Not everything turns out the way we'd like. It's easy to only show success on a video, but that isn't real life. Skill and experience comes from many behind the camera failures, but now you get to see what happened with this one.

I explain why this knife is scrap + little update

I've had a lot of questions / comments about this knife project that went wrong, so I'll try to clarify why it's not a knife I can finish or put out there. Also I have a little pre-announcement for folks in the west Texas area. firecreekforge.com patreon.com/firecreekforge #scrap #blacksmith #knife

    Can I ask for your oppinion? For someone who has never sharpened and just wants to sharpen his knives, do you recommend buying the "SHARPAL 162N" (70$) and trying to learn, a good 400 or 1000 Grid Stone (55 / 75 $), or the "Work Sharp Precision Adjust Sharpener WSBCHPAJ-I"(80$) will do a easiest and good enought job?

    • @FireCreekForge
      @FireCreekForge Před 3 dny

      I would suggest the one which you're most comfortable with. The stone will require a bit of a learning curve, but I find it to be the most versatile and efficient.

    • @jlpowell51
      @jlpowell51 Před 2 dny

      I have both this stone and the precision adjust. I'd go with the stone. Learning how to sharpen is about 5% common sense and 95% practice. The only thing I use the precision adjust for now and then is reprofiling a blade. Meanwhile I can sharpen practically anything on the diamond stone in a few minutes. Get or make a basic strop as well and you're good to go. Another option is to save a bit of money and get yourself a Work Sharp Guided Field Sharpener. That's 2 plates, a couple ceramic rods and a strop all in one piece, including angle guides. You can learn on that just as easily and while you might want something bigger down the road it'll still be useful in your toolbox/glovebox/hunting jacket/etc.

    • @SHEagleYT
      @SHEagleYT Před 2 dny

      @@jlpowell51 Thank you, the one you recommend to save money, I find it small. The knife that I am most interested in sharpening well is a 10" (25cm). In principle I am leaning towards the diamond plate (which requires less maintenance than stones), but I am afraid that I will need many hours of practice before I can do it well, or even ruin the knife.

    • @jlpowell51
      @jlpowell51 Před 2 dny

      @@SHEagleYT Get the diamond stone and then get a cheap knife to practice with if you're really worried about ruining your current knife. About the only thing you could do that wouldn't be easily recoverable is scratch up the flat of the blade, which IMHO isn't a big deal if it is a knife you're going to actually use instead of a show piece/collector's item.

    Same here. Ordered one yesterday after watching the Outdoor 55 videos. Thank you for confirming that it's a great product. I'm a beginner at this, so it's comforting knowing that I am not getting ripped off. I just went over my boiling point with using dull knives in the house. And using those carbide sharpeners are just horrible. So after watching these videos I feel confident that our kitchen knives will be usable again.

  • @tonyhallen1062
    @tonyhallen1062 Před 5 dny

    Do the tiny cracks weaken the blade or just ruin the visual effect of the pattern? It didn't look like there were any inclusions and the two steels forged to make a good weld. If the blade was strong and had other qualities you wanted, the knife would still be fully functional?

    I like the smaller hatchets. I recently forged my version of the trail hatchet mixed with the carving hatchet because i wanted to design a belt sheath. It came out nice but took a long time to build the sheath. Try out water buffalo leather when you get a chance, its an amazing leather for axe sheaths

    It kinda looks like it’s more a diffusion / erosion mixing between the two alloys with a phase transition that gives those tiny islands that look like fragments. Might be worth asking the knife steel nerds dude for his perspective.
