How I add an anso pattern to G10 Scales
This is a great texture, I'm going to use it as a present for my dad. Thanks for the video
VERY well done! For such a young man your tutorial’s are EXCELLENT and you gracefully credit others when that credit is due. VERY professional. Thank you for sharing!
I'm happy to help! Thank you very much for watching!!
Thanks for the great tutorial Caleb. I used the technique to make scales from some 3000 year old petrified bog oak. Took some effort as the wood was as hard as iron but also as black as coal! Buffed to gorgeous lustre and looks fantastic.
I'm sure you use a respirator g10 dust is some nasty stuff. nice job.
+david smith carcinogenic is nasty.
Kike Tarifa D. Hey! Sorry I couldn't respond. For some reason it wont let me respond to linked comments. Found a work around:) Yes its boiled linseed oil! I use it to bring the color out though, not for polishing. Also the material im working with is g10 not micarta. G10 is a glass filled resin and micarta is paper, linen, cloth filled resin. Thanks for watching!!!
Something I found that works for polishing is "Johnson Paste Wax" and med speed buffer. Great vids, keep up the great work, thanks.
Very nicely done video....You brought out all the answers to my questions, as soon as I thought of them.
Glad to hear!! Thanks so much for watching!!!
thanks for the great tutorial, just finished doing up my worn smooth rat 3, I was thinking I was going to have to drop $40 for a new set of scales, but this method worked great. thanks again
There many ways to make handles! Horns, rocks, plastic, metal, wood ect ect 1 of the coolest ways is now. Taking plastic of all different colors and shave them to the shape you want and melt them into block to form handles. Can have any color you wish. Like blue and yellow ect.
Have you tried Ultre-X G10 by Norplex? There's G10 and then there's Ultre-X G10 which I think is cotton or paper or both but I'm not sure because the knife making sites aren't specific. Thanks
U make it look so easy man lol. I really appreciate your videos. They’ve helped me so much.
ww2 colorizer thank you! And no problem I’m glad I could help!!
Great Vid ,learned a lot .. Cutting that nail in half was a real WOW factor !
I will be following your how to vids . Thanks ...
Thanks! Glad you like the videos:) The nail video sure was a fun one:D
I came across this video and I know nothing of knife making but, beautiful work! Great job.
Outstanding job man! I really want to do this to a couple of my knives, but something tells me you make it look easier than it really is. Just subscribed and plan on following your videos. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much! With practice anything becomes easy😁👍
Turned out really nice, looks great! Thanks for sharing this technique brother. I'm gonna try using the same approach on a buck 119 with the those slippery grips it comes with. Thanks again and bless you and yours.
very classy vid. super informative step by steps with tips and i really like how you muted the sound as you dremel'd. you got me as a new subscriber...
I really appreciate you taking the time to make this video. I have been watching a lot of CZcams videos on knife handle's. I think if you would have moved the chair out of the way and moved your camera on the other side of the vice it would have been much easier to see how you blended the scales.
A brilliant tutorial, i'm a complete newbie to knife making and am glad I came across your channel. Have just subscribed and looking forward to your future videos, keep up the great work and regards from London ~Peace~
Zed Outdoors Thanks so much and I will do my best:) Thanks for watching!!!
Zed Outdoors His channel is great. I have used several of his tips to improve my noob skills.
This video was so helpful bro.
It helped me a lot and my blade looks amazing with that kinda handle, thanks 😊.
Love from India👍
Awesome! Glad you found it to be helpful 😁
Thanks sir, I just got into knife making and wanted to know this technique
Very cool. Thanks for sharing this technique
Very nice job young man. It looks good and I'm sure it sits in your hand nicely. Good video skills and spot on clear directions. Good job.
Robert Langley thank you very much!!! I really appreciate your compliments!
Very nice work thanx for the tip.
Great video. I will defiantly be following all of those steps to make my grips for my knife.
brilliant!, very well presented. I have a knife with scales way to slippy I'm going to give it a try Thanks peace always Bob
That is a cool looking handle
Very nice result; thanks for showing.
Wow this looks so incredibly awsome! Definetely trying that on my next knife.
Awesome work! Been looking for a good instructional video on how to do this. Thanks for sharing!
+Jimmy Symonds you are welcome! thanks for watching!
Great instructional video !!!
Good job, turned out real nice.
Nice thanks for the video! I am going to try this on a small Tac knife I just put handles on last nite (Micarta).
right on man! Thanks for watching! :D
great tutorial. i have a question, would that be the same tools i need on a stainless steel handles? thank you
NO JOKE: VERY SERIOUS!
awsome tutorial and very good job on the knife.
keep up the good work.
björken Thnak you very much!
Very cool buddy thanks for sharing
God bless you too brother.
Really like that texture !
This is a really nice, informative video.. .Really enjoyed it. And yup... it worked.
Very good video, thanks!!! And GOOD tip about the respirator!!!
Thank you very much!!!
