This step by step video shows the making of my new hunting/survival knife. This is the most ambitious project I've done to date, with G10 liners and custom made mosaic pins, a lanyard, and was also the first time i hand sanded bevels on the belt grinder, but I was really happy with how everything turned out.

All of the tools used are pretty affordable and easy to use, so I feel like most people could follow along without investing too much money. Check my other videos to see how to make knives with only the most basic of tools though.

Most of the processes used I learned about on YouTube, and most of the materials used were bought from eBay. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments and I'll get back to you
