scandi at 11.5.. That being said, incredible performance from a great heat treat. Love the freezer cryo
Thank you and yeah, you do get probably an extra HRC point from just a home freezer a little more from Dry Ice and if you can get your hands on liquid that would be ideal
Very interesting projects, I have a concrete / masonry diamond wheel that I bet would flatten that real quick! 😃
Still on the project mate, hope you figure it out and start a stone making business 😁
Lol
@@AaronJohnson1979 buy aarons stones now only a little gritty 🤣😅
@@knifesharpeningnorway 😆
The bondo one seems interesting to try an make. I wonder if mixing a 10k aluminum oxide with bondo would act like those old razor hones in barber shops. Is the fiberglass resin abrasive on its own? Does it slurry? (make mud when lapped with I diamond plate)
Yeah, the possibilities are endless. It’s kind of fun to do though.
Your projects are always a lot of fun. I thought the sandpaper micarta was a cool idea, even if it didn't work out.
It might’ve worked, but I shouldn’t have put water on it maybe if I would’ve kept it dry
I live in an apartment so I can't make my own knife and I was wondering if you can make a simple, custom knife. I live in Manitoba Canada. Would be awesome.
I will let you know if I start making knives to sell as of right now i am not. And you can make a knife with just a file outside on a stump. Just because you live in an apartment building don’t let that stop you if that’s what you wanna do. Nothing can stop you from accomplishing something that you want.
True indeed. Hopefully this year I will be able to get a house and then I'll can make my own furnace and get some more tools that I need. The whole place might go up in flames if I did that here!
Hi, I just came across your video. Do you make and sell custom knives to order? How can I get in touch with you about this? Thanks!
Currently, I am not selling knives, but maybe in the future if I do, I will update it on my channel. Thanks for watching.
Stop for the love of god🐐
Lol!
