About Simple Little Life:
This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

The epoxy probably set in the grooves when you were bedding the tang. I use paste wax when i do it then add grooves in my tang just before final glue up to help the epoxy hold the knife.

@jamesm3268 4 года назад

Use Vaseline for the tang and only a very light thin coating not wax leave in for 5 mins only or less once it's aligned clean off the Vaseline and reinsert 10 mins or so later and you will be fine. lastly holes through the tang provide a better means of mechanical retention compared to rounded outside curves. Sweet work Regards fifty50 knives.

@vandelftcrafts2958 4 года назад

Wax only works realy well if the tang is more or less smooth, the grooves/notches in your tang make nice pockets for the epoxy to harden in and make it hard or impossible to take out without any damage to the handle. One way would be to make the grooves/notches after you glued the Handle. Or... you could just do it like you have always done it, seemed to work just fine for you. Loved this vid!

Stress fractures at the ricasso, due to non-rounded edges, are a thing seen it happen a bunch of times on Forged in Fire (even after the competitors beeing warned in the first round. So not just a theory. You did great by playing it safe. Very nice knife, btw.

@Simplelittlelife 4 года назад

Thanks you! I don’t watch a lot of FIF though I enjoy it when in do. I remember in grade school anytime we were turning a part down in a lathe they wouldn’t have us radius any internal 90 degree cuts. We had to calculate the numbers once with engineering manuals and it’s incredible how much stronger that little radius makes a part👍

@Kolvert 4 года назад

@@Simplelittlelife same goes when designing electronic circuits, no 90 degree angles in the tracks.

@Kolvert 4 года назад

@@Simplelittlelife BTW I just remembered that stress fractures are also avoided by any kind of gas, propane, butane, etc. manufacturers, that's why the containers are round (even though they are less space-efficient). In order to minimize leaks and ruptures, due to internal pressure or mishandling, they avoid edges.

@vikmoj2426 4 года назад

About the radius at 3:25: It actually IS a thing! There are two different problems you have to face, static stress and fatigue stress. It's relatively easy to prevent the first one (you can't bend the steel bar with your bare hand), but if there is a sharp angle, that's the place where material is stressed the most and where will eventually a fatigue fracture iniciate. Any kind of radius can relax this at least a little bit. This should be definitely your concern if your knife is made of thin steel. If you overdo the radius (kinda enter the bar), trust me or not, it's even safer in terms of fatigue (of course this will worsen the static toughness). Fatigue fracture can be seen with cheap kitchen knife, where they spare money on every part that isn't visible. Radius designed for preventing a fatigue is a thing in shaft design and some are ostensibly weakening the part, but in the end, fatigue is what really matters. Summarized, it's even safer to make a hole in the corner with a drill than keeping a sharp angle. Anyway sorry for my english
