Do you make these bladesmithing mistakes?

Have you ever wondered why your knife doesn't come out quite as perfect as a master bladesmith's knife?

Or why your blade warped after heat treatment?

Or why you're unable to machine certain stock steels?

Or why your pins don't align properly on your knife's handle?

Do you want to know and avoid mistakes, before they ever happen?

Imagine this, you suddenly have the power to avoid any mistakes, before they ever happen, and you always have a high-quality in your hands.

  • Why sharpening your knife is not enough and what you should do to retain your knife's sharpness over a long period of time
  • 1 simple hammering adjustment that could increase your efficiency and make your knives better
  • 1 compound, you should never use, unless you want to ruin your kydex sheath with a nasty white film
  • Why assuming every steel heat treats the same way is a huge blunder
  • What tool to use to mark kydex and leather, without it becoming permanent on the material
  • 1 epoxy mistake that could ruin your knife in seconds, as it cures on your tang and scales
  • Why hard work isn't always the best option while making knives
  • One knife making habit that could become a crutch for a bladesmith later in his career, and hamper his craft
