I have watched numerous videos by you, I love them, and they are great to watch. BUTT, watching you sharpen the finished knife on the belt sander blows my mind every time I see it..
🇺🇸 I was in light Infantry back in the 80s. That would have been the perfect knife for me great job
Beautiful knife! One of the best I've seen on CZcams. I love your videos. So detailed! Thanks!
Hey 👋 man how you doing buddy ohhh yeah!!..baby let's get hunting nice job bro 👍 I'm in love with it blessings 🙌 🙏
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
Absolutely cool knife. I love the way that looks. Excellent work!
brilliant stone wash diy!.
never thought of that.it will be a nice little edc to carry.hope to see the sheath making for it!!
Great knife! Loved the build process and the completed product. Really like the lanyard along with the o.d. handle.
Very nice design.
Another awesome build. Thank you for the video.
That knife is a beauty. I love it! Great Job! Nice tut.
If you assemble and shape the handle dry with just a dab of super glue to keep it together, you can disassemble it, etch the entire blade. Then epoxy scales at the end, using acetone to carefully wipe off any squeeze out. I do this on damascus full tang knives because it is impossible to etch correctly afterwards. Just a tip!
Great Tip! Thanks for that.
Very nice enjoy the video I also make knives but my biggest problem is when it comes to sharpening knowing what belt to start with and what belt to end with and how to run the 2x72 clockwise or counterclockwise running
Another great knife that I could only wish for! Good job champ.
Very nice work!
Great looking knife & great build presentation!! Acid etch & stone wash compliment the olive drab G-10 - Thank you - David
you probably dont care but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid lost the account password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Colt Torin instablaster =)
@Marcel Patrick I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Marcel Patrick It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
@Colt Torin happy to help =)
Ferric chloride will not hurt your hands, however it will stain them a lovely shade of yellow. So for that reason use gloves. I like the simplicity of this knife, it's a good looking cutter. File steel gets a bit of a bad rep but, I've made some great knives with it and for hobby knife makers like myself it's readily available, and really cheap option if you have a flea market nearby.
Good to know. I've been lucky enough to not get any on my hands yet. Thanks for watching.
Nice video. Nice knife! Teach us the snake knot please. You're a great teacher.
Thank you for sharing. Love your work
Very nice working
So beautiful, so classy. I like so much .
I’m ready to own one... exactly like this one!
Очень нравятся Ваши ножи. Продолжайте в том же духе. Творческих успехов Вам.
Nice knife.
What a beauty....outstanding !!
Good stuff brother, this absolutely is my favorite knife so far and would definitely want one just like that! Just have to send you a wrench or file or something. Lol good content.
Um excelente trabalho que você fez,parabéns!
I love that knife
Thank you so much!
Really nice knife. I also have an old file I need to make a knife from.
Sweet
Nice knife! I love it.
For that stone wash, get a long bolt and put it through the lid, and then put it on a drill at low speed so you don’t have to shake it
Good stuff by the way awesome knife
Nice
Just a small line from the movie the golden child with Eddie Murphy.
I WANT THE KNIFE! PLEASE!!
Fantastic knives, I really like the Riverlet knive. What drill bits are you using to drill the files with?
Beautiful work.
What is the manufacturer is your belt sander? How much did it cost you?
awesome knife love the design
BEAUTIFUL!!! Do you sell the knives you make ? Would love to own one or a hundred.
Yes I do. Feel free to send me an email theriversexperience@yahoo.com
I think if you tapered the tang it would add a ton of class the the knifes overall look. Other than that I really like the blade profile and green scales are killer. Nice job thanks for sharing.
Love that beefy spine bro
Nice work mate 👍👍👍
i do like that knife... can you make them longer?
beautiful knife
Love your channel. Please tell me where you got your 2x72 sander.I’m trying to get into knife making.
