What questions do you have about this process? I didn't cover transferring your design on paper to your work, perhaps on another episode.
I'm curious about square or rectangular gravers. for gold/ silver inlay?
@@madrail9103 I’m still totally new and getting into inlays now. I’ve heard a good way is to start with a standard v-cut graver and then move to flat graver to widen the “v” and then do your undercuts.
@@TyrellKnifeworks ahh right that makes sense. I've done a bit of v groove engraving (the hammering method) and the main thing I struggled with was the depth, and also the lack of a spinning vise. I want to get into it at some point soon but I feel I need to improve my other skills a bit more first.
@@madrail9103 The hammering method is really hard to get consistent depth. You really need a pneumatic engraver for consistent work... they are expensive though.
Ketika and bilang pengukir lindsay murah uuh itu sangat menyakitkan, aku baru belajar ukir jangan membeli lindsy graver mebli handle asah dan beberapa template aku tidak mampu sampai sekarang😢😢😢
Congratulations for being featured in Blade magazine this month. I'm glad to see you are getting some well deserved recognition.
Thanks!! I haven’t actually seen the issue yet. I’ll have to grab a copy or three. ❤️
I tried to get into engraving. Doing the engraving and getting good at it is one thing. Making the design is my biggest hurtle. I can’t draw (not well enough) or have the imagination to apply it to paper. It takes a real artist to create a design.
Yes, the design aspect is tough. You gotta practice that as much as the engraving itself. Thanks for watching, Erik!
Alec Steele did a bunch of videos a while back on engraving. I think he even took an entire course on it. Very tough nut to crack. Pretty much an entire skill set on its own. The biggest thing is it’s really hard to fix errors. I have no doubt you’ll become proficient…practice, practice, practice. Take a course if you can find one. I think Alec went to one in TX. Good luck with it! Looking forward to seeing it in future videos.
Yeah, I’ve looked for some courses in my area but nothing available right now. I’ve started to go through Steve Lindsay’s online courses, they’re pretty good. Thanks for taking a look, Jason.
Your knives are already beautiful but this will definitely take them to the next level!
I hope so, James! It will be a fun learning experience I think.
Cooool! I just got an idea to try to make one out of an old spring loaded center- punch and a small compressor.
And what do you know. There are several videos on CZcams do do exactly that!
That’s pretty cool! Let me know how it works. Thanks for watching, Michael.
@@TyrellKnifeworks caaann do.
Very interesting! And that are some great tools, you'll probably have a lot of fun getting into engraving with them. can't wait to see what you'll make in the future
It’s a rabbit hole for sure. It’s an art form in itself that will take a long time to get good at I’m afraid. Thanks for watching!
Love watching you take the next step, in your amazing journey, my brother! That's exactly why I support your channel! Keep evolving, and thank you so much, for sharing your talents! 😎👍🏻🔨🔥🗡️
Thanks so much for following the channel, Bob! I appreciate you, brother!
Looks like lots of fun. Best of luck in your journey at mastering yet another element of your craft! Thanks for sharing!
If you’re not learning, you’re stagnating. 😜 Thanks for watching, Stephen!
Thanks for sharing the beginning of this journey with us! It's going to be really cool to watch as you move forward with this.
Thanks for checking it out! It’s definitely another rabbit hole. 😜
Engraving really is a whole other craft unto itself. I mean heck the really best ones its more or less all they do for a living, mostly because it takes ages to learn and even more to do the designs themselves. Might be worth picking up a course on it with someone who can help you along and get you started.
Yup, I've already looked at some courses. Nothing available in my area at the moment so I'm going through some online learning provided by Steve Lindsay's site. Some great learning plans on there. 👍🏻
I really enjoyed this n look forward to anything u do with this
Thanks for your support, Travis! I think the first few will be simplistic but they’ll improve with time. 👍
Great device. When you're a pro at it, you'll do amazing things
I hope so. It’ll take a while to get good at it but it’s really fun. Thanks for checking it out!
I’m happy for you and this is really gonna up your game
Thanks for checking it out! I hope to get better on this craft with time so my knives can get even better! 👍
@@TyrellKnifeworks can’t wait to see what engravings you do on the elven sword!
@@huntintrailmetals9343 don’t get expectations set too high, I’m a total newb. 🤣
@@TyrellKnifeworks just like all skills practice makes perfect!
I've thought about opening this pandora box and I love the thought of doing some engraving for inlay work, but I have yet to find time to even be in the shop enough. Thanks for posting....I may yet open this box in the future.
It’s a pretty long learning curve I’m noticing. I can do simple things but I think I need to spend hours just on the basics before I can move onto to anything else. Thanks for watching.
