If you're just starting out and/or are interested in knowing how
knifes are made: tools, techniques etc, you can ask 100 questions
and get 10 different answers to ea one OR -
buy one of the best KM videos ever made - SRJ's Sub Hilt.

I hope this is not considered a commercial plug of any sort.
Seriously, you'll see one of most beautiful knifes made in front
of your eyes and you'll learn:

- layout
- profiling
- grinding
- pinning
- polishing
- handle making

the whole thing, from start to finish (minus HT - he sends em out).
2+ Hrs. In great detail, with dozens of pearls of KM wisdom, that'd
take one years to learn on his own.

I real glad to see how many more people are joining the forum, asking
your typical beginner questions over and over again and I really beleive
this particular video is the best way for one to learn. :thumbup:
 
No doubt about it, SRJ is an incredibly talented knifemaker IMHO :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: His grinds are flawless. How he takes the knife from grinder to buffer to finished is beyond me at this point in time. Excellent Video/DVD, one of the best I've had the pleasure to watch in fact. :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
OK, now that this thread is here to stay :) -

If dinero is tight, you can _rent_ the set from Technical Video Rentals -

Sounds like that video is right up my alley. What is the title exactly? Where can I get ahold of one?
 
It is very well done. A lot of food for thought Especially for a new maker. If you order it from Steve, tell him Lovett says hello. If from center cross. Same thing. Mike and Manuela Lovett
