My name is Isaiah Washington, I am 20 years old from Auburn Maine. I have been making knives for 3 years, the past year an a half I have been making knives full time. I intern at a local blacksmiths school here in Auburn. My goal is to create the finest working and most beautiful knives I can create. Another Goal is to upload a video of me making these hand forged knives once a week, so be sure to subscribe and be able to watch me create more!
In this video I forge a paring knife from 1080 high carbon steel. Taking it all the way from raw materials and making a finished knife. I use a hidden tang construction and stack two different woods for the handle, aswell as brass.
Make sure you subscribe to see more of my videos!

I have just found your channel. Thank you for putting out this video, showing the steps in how you make your knives and talking through it all.

Wow, I gotta say I actually learned a lot from just this one video. Great stuff man. If I could suggest anything it would be trying to refine your video making skills but as far as content and information goes that was awesome. Really glad I found this, keep it up!

I like the use of the respirator but I see a distinct lack of safety flip flops.

nice work, i can see a lot of improvement from your earlier work. when hand sanding id start at 150 grit and work up from there, 500 might take a lot longer to get all the little scratches out. nick wheeler has a fantastic vid on hand sanding which id definitely recommend. also i wouldn't use your belt grinder for polishing the way you use it with the scotchbrite, try hand sanding to about 2000 grit then buffing for a much cleaner finish

@ZayKnives 6 лет назад

I don't ever polish that high on any of my knives, the smallest thing leaves a terrible scratch on a finish like. Scotchbrite and buffing after hand sanding leaves a really pretty finish.

Zay Knives How do u sell on facebook

@ZayKnives 6 лет назад

I have a page dedicated to my knives, I post them and sometimes people want to buy them.

@pierfrancescoforlani6912 6 лет назад

Why do you grind the bevel after the heatreat?

@ZayKnives 6 лет назад

Great question. Short answer is that it GREATLY reduces the probability of cracking or warping. And sense I'm forging, I forged pretty close to a finished product so there isn't actually a whole lot of edge that needs to be ground away.

@pierfrancescoforlani6912 6 лет назад

Zay Knives thank you for the answer

@benjaminblair6098 4 года назад

Love the vid, do want to say though, carbon steels do not hold an edge better than stainless. A cheap Chinese stainless steel kitchen knife will dull faster because it is cheap and poor quality, not because it is stainless. Unfortunately, however, stainless is much harder to work and heat treat for a non-professional smith.

@erikcourtney1834 2 года назад

High carbon does indeed hold an edge better and takes a much finer edge than any hardenable stainless does. Any good bladesmith or professional chief knows and says the same thing. Stainless is just easier to care for. Some do make good knifes don’t get me wrong. The cheap 420 and 440s ss do suck indeed.

@benjaminblair6098 2 года назад

@@erikcourtney1834 Hey thanks for taking the time to reply. I certainly do not claim to be a good bladesmith, just a hobbyist. My position comes partially from the work of the Knife Steel Nerds and Jay Fisher, both of whom are well respected in the field. Highly recommend giving them both a read, as they do the argument much more justice than I could.

Nice work, but man you gotta get some better tongs so you're not chasing your work all over the place!

Ok content but just a few tips, lose the music. Most people here would rather hear the sound of metal being hammered or silence. Also, try lowering your pitch, you are shouting not talking and hard to listen to after a few minutes.
