Odin it would really dope to see your take on the original 1978 Michael Myers mask… seems extremely simple to a sense but also extremely challenging! I know you could do it bro!
There are dozens (possibly hundreds) of sculpts to recreate the original '75 Kirk. Each one is aimed at recreating a certain look from each movie - the Castle stretch being one of the hardest. There are even pulls made from the scan of the original mold. None hit all the marks. It's an exercise in futility for so many.
I really wanted to make this out of wood at some point when was very young and not a good prop maker. And it turned out horribly. ( think of it from a prop maker point of view, as a toddler trying to recreate the Mona Lisa with a stick of charcoal.) I can’t tell you how happy I am to see one of these things, while it actually looks great, while also being fan made. I love this. Ps: when I started watching you, I always wanted to be like you, and be able to make things as good as you do. And watching your videos over years and time, has improved my skills by more that’s normal. You helped me achieve that, and I thank you for it.
Simple, but full of useful techniques. Thanks. Watched Dune this past weekend. I know it's a variation on what you have done already, but can you do a Freman Stillsuit Mask?
From watching way too many episodes of Forged in Fire, I have learned that those metal bolt thingies that go through the handle to hold the pieces together are called "pins." The two sides of the handle are called "scales."
Using this video as instructions as well as the template I made one of these for my Cousin who is a HUGE Michael Myers fan, he absolutely LOVED it. Thank you :)
I totally thought Someone unplugged an Odin robot when he stopped talking and just stared into oblivion. I was like dang that’s an awesome prop that he made. Think Odin was going to pop up any second. Lol
You did a much better job than I expected. Knives are just something many people can't get right in foam. The only things I would have done differently would be in the handle. I use exclusively vintage wood handled cutlery in my kitchen ( most between 30 and 100 + years old ) and you will always see staining around the rivets and around the edges where moisture has rusted the tang and that iron oxide has leached into the wood. It would not be necessary for screen accuracy since the knife would have been relatively new at the time, but I think it would age relatively quickly with Micheal using it without care or cleaning.
Hey Oden! I really think you'd do a great job at tackling the 1978 Myers mask, not even from scratch. I reckon you could even transform a William Shatner mask to the original Michael Myers mask. I think you'd do great and it'd make for an amazing video!
What I usually do for the rivets(that's what I assume they are) on either armor or knives, if I don't want to feel the rise, is take a straw, or a small sharp tube about the right size and press it in fairly hard, and you should be able to see it, as it leaves an impression, and you might be able to do it after you paint to get it more noticeable
On the ONE hand, yes, the graphite rod works, you KNOW it works, you've done it before, and there's a time limit for getting a video out. On the OTHER hand, there's the "do something you HAVEN'T done before" to challenge yourself and perhaps grow as a maker aspect. Just putting out there that I think you should do something like what you didn't do. Not necessarily make a blade with aluminium in it, but something other than what you usually do in terms of the technical part. I'll watch you happily either way, though.
O my days, yeeeees odin, what a simplistic yet legendary build, do love how stumped you made ure self whilst solving the same problem hahahaha ha, keep em coming...
You should make something from Warhammer 40k, I feel like it would be a good challenge. Ork Shottas or choppas, chainswords or chainaxes like Gorechild, or even Bolters and lasguns
I'm thinking to make this particular project, however going to try to make a PAI core sandwich. I made that before to do some other projects and worked amazingly fine.
Hey Odin you did a slashing job on the Knife. Michael Myers himself would have been proud to wield this knife I know it. I hope you have a great Halloween I'm going as my version of the Crow and my cousin is going as Morticia from the Adams family. Happy Halloween Odin my friend!
It's funny you asked this because I just recently saw another channel (Lost Wax) do a couple of videos on building a pack from scratch out of floormat foam.
I'm not sure if anyone mentioned the names of the knife parts but the wood components would be scales, and they are held on by rivets, sometimes Chicago screws. And that thicker component on the heel is just an extended bolster that forms a finger guard. Hope that helps!
Odin just standing there staring at the wall off camera is so relatable to those of us with makers brains.......love it
agreed.
My immediate reaction was "he's either thinking really hard, or not at all..."
Thats where the planning white board is!!!! Always need reference;)
“Makers brains”…
He stood there for 7 seconds before he figured it out, that's 2 hours in my time haha!!
2:16 lol.
Awkward silence
but this goes to show that people are not perfect and they make mistakes.
"I usually make my core out of..."

@@maribelreyes4628 uhh what?
18:13 This frame is just so violent, i love it!
"We'll Be Right Back"
This had such an amazing chaotic energy, I loved it
Can you make a ‘reverse bear-trap’ helmet form Saw? I think it would be AWESOME if you could wear one of those around a con
Odin taking a knife to the neck like a champ. There's a reason they named a god after him.
Odin: “uh i like to make my core out of uh…”
*stroke*
19:00 The frame of Michael Myers watching someone fix his knife and being surprised at how well it works is hilarious
Odin! Ever try making THE micheal myers mask ? The Odin way?🤔
Just saw Dune last night and oh boy is there so many great things you could make from that.
I've never felt more represented than by Odin talking himself through projects
Simple, but full of useful techniques. Thanks.
Watched Dune this past weekend. I know it's a variation on what you have done already, but can you do a Freman Stillsuit Mask?
I literally yelled “RIVETS!” Out-loud when he said “I’m sure someone’ll tell me what these are”
Thanks! I think I heard you...
@@OdinMakes
I can’t believe 2 of my comments received replies from you
This is amazing
Tang pins
You should have done a still shot, photo, of you looking through the mask, holding the knife with Felicia screaming in background..lol
From watching way too many episodes of Forged in Fire, I have learned that those metal bolt thingies that go through the handle to hold the pieces together are called "pins."
The two sides of the handle are called "scales."
this prop...will kill
#Facts... Lol... Same here...
I've seen like 5 of your videos and I was thinking, when's he grabbing the graphite rod? Love your stuff, really creative.
Why is it that whenever I go through a phase of liking something Odin makes it XD
The knife scales are held in place with pins. Source: Forged in Fire
or rivets depending on the maker.
they're rapid rivets, not pins
@@pilummurialis6490 varies from knife maker to knife maker
Thank you for sharing your mistakes too. Shows you’re human and mess up just like we will, even with all your experience.
the "How It's Made" style music gets me every time

