These knives look like they are sharpened on one side only. Why is that? I thought knives should be sharpened on both sides of the blade. Great vid. Thanks

I was wondering...I used to work in a hardware store, and we cut keys. Afterwards, instead of using a wire wheel brush to clean up the burrs, we used a Nyalox wheel, medium. I was wondering if this would work here, if you do it very lightly, since it can leave a bit of fine scratching in the area. Can you polish this out afterwards? Thanks, great video!

@mattroyster1 I got my file from Jantz Knife Supply, but they're available at several places if you do a quick google search. What I got was a 20 TPI (teeth per inch) "checkering file" that's 1/2 an inch wide, so it cuts 10 grooves. You can get more TPI if you want finer checkering, and they also sell different widths if you look hard enough.
Thanks for watching, and be sure to check out my current channel (ARCustomKnives) for future vids.

@caatbox hahaha.... that's the first time I've ever been compared to Seth Rogan. That's funny!
As for adding jimping to a hardened (heat treated) blade, it's extremely difficult if the blade has been hardened properly, and you'll likely wear your file out fairly quickly. It's definitely more ideal to do it while the steel is soft.
