In this video, I make a secret knife with a bamboo handle and sheath. It was simple to make and looks quite nice. hope you enjoy the video. #bambooknife #bambootanto #hiddenknife
Quick note: Don't use glass as a quenching vessel. You are at risk of a "thermal shock" break when you add the +800˚C steel into the 20-50˚C oil (always pre-heat your oil btw). If the glass breaks, it will dump the oil out and may even catch on fire...
Кончик пережег, причем, что до, что после закалки. Заготовка во время закалки не прогрета не то, что до нужной температуры, она прогрета неравномерно. В итоге клинок полный брак, до первой серьезной нагрузки
I'd be a little concerned with just using epoxy to hold the tang in place. You really want it to be sandwiched between something solid. Still a super cool build though.
And that was Gorilla Glue epoxy which is glorified rubber cement and the worst on the market. Plus, past that solid membrane he pierced for the tang, the bamboo is a hollow tube. There's next to nothing holding that blade in place.
It's amazing, the knife is kept secret, people are prejudiced it's bamboo, though none other than a knife that looks like it's just a small piece of bamboo. Very creative. Knife sharpness it also makes you shake your head. Great buddy. Greetings and keep working.
That is not an edge shaping jig it is a bevel jig. Edge sharpening comes last, that is for ginding the bevels....If you google plans for knife bevel or grinding jig I am sure you will find many plans. I make knives, and used a jig in my earlier days while learning, and still do sometimes on long pieces that require a full flat grind, but generally I free hand it all now....make 500+ you start gaining the knack....lol....I know Walter Sorrells who makes great blades and has tips videos on you tube has plans for making grinding jigs, and fullering tools etc...
The question I raised was not if Bamboo is strong, it was should you use it when it’s wet ! The reason is because it will shrink when it drys out potentially making the blade loose !!!
I will translate it right because i speak spanish. Reasons to have a *Tactical Bamboo* 😈 -It's Pretty -It's Secret -It's Sharp Fuck, and even it's tactical🤑 (And even it's tactical it's a spanish meme, i don't know if there's a english version or not, but its fine.) You're welcome.