Love your graver setup, cost as much as my last vehicle... lol
Im sure it will pay for itself before years end, you are fadt necoming a Master Bladesman Denis, im sure grving will be no problem for you to master too...;-)
Greetings from Deutschland, and keep on making those Master works of Art we call knives....
Thanks for your support! Yes, it’s expensive to get into engraving for sure. Hopefully it adds that extra level to my knives.
Great video! I actually have been practicing for about 5 years and just started selling my pieces. I don't do anything crazy but I use a Lindsay palm control. Yikes! That sounds like you need to turn your idle adjustment down there buddy.🤣 Try doing some border leaves on some practice plates it's a great way to get started. Keep us posted on your journey to learning engraving.👍
Yeah, I did have the idle a little high on that recording. I'm still fine tuning it. I'm so busy with my Journeyman knives right now I haven't gotten back to practicing. Hopefully in Q3. Thanks for watching
great video denis cant wait to see some engraving on your knives and that sword , when is your journeyman test?
The test was moved to the 29th. Thanks for your support!
شكرا لكم ولجهودكم ولقناتكم الرائعه
أعجبتني الترجمه شكرا للمترجم
أنا سعيد لأنك وجدت المحتوى إعلاميًا وترفيهيًا! شكرا للمشاهدة!
Im eagerly awaiting the last episode of The Elven Short Sword :)))
I’m hoping to finish this weekend, but it will be tight! Thanks for watching!
A "magnifying glasse" would be a great addition to this air-graver
I have a set of loupes that I use. Those work well, short of a microscope. Thanks for watching.
Magnification can cost $5 to $5k, depending on own budget and whether such high cost will provide returns in dollars or (personal joy, of it is for hobby).
In my very limited experience with manual engraving, it is extremely difficult and time consuming. I lack the patience! I'm gonna let Kyle Royer and Sam Towns have all that fun, and they're both extremely good at it.
Yup, it’s both of those! it’s fun though, and something new to learn. 👍
in germany we have a saying "übung macht den meister" means kinda "practice makes the master"
i know nothing about engraving but i think it was a good start
This craft definitely takes some practice for sure. If I keep doing it on blades, I'm sure I'll get better slowly. 👍🏻. Thanks for watching!
@@TyrellKnifeworks im sure we will see a significant progress
your knifes are beautiful
Great info as I have been wondering about how engraving works lately but haven't dug into it yet. Do people use patterns like leather work or do you have to do it free hand?
Most people would use a pattern they transfer onto the work, like a tattoo artist would. Thanks for watching, Chad!
It looks so easy on camera.. I've been there.. Good tools are very important, so It was definitely good investment! How did you assemble engraver to air compressor? This little pipe/hose is not typical diameter, right?
I already had the quick-disconnect fitting for my compressor that fit the diameter of the hose. Those are easy to find at any hardware store (at least here in the US). I did the engraving on the copper fittings last night. It went well. Pretty simple design, but it got my feet wet. 😜
I bet that sword is going to be out of this world! Also what about if you were to get them laser cut stick ons that would have your logo and initials then engrave over it so everyone will come out the same!
I'll be printing the design on the computer and then transferring it to pieces. You'll see how I do this in the video, stay tuned! 👍🏻
I hope engraving is something you don’t like because that would be a great Patreon giveaway😂
Hahaha... not a chance. There's a bit of a difference between a $200 forge and $2k worth of top of the line engraving equipment. How about a t-shirt instead? 🤣🤣
Can you transfer a design to the workpiece and engrave over it?
Yes, that's exactly what I'll be showing on the sword. Stay tuned! 👍🏻
It’s been 2 years. How’s the engraving going?
I haven’t had much time to practice actual engraving. I use it mostly for gold/silver inlay on guards and fittings. Thanks for watching.
do u sell the knifes u make ?
All the knives you see on the channel get sold. They go to my Patreon members first then a week later to the public on my website (link in the description). Thanks for watching!
Очень отличная новость! Удачи в развитии мастерства гравировки Ваших изделий!
Огромный привет с Киева, Украина!!!
Спасибо за поддержку! Я надеюсь продолжать совершенствоваться, чтобы сделать свои ножи более впечатляющими. 👍🏻
🦍
A Craftsman of any kind is only as good as his tools
Yes, true that. Thanks for taking a look, David!
but a bad craftsman cant make a masterpiece even with the best tools😉
@@eidontkehr4081 yes that is true
copper shark haha
Well, kinda, I think it looked more like a carp. 🤣. Still learning. Thanks for watching, Greg!
you teach yourself better discipline if you draw a line grid on one practice piece, circles on another, instead of going haywire all over a plate
This was just for the video, not a practice session. Thanks for watching
