This knife just screams “stab someone” Hey folks – I have been working with Spencer over at SAR Global Tool to make a DVM Contractor Fighting Knife. Below is his work in progress and some notes from him. ~James G [Spencer from SAR Global Tool] Hey everyone, I have been working with James for the last few months on a knife for him and possibly become for sale in the DVM store.
Based on what his ideas I put this design to paper. The design is a fixed blade which is 9 1/4″ long 5″ handle 4 1/4″ blade, the blade features a modified tip sometimes referred as “harpoon” I transfer the drawing to “lexan glass” to make a solid pattern, lexan is awesome stuff it holds drill tolerance, machines great, shapes great, tough and fairly cheap. Now I can transfer to the steel which for these proto’s will be S30V The profiles are shaped to the lines and knives are ready for drilling. Then I come back through with a precision reamer and make it pretty much dead nuts on. First prototype before the heat treat U.S. Linerlock tutorial | CUSTOM BLADEWORKS. I promised before to make a tutorial about one of my folding knives.During the making of my backup 2 folder I took a lot of pictures of each step.Now I have collected the best pictures in order to give it a try.This tutorial only describes few of the methods I am using, for each knife I try other techniques and tools to increase the quality.This tutorial is a good example how to make a folding knife with the minimum machines and tools.Maybe good for people who wants to start with knifemaking.Other processes like sandblasting, encarving, etching, anodizing,… are not included into this tutorial.After all there goes a lot of work into knifemaking.
How to start ? What do you need ? Of course a good place to work because you are going to make noise, dust .You need place for some machines.Also the whole proces can’t be done within a day so you need place for everything. About your tools and materials ? About safety ? Don’t think, it won’t happen to me!
What knifeparts do you need ? The knife pattern. Fighter Step by Step. A little over a year ago Keith Montgomery contacted me and wanted me to make a(edit to add: Loveless style) knife for him.We exchanged quite a few emails working out the type of knife Keith wanted. From the start we knew it would be a large fighter but we had to work around the set of interior mammoth ivory that Keith sent me to put on the knife.Here is the pattern we agreed on, and the blade blank. 8" blade a little over 1 1/4" wide at the guard and 13 1/2" OAL, blade steel is 1/4" CPM-154 Holes drilled in tang for bolts and we decided to use a 5/16" thong tube.
Using a 8" wheel to take some meat off the tang to make tapering a little easier. Tapering the tang. Using a 4 1/2" wheel I take some more material from the center of the tang. More to come.Charles. Tremp selective. Voir le sujet - tuto pliant par Ruben Calo. [QUOTE=Ruben Calo]This is one of the projects I'm currently working on. Since I'll be finishing it soon, here are some process pictures, I hope you enjoy them! It's made based on the last folder on the following page, but with a 4" blade. Profiled blade and drawn liners. Cut and drilled liners. Shaped and drilled backspacer. Nickel silver add-on for the backspacer presented in place. Ground blade and pivoting parts. Stacked up. In place. Close up. Filing an end of a nickel silver rod to make it flat. Heating it to make it bendable. Red hot. Bending it in a circular shape to make a lanyard ring. Last step. Since it was too big for the intended purposes, I had to cut a piece off.
Borax to weld it close. Welding it. Closed ring. Of course, once the ring is finally welded, you realize that you forgot to put the other piece inside so you gotta saw it open again... Perfect now. Welding it close again. Presented in place. Tada! Assembled bare folder. Ruben. The Stock Removal Knife Tutorial - Part 1 - One of the moderators asked me, some years ago if I would do a tutorial using the stock removal method for making a knife. I will refer to the FAQ post by Big_Bear, in which he has linked to the great series by Joe Talmadge over at Blade Forums. Finally, for those that wish to really look at the nitty-gritty details of knife making I suggest reading the information created by the late Bob Engnath and kept up as a tribute to him over at: Bob's Bookcase. Part one of the tutorial will cover layout and profiling. Later posts will discuss blade grinding, heat treating, and handle installation and finishing.
The steps described here can generally be used for either carbon or stainless steels, except for the thermal treatments. Stainless and high alloy steels such as D2 or L6 require precise temperature control and the use of an accurate furnace or high temperature salts. I must post a disclaimer about my photography - it is pretty bad. Mostly, I am self taught. Let us get started. Voir le sujet - réalisation d'un couteau fixe par Todd Begg. Création des serrations pour le pouce au dos du couteau : Ponçage à la main des serrations : On va ensuite passer au traitement thermique en atmosphère neutre, avec la mise en place d'un étui thermique pour le couteau avant sa mise au four : Le couteau est chauffé à 1975°F pendant 40minutes : refroidissement à l'air avant normalisation pour une durée de 1h18minutes : Cela fait à présent 15heures de boulot sur ce couteau Ponçage globale de la surface du couteau :

Bonjour a tous ! Un Wip étape par étape d'un rasoir en Sandwich.Comme je suis motivé pour faire les photos en même temps, je fais un sujet spécial.J'ai trouvé du vieux fer, du vrai, surement du 19eme Siècle, je ne sais pas dater.. j'ai enfin récupéré de la roue de charette, les anciennes voitures a cheval , une de 1,40 cm de diamètre et une de 1 mètre. et une barre de fer que j'estimais être du vrai vieux fer avec fibrage et tout donc j'ai fait une révélation du fer pour être sur, et c'est tout bon, il est magnifique.Donc on part d'une barre, et d'un bout de 115W8 pour faire le San Mai.
La barre de fer les rasoirs, un carré de 25 ou 30mm Polissage d'une face de chaque plat pour que ça soit propre et que la soudure se fasse tranquille Voila rangé dans la forge, plus qu'a attendre l'arrivé du Borax pour la suite.
