How to make a DIY draw knife from an old file

What is the oil ??

Great video, question:Do you have a video for the wooden jig that you used to get the bevel? Will be subscribing to your channel.

You do know that it being a file...you don't have to reharden it? Also, if you leave the edge at file hardness, you can use it to curl steel the same way you used it to curl out that wood. The Japanese had a similar tool called 'Sen' that did exactly that.

Hi, can you explain why you didn't anneal before grinding it into shape? Wouldnt it be much harder?

Nice job quickest and simplest I’ve seen.right to the point

Very Nice Job! I like how the handles actually fit a hand. It looks comfortable to use too!

Es una herramienta tan útil , y quedó muy bonita , gracias .

Funky town! Right om

Nice vid, terribly bad music choice

I was wondering how many guitars do you have that you made?

RAD!!!

thank you

Wonderful ! How do you design such a good knife ?

Man you have a lot of old files. Awesome job

Hi there & thanks for your video can i ask where you buy your sanding belts i have the same sander? Please.

why are you heat treating it? Is the file not already heat treated?

I'm really enjoying this... gonna make my own now! Thanks !

Nice now I've got to buy a tourch.
I've got a few old files I'll ahve to look real close at how well they cut, I;m thinking they are worn out and dull, this would be a good use for them.
I;m sure the older person that sold them to me won't mind they have found a new use doing woodworking. I think he'd like it.

is it wrong that i like to re-watch your old videos just for the music?

cool!!

I was waiting for the DiResta shave. Didn't dissapoint me!
Awesome ideas and projects as always :)

Lately you've been doing very useful tools to work around your shop, awesome!!! :)

Awesome work man!! Very nicely done.

nice one !

you're mastering this technique!

!!!!!

nice...

Baust du dein eigenes Werkzeug immer selber ? Oder kaufst du auch mal das eine oder andere Werkzeug :) Klasse Video ! Liebe Grüße MrHandwerk from Germany

ωραιος ρε πατριωτη να σαι καλα !!!

Great concept. Well done. Must try it someday.

Nicely done.

That is sharp! cool result!!

μπράβο φίλε μου, πολύ προσεγμένο αποτέλεσμα.
Μιά ερώτηση. Το δέρμα και την πάστα που τα βρήκες αν επιτρέπεται?

Love the home made tools from files that you made . I bet you must have allot of old medal files on hand liying around
Thumbs up for allot of sanding and a job well done ;-)

Nice to see a different kind of knife build. How do you like the angle of the handles? Seems like most draw knives I've seen have much steeper angle to the handles than you've done here. You can probably get more force in your pull with what you've got, though.

Way good job,,, I saw you putting something on the leather? If you were to go to a truck stop, you may find ( green ) polishing compound. Green is for hard stainless and crome. A 10 usd stick would last a life time for knife sharpening. It is about 3 lbs in weight.
Keep up the good work. ...

Great build, nicely done

Awesome bro i like it good job my friend :)

nice project and nice work

Really nice work ! What is the leather for exactly ?

Εγκρίνεται, αφού περνάει και το τεστ ξυρίσματος! :P
I love seeing your work evolving week by week!

Just realised, this is for making guitar necks, right? Looking forward to that vid!

Great job as always mate and super vid. Really like that nice simple rig for the grinder. Thanks for that.

Very nice work Dimitris. I like how well did you explain all the process. By the way which oil are you using to quench the metal? Thanks for share.

Πολυ καλο!! Ερωτηση... Που μπορω να βρω το λεπτο μαρκαδορακι που χρησιμοποιης ?

hola muy buen video! gracias por mostrar el proceso de templado de la hoja