Thank you so much for this video! I am being Micheal Myers for Halloween and this would go great with my costume.
This is gonna help with my cosplay so much. Thank you!
the small wood grains suggest that the scales are made of oak wood, and they are called handle scales, and pines to hold them on
*pins (pines)...
@@DontAskWhyItsJustCuz thanks
Wood side - scales
Metal inserts - pins (gives mechanical stability)

Odin do something from dune. Perhaps the crysknife or the stillsuit mask
Very awesome build! 😆
Thank you!
i believe its official. odin has lost his mind. great build as always.

Lol like the bot st the end Michael is memorized by his work
radical! you should make zero from megaman's helmet
I love your videos Odin.
Big fan here from North Wales in the U.K. 🏴 🇬🇧
Odin makes: good content
Great tip with the rub n buff, might have to try that instead of chrome spray paint
My favorite Halloween 1978

Odin is a funny guy.I love is work,way to go...
Dam Michael was VERY interested in the restoration of his knife.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS I’VEEE BEEEENN WANTTINGGG THIISSS FORR YEARSS!!!!
The night he came home... And made another awesome foam prop!
HA! :)
I would love to see you make the mask out of foam next, just like you did the Hockey mask!
@2:17... Green light... Red light!!!
LmfaoOOo...
YES!
Chucky prop build for next year! Lol another great video Odin.
Ooo- ooooo- I know! I can make Chucky's butcher knife!
Nice Shape pun
Really like the simplicity of this one. If I recall correctly, the handle pieces are referred to as "scales" and they are held on with pins/rivets.
@2:17... When the doctor slides his finger in for the prostate exam...
LmfaoOOo...
Man I wish I had skills like you
I love the Halloween movies! Amazing build Odin!
Your an inspiration truly
The fact that for the second half of the video he had a black smear on his face from the foam powder made me smile
That really helped on my myers costume
Wrist shield generators from Dune would be awesome.
ooh, you did it now..... you gotta make a gremlin!!!

I'll watch you happily either way, though.
Buying cheap metal rulers works wonders for stiffening thin knifes too. Can usually cut them with pliers too.
When I need a giant butcher knife to chase my neighbors I just grab the one from the kitchen and it's really sharp!
Very very cool
Thank you!
O my days, yeeeees odin, what a simplistic yet legendary build, do love how stumped you made ure self whilst solving the same problem hahahaha ha, keep em coming...
It's funny how often I 'solve the same problem'. Or totally forget how I did it years ago!
Useful for conventions. Sick
20:26 Michael Myers on every Halloween party.
Have you ever thought of using a knife sharpening machine to create the edges. I would think it would be a way of making a smooth even edge.
You should make something from Warhammer 40k, I feel like it would be a good challenge. Ork Shottas or choppas, chainswords or chainaxes like Gorechild, or even Bolters and lasguns
The Halloween pumpkin explains alot in the teaser post lol
Fantastic job
Can’t wait to see you make leather face’s chainsaw one day
Halligan Bar from Halloween Kills would be awesome
That is so cool
Make a venom musk nest
So realistic xx
Funny enough, I did this build two weeks ago with thermoplastic lol but amazing nonetheless
For the fun of it, try making a myers mask from craft foam !
Goddamn you Michael!
Now it's makes sense that's why it holds Bob up in the pantry
Now you gotta do another John Carpenter movie prop - Snake Plissken's handgun with scope from Escape from New York.
next video: make the buck 120 knife from scream, new movie next month 😁
Great project! Very simple but looks amazing!
Man Odin this looks sick.
Now, *that* is a knife! 🔪
I'm thinking to make this particular project, however going to try to make a PAI core sandwich. I made that before to do some other projects and worked amazingly fine.
It would be cool to see you make the mask as well!
20:22 myers has got some moves
2:18 Me when the teacher called on me when I was in the middle of wondering what would be for lunch.
SUPER COOL 🎃🎃🎃
I will make this!
Odinnn old school RuneScape rune kiteshield man!
I'm a huge fan of michel myers
Make the cotton candy gun from killer klowns movie
I'm just waiting on the mask
this is so cool man
Finally! You got Freddy's glove,
Jason's hockey mask and now;
Michael's knife.
I feel the same way, and Michael is my favorite!
@@OdinMakes I hope next time you get Leatherface's chainsaw (depending on which movie).
@@OdinMakes And Jason Voorhees
is my favorite slasher villain.
Hey Odin you did a slashing job on the Knife. Michael Myers himself would have been proud to wield this knife I know it. I hope you have a great Halloween I'm going as my version of the Crow and my cousin is going as Morticia from the Adams family. Happy Halloween Odin my friend!
Prop request:
Guyver suit from The Guyver: Dark Hero 1994. I never seen anyone makes a video tutorials of it.
ASH KETCHUM CHAINSAW HAND
I NEED THIS
Pllllease make a Proton Pack!!! The new Ghostbusters is out soon and I've been asking for this since DIY prop shop
