Knifemaking DVDs?

[apox77]

Can you all list the knifemaking DVD that have been most helpful to you.

I have Stout's "Hollow Grinding" and Caffrey's "Basic Bladesmith" and found them extremely informative.

Any more I should add to the collection?



Thanks

Ed

They have the sequel to basic blacksmithing. "Basic Damascus"

I am going to buy that soon.

The DVD's we sell the most are:

- Sculpting with David Broadwell
- Fileworking with Dwayne Dushane
- Custom Knife Sheaths with Chuck Burrows

Ed Caffrey has two DVD's out now. I just watched his Damascus Steel. It is very good. Ed's DVD's have not been out very long but they are selling well.

I particularly like Custom Knife Sheaths. I used to do leather work. I learned more from Chuck's two DVD's than I did in several years of doing my own leather work.

Is Ed Caffrey's DVD "Basic Blacksmithing" good? I have not seen it.

Bill Morans tape on knife forging is real good, in my opinion. I also have all the ones listed above, and like every one of them.

 

[Deveraux]

Ed Fowler also has a DVD on forging.

Charlie Ochs -the forging and finishing of a bowie.

Kim's Grinding vid is good. Chris Crawford's video on scale release autos is great, but only bother if you have a mill and some experience with folders. Peter Atwood's framelock video is killer.

I have watched Ed's DVD three times so far and it is a good precis of what he teaches on his seminar. Combined with his writings in Blade magazine or his books, it should tell you all you need to make a pretty decent working blade.

I also have Gil Hibben's grinding video, which is informative and fun to watch.