I'm curious about how this technique would work on a steel knife handle? I also don't know if I would then need to paint or dura/cera coat it to avoid any rusting issues? As I would prefer not to use stainless steel or aluminum. Thanks for any thoughts, suggestions, or answers.
Nice
Looks great and fairly easy to do. I'm just finishing my first knife, gonna try it! thanks for the video (:
I just got a dremeli want to start modding my knives the budget knives first like make one of a kind scales I know you can do soooo much with a dremel my first success was sanding Dow a beed blast blade and got it to satin I was stoked that light the flame I’m not trying to go crazy custom I’m just bored of the same oh same scale and I don’t want to spend a lot of money anymore I’m sure you heard of Zach Stuff and his BM bugout projects there so awesome I bought 3 at separate time cuz the scales almost cost as much as the knife but I completed CF.TI. And just recently finished a micarta it broke me so I want to dye scales texture scales and make it my on I have several decent budget knives I came across your channel and was very impressed I want to learn to mod a doing clean. So I subbed you thanks for this video hopefully I can find more of your videos for inspiration thanks brother much props.
Very cool design, well done!

All brass!😁👍

r u sanding g10 without a respirator?
Wayne from tucson cancer is nasty
Thanks for making this man . I am not very good at knife making .do you have any pointers? thanks,
HL
Love everything you do man!
Thank you very much!
I bought Woodglut once and now I have lifetime access to thousands of woodworking projects.
What is the diameter of the Dremel sanding sleeve ?I have a knife with a ugly handle I would like to give your technique a try. Great video thanks for Sharing.
+10223220 its a half inch wheel. Thanks for watching!
Looks professional !!! Great Job !! Good Vid !!
tdawgee thank you! :D
Could I use this on Carbon Fiber? I got a budget blade and it’s slippery and I want to add grip to it. Thanx in advance.
like to do that to my Frost Viper......badass and really very ergonomically friendly and esthetically beautiful...got some boiled linseed......
thanx for nice instructional....am a believer too.....bless
Great tutorial. Would you happen to know how the same pattern is applied to the blade itself? Ala borka blades...
Same way essentially. Often times guys will apply the pattern with carbide router bits. Thanks for watching!:D
Thanks
Great video, thanks
Muy buen Video. Lindo trabajo.
Gracias!
Nicely done!
Thank you! :D
I want to do something like this to the polypropylene handle on my cold steel tactical katana. do u think I could do something similar on that material?
Nice job!
Nice work, Buddy!
SugarcreekForge Thank you! I've been a fan of your channel for awhile now! :D
Have you attempted this pattern hardwoods, either stabilized or not?
Have you also tried this on poly resin?
Rad! great video / tutorial but please brother get a dust mask on with that G10.
I was actually wearing one throughout the entire video. Just cant see it because of the angle. Thanks for the concern!
White Bone Knives what kind of mask do you need to use with g10?
juday chop any half face respirator will do, make sure it has a good seal on the face and has a pre-filter and a filter rated at p3
Awesome video
What's an alternative to the brass brush? Would just hand sanding it up a little bit work?
renewman28 yes that would do fine! Thanks for watching!
Nice!
:)Thanks for the video,
tried it on a knife that i made
Cool scales, how do you engrave your logo?
Wonder if this would work on grivery handles.
Can you get the same results with micarta following those exact steps?
Definitely!
good howto video, thanks!
nice job , the oil is it some special oil for wood or u can do any oil ? and thx for the video
Mossine Gago any should work! Thanks for watching!
Do the pins get hot when you are sanding the grooves?
Only if you stay in that spot for too long but I always keep the Dremel moving and use new sleeves so they don't build up too much friction
good job man!!!
Thanks!
amazing
Hey man, love your videos. But, could you share what the o.d. of the sanding wheel you are using, also the thickness of the knife scales. Thanks in advance,Wayne
Im not exactly sure but I think its around 1/2" You can use various diameters anyways and still get good results!
Thanks for the fast reply. That was my guess also (1/2") are the knife scales 1/4" or 3/8" thick? sorry to be such a bother. Thanks
these scales are at 1/4" and the blade is 5/32" Feels like a good fit in hand after it is contoured and textured.
Thanks for all the info you are a good dude man. Thanks again, Wayne
No problem Wayne! Thanks for watching!
Cool, many thanks!
You're welcome!
nice
Just a foolish question. Could similar results be achieved with a small half round file or maybe a large round file ? Just something that occurred to me to ask
Not foolish at all! You can certainly do this with a file. Just might take a bit longer. I wouldn't use a file on g10 though since it's filled with glass. The file would dull rather quickly. I would stick with micarta if you were to use a file.
@@WhiteBoneKnives thanks for the reply. You're finished product was excellent
Cool. Thank you for this tutorial.
You might want to use a dust mask though. Protect your lungs.
Great job! Can you tell what product you use to polish micarta? my English is not as good as I'd like and I can understand what you say. My fault. :(
Thank you
Kike Tarifa D. I got it already... boiled linseed oil :) thanks anyway
