This is one of my first handmade knives. Materials is old hand file, scales are 1/4 leather epoxied on. I did use a bench grinder for some of the material removal and basic shaping. then used a file and various grit stones and sand paper to bring out the lines and finishing. All the jimping around the handle is hand filed. I did use a bench grinder with buffing pad to bring out a polish. The hardening is a brine quench and then tempered out. As this is meant for more tactical and stabbing purpose the tip was re-hardened. Full flat grind then the main edge is deep up the blade with micro edge it is scary sharp and will do a future vid on it. Hope you enjoyed this vid yes I know I'm not that great with my vid work yet but we all have to start somewhere Light and Peace
