Tools and materials I propose:
In this video I make a classic woodcarving knife out of an old table saw blade and a piece of Indian rosewood. I want to thank my friend Giorgos Laskaridis for sending me this beautiful piece of wood.
I begun by cutting the shape of my knife using my angle grinder and my rotary tool.
I finished shaping on the belt sander.
I then used my Tormek sharping system to sharpen my blade. I created a 22,5 degree bevel on my edge.
Then I polished the blade with sandpaper and some polishing paste.
I made the handle out of a piece of Indian Rosewood. I used my trim router to carve the groove and a I fine tuned it with a chisel.
I then epoxied all the pieces together.
I shaped the handle using the belt sander, the spoke shave, chisels and sand paper. I finished it with mineral oil.
And my little knife was ready. The blade seemed hard enough as it was so I didn’t do and hardening.
But that was it see you soon with a new project video.
