    Yeeeesss! I'm friggin stoked about this build man! I've always wondered how you filed in those dragon scales. I'm also excited about the antler part though cuz i got a bunch of em to use as handles but i didnt want to just grind them to shape and leave blank white spots so I'm curious what you're gonna do with it.

    • @theriversexperience9383

    @krissteel4074 8 днів тому

    Lot of people forget Kukri's traditionally also have a pair of smaller blades for utility work, so if you wanted to integrate a couple of other knives into it. Maybe something like a little skinner and perhaps an 'eating knife' could be worked into the build. They don't have to be very big- 3-4" long, maybe find some warthog tusk or buffalo for handles to set them in an archaic style

    just watching and learning, question is from what I've seen on other videos around youtube, would it have been easier to work with if you softened it before shaping and drilling? doesn't look like you had any trouble but just thought id ask from what I've seen others say to do. Thanks and it looks great

    Well done on the loss, it gets harder as you get older so the less now it'll be easier later Kitchen knife turned out well, are you going to give that Apex-Ultra I sent a go? It does need a fairly detailed thermocycle treatment so I tend to do mine in batches, the results are pretty impressive though.

    The overlapping 2x12 idea was pure genius. Well done. My only change would be to glue the boards for quietness and put the top band a little lower so the handles clear easier when getting hammers out of the stand. Overall brilliant move though that I’ll be shamelessly copying
