Hair thin Chef Knife with Nickel Silver for a Wedding

- I'm making a kitchen knife from 1.2842 high carbon steel. The bolster and pin are made from nickel silver and the handle is made out of (I'm guessing) wenge wood. This knife is meant as a wedding gift for my aunt and (now) uncle.

Welcome back to another round of "Guess the Handle Wood". Today we've got yet another unlabeled staircase cutoff. I think it might be Wenge 🤔
Funny - as I watched the intro, I thought to myself "Wonder, if he dulled that knife on purpose?"... you did. That is almost sacrilege.
Keep them coming 👍👍
Yeah, that felt really bad 😅
Thanks for watching!
What a build! Kichen knives are perfect for wedding gifts! My father one at his wedding and has been using the same one for decades! Ik that yours will last and certainly is a beautiful piece..can't wait to see what you do next!
I really hope it does! I've got some cool projects planned for the future. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I would take one of those 😏 Your intros turn into comedy sketches and I am all for it 😍 great work as always!
Thanks! I certainly plan on doing more of those intros 😄
It's fun to see you try and learn new stuff ! The sides of the blade are brighter than the bevels because you haven't ground them, so there's still a thin layer of steel that has lost a bit of carbon during heat treating. Less carbone -> etches brighter. Since you did the bevels after heat treat, this decarb layer has been ground and you have fresh high carbon steel that etches darker 😉
Oh yeah, that makes sense, thanks!
Really beautiful!
Thanks a lot! 🙌
Gift making like a BOSS 😎
Everyone should have a knifemaker as a friend, it certainly has its perks 😁
@@NjordArtisan LOL right?!
That looks fantastic! Great job!
Thanks a lot!
Nice! Even your tomato cutting technique got better ;)
Well done mate and I love the humor added in this lol good to see your still making knives, take care :-)
Thanks, Rodney! I‘ve got a lot of more important stuff going on at the moment, so I don’t have much time in the shop. But I think in the next 3 months I might get some time to hopefully upload a little bit more frequently 👍🏻
@@NjordArtisan No Worries mate never rush an artist they say lol. Stay Safe mate :-) .
@@rodneymiddleton1044 😄 thanks mate.
You too 💪🏻
You've chose to make one of the hardest bend on the bolster Sven 😂! Even with milling machine it would be pain in the guts lol.. 3 blades failure because of the mark.. thats a bummer :/... think about electro etching- it's less problematic and it works great if you have good masking stencils. And +1 Like for the intro! Your videos are remarkably pleasing Bro:) Great looking knife: this is very cool wedding gift :)!
Thanks a lot, Dawid! Nickel silver has to be one of my new favorite materials to work with. No cracks with such a sharp bend and polished it looks amazing, plus it doesn't take a patina as quickly as brass.
I thought a lot about electro etching but I think for one my logo has a lot of small sections where it get's a bit difficult to make a stencil and I actually really like the smoother look of a hot stamped logo.
I just have to stop being so bad at punching it 😁

@@Kratos_God_of_50_BMG 🤣🤣🤣
Dude, that's fucking art, youre an artist, yo.
I really like this knife!
Thanks! I was also pretty happy with the outcome
Very lovely, wish i could say the same about my WIP sword build..
Thanks! Is it not going so well right now?
@@NjordArtisan Last I worked on it, I ran into a bit of a problem with the guard, origionally i was going to use some 20mm square bar, cut that in half long ways, but then decided on 10mm bar as a test. A few attempts broke while I was drilling holes for the slot, but I managed to get a decent piece fit. Also found out that the blade is a whopping 8mm thick. This week though I've been at home dying from the flu. 👍
@@3dwrecker_4660 Now that's a big sword 😄👍 but apart from the flu that doesn't sound so bad! Get better soon!
So did you decide to film some of your build?
@@NjordArtisan Thanks! Yes I have filmed quite a lot of it, but I plan to throw it all into one video, along with a few pictures. I might decide to do a little "teaser" video soon though.
@@3dwrecker_4660 Very nice! Can't wait. I'm guessing on your YT channel, right?
Great work⚡⚡⚡⚒️⚔️🗡️👍👍
Thanks ✌
Hey Sven, i love your humor! Very nice video as always! Does nickel silver look like real silver? I really love the look of silver but silver- ish colours like stainless steel or aluminium are pretty ugly ;D
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked it! I never worked with silver so I can't say for sure but most of what I read it looks like the real deal. It has a slight brass tint at first but when sanded and buffed it get's a real nice shine with a very light golden tint. Hope that helps 😅
Damn nice! Good work
Thanks!
das Messer ist wirklich schön geworden, ich habe aber eine frage, hat sich die klinge durch den kaffee wirklich verfärbt?
Vielen Dank! Ja, das mit dem Kaffee klappt wirklich. Meistens benutzt man eine Kaffeelösung um den Kontrast bei Damastklingen zu erhöhen. Kaffee hat einen pH Wert von etwa 5 und ist damit leicht sauer, deshalb muss man auch so viel Pulver benutzen und so lange warten.
Je nachdem wie die Zusammensetzung des Stahls ist, widersteht er der Säure unterschiedlich. Manganhaltiger Stahl, wie dieses Messer, wird häufig benutzt um eine schwarze Lage im Damast zu erzeugen aber man kann so natürlich auch die ganze Klinge schwarz bekommen. ✌🏻
Nice job
Thanks!
what kind of glue is that for the handle. Can you please link it, thank you very much. Greetings from Rheinhessen
That knife looked great. It will be a wonderful gift. Have you tried electro etching? Might be helpful. Appreciate the video and thank you for posting. 👍
Thanks! Yeah I tried that and it definitely works great and is a much safer way of getting the logo on there, but I really like the look of a hot stamp, especially on damascus. Plus I can use the stamp for leather and wood as well so I thought it might be worth the investment.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to watch and comment 🙌
@@NjordArtisan I have to agree with you on the hot stamp. It looks beautiful on my leather and wood pieces.
@@Charlielizard Are you on Instagram? I'd love to take a look!
@@NjordArtisan No, I don't even use Facebook. Have put most items in storage for moving. Everything else I've made has been given as gifts or donated for fundraisers. Not very smart at making any money off my work. 😂
@@Charlielizard So far I haven't sold anything either 😁
It will probably be quite some time until I'm even on hobby expenses, if ever 😄
But I still wouldn't want to give it up
Schönes ding was du da erschaffen hast :)
Machst du auch Küchenmesser auf Anfrage? Oder hast du welche so zum Verkaufen da? Sieht sehr schön aus :)!
👏👏👏👏🤜🤛
Thanks!
