Great vid, was there some trickery special effects in there? My hacksaw won't cut no tempered file.

@pacificcloud The file needs to be softened in a fire first. Do this by placing the file in the coals and under the wood of a well developed fire (like a camp fire or wood stove) and let the fire burn out. The metal will be softened. After forming the knife you will need to harden the knife again and then temper it.

@rc8rsracer I'll be doing that also. This shows what can be done when you don't have the forge option.

wait you threw it in the fire before you started cutting? do you throw it back in the fire afterwards also?

@samstterhamstteer Yes, the fire softens the steel before you work it. After it is formed you must harden it in the fire. Two different methods.