Mine is a KMG 2x72 but I am looking into getting a 2x72 from Brian House on: czcams.com/users/HouseWork123featured
I like that knife
Specially the handle
Perfect
Absolutely brilliant. 👌👌👌What type of acid are you using?
I use a 50/50 mixture of ferric chloride and distilled water.
Super;
Another excellent tutorial, thank you.
Two questions if I may.
1. What acid are using, is it ferric chloride?
2. Is there a link to access some your knife profiles?
Than you.

Great Shop Talk Tuesday question. I will answer this in the 4/14/2020 video.
How do you gage the angle of the blade bevel jig so the bevel goes completely and exactly from top to bottom? No flat on the blade. Thanks!
I did a test grind on a piece of mild steel. I don't really go by angles or degrees, I do most of my grinds by eye and what's worked in the past.
@@theriversexperience9383 Got it! I'm doing a copy, with a few mods, of this knife. Thanks!!
What is the acid that yours for this? And, what is the purpose of the liner? Thanks. It's a beautiful knife. Incredible!
The Acid is Ferric Chloride and distilled water at a 50/50 mixture. The liners are just a decorative accent.
@@theriversexperience9383 Thanks! I’m gathering the basics and hope to make my first knife soon. So glad I found your channel.
Love it brother.
Id like to have one just like this.
bellissima lama, posso chiederti a che serve il foro sul bisello?
Great job God bless
My friend, greetings from Ecuador, espectacular this video , a question, how I can prepar the acid that you use in this video, tks for your help, my friend
Buen trabajo pero ponte guantes no te vayas a lesionar un saludo desde España
Good lookin knife 👍
What style knife did you base your model after ?
👌
Nice work
I want one!
Great knife. Was that a 12 inch file?
Love the channel! I have a question about electro etching. I tried it on 1095 with a car battery charger (plugged in). It did ok, but didn't put the steel like I wanted. I'm wondering if I need a higher amperage. Any help would be appreciated!
I use mine on the highest settings so 12V and set on "Large Battery" mode.
Newbie question. How long do you leave the knife in the forge so it's soft enough to drill holes in it? How did you get the large hole drilled through the file?
I bring the files up to a bright red then close off the forge, I let them cool to room temp. Typically it's for about an hour or so.
@@theriversexperience9383 Thanks!!!
@@theriversexperience9383 I did that and I still had to use a new masonry bit to get the hole drilled although it was easier. Should I leave the blade in the forge longer next time? Thanks!
Very nice well done. Did I miss you finish grinding the bevels after heat treat?
I ground the bevels 95% done before the heat treat and only needed to use a 400 grit belt then the scotch brite belt after the heat treat. I only showed the scotch brite part to save time.
Cool knife man. I'd definitely add it to my EDC rotation. Question: Have you ever tried to acid etch the pins after your done with the handle? I'm curious what that would look like
I have not but I might try it out.
Very nice finish, well done. What type of acid do you use?
Its just ferric chloride and distilled water at a 50/50 ratio.
It's a crime you don't have more subscribers - nice work though...
What can I say .... good job man , absolutely good job . Hrc?
Love the knife. what is the ratio you use for your acid
I use a 50/50 Ferric Chloride and Distilled Water.
how much dose it cost?
Bro when are you going to take my money for one of your knives!
Only one I need yur make
The knife is nice, but I'm not a fan of the Paracord.
How much do you sell it?
How do you anneal the file?
I heat it to critical temperature in my forge then close off the forge and let it cool as slow as possible.
Nice knife, military knife with a hole in the blade? This knife will break on the first day. Sorry for my harsh tone.
It's all good. It's more military inspired in color and finish. The actual use for this knife is for hunting and skinning. They just wanted a military theme. When it comes to strength, I test all my knives by chopping through a 2x4 twice plus I drive the tip into the 2x4 and pop out a piece of wood with the tip, this knife passed with flying colors.
WOOHOO I got the first like lol
🙏🇨🇦
Pl send me dear
