Video Transcription

well some of you may know the knife brand called Old Hickory it's a very cheap

but very good knife company and they produced the knives in the USA so Ontario Knife Company Old Hickory carbon steel blade wooden handle very cheap oh and I tell you what this episode we are going to make out of this knife this knife

so this will become a really good bushcrafting

stay tuned

okay first things first you have to make a drawing of the blade you want to have therefore you easily take the knife lay it on top draw around it with a pencil and change the design how you would like it to have so this could also become a skinner plate or a cap on style it doesn't matter which one you are going to draw has to fit your needs and after a few drawings I came up with this idea here which i think is a really good one but personal preference the blade itself is not that thick you can see will cut like a more I think I hope at least Scandi grind now with the secondary bevel right there but I will get rid of it as well and I think I'm going to make it full candy or even a comics candy I don't know we'll see so taken a very cheap ulti carry knife by Ontario and make myself a very cheap and really nice bushcraft knife so let's go to my working area and do the process there we go so now I fell into shape as well as profiling we prevail in the grind there's now a little convex edge grind also here convexed this thing and now it's time to sharpen on sandpaper

get rid of all those scratches and those marks and I also did a 90 degree angle on the spine here the last process is to sharpen the blade you want to have a sharp tool and therefore I'm kind of sharpen it on a simple small little tiny water stone and once you get used to stone sharpening it's easy going it's enough the camera will pick this up let's see

you can see the hairs on it shaving shower
