echo_blades
You may know him from such YouTube channels as Terrell knife works, where he invented the triple T that's tools, tips and talk where we discuss info for the knife makers.
00:01:12
Denis Tyrell
Wow. All right, keep going.
00:01:15
echo_blades
And him and Jeff are incredibly large assholes and have the award for Go Fuck Yourself for last week's joke on Jared, who has done nothing but treat Dennis with kindness and respect on this podcast

every episode.
00:01:30
Denis Tyrell

00:01:37
echo_blades
ah Yeah, yeah.
00:01:39
Denis Tyrell
but
00:01:40
echo_blades
Sad chance. You are so fucked. You don't even know it yet.
00:01:43
Denis Tyrell
Oh, really? There's going to be retaliation?
00:01:44
echo_blades
Yes. Oh my God.
00:01:47
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, keep my wife out of it.
00:01:50
echo_blades
what What does that mean?
00:01:51
Denis Tyrell
That means I know she would, if you call her and ask her to to participate, she will gladly do it, so don't bother.
00:01:55
echo_blades
What does that mean? and Me and Kim would never participate in some kind of things like that. That's ridiculous.
00:02:03
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, you probably already already asked her.
00:02:07
echo_blades
Nope. Not me.
00:02:13
echo_blades

00:02:30
echo_blades
Oh, my God. Well, Dennis, how are you doing today, my friend? It's another beautiful week. I'm interested to hear about all the wonderful things that you did last week while completely ignoring your buddy.
00:02:36
Denis Tyrell
I'm good. Hey, if you don't call me back when I tell you, when you tell me you're too busy...

Denis Tyrell
No, wait.
00:02:53
echo_blades
Whoa.
00:02:53
Denis Tyrell
Hold on. Wait. This is bullshit. You reach out to me with a question. i respond. And then you tell me you're too busy to answer and that you'll call me back and never do.
00:03:03
echo_blades
I still think you're full of shit. What is this?
00:03:08
Denis Tyrell
What is what?
00:03:09
echo_blades

00:03:14
Denis Tyrell
Okay.

00:03:22
echo_blades
How are you?
00:03:23
Denis Tyrell
um i'm last but well At the end of last show, or after last show, things did not go well in the shop, but I've since recovered and moved on, and I feel like weeks have gone by already, so we'll get into what happened.

Denis Tyrell
Shooting and golfing?
00:03:49
echo_blades
I, I did. Yeah, I went out to
00:03:55
echo_blades
ah my my range that's like super far away that I used to go to very regularly. And then can't remember why, but it's been a long time since I've been out there.
00:04:09
echo_blades
Like years, couple of years.
00:04:10
Denis Tyrell
Didn't you tell me it was really far away?
00:04:12
echo_blades
Yeah, it's like two and a half hours from here.
00:04:14
Denis Tyrell
fuck.
00:04:14
echo_blades
Yeah, but I got no, not like this.
00:04:15
Denis Tyrell
There are closer ranges.
00:04:18
echo_blades
Not even close.
00:04:19
Denis Tyrell
is this like shoot your heart out kind of range? Like, okay.
00:04:22
echo_blades
It's yeah, it's a private, private facility with like all kinds of shit that you can't really do. I've never, i haven't seen anything and around here anyways. It's got really far like land. You can go from like up to five, I think almost seven, seven or 800 yards or something like that.
00:04:36
echo_blades
There's just no space out here where we're at to do things like that, but it's cool.
00:04:40
Denis Tyrell
no
00:04:42
echo_blades
Beautiful place. Well, it's not beautiful. It's actually pretty God awful looking, but it's far. had some family up that way. um so it it works out, but, um,
00:04:53
Denis Tyrell
Where is it up? to Like Red Bluff? Like, where is it?
00:04:55
echo_blades
have now it's way down there It's like in right in the middle of Brown town, just past Kalinga.
00:05:01
Denis Tyrell
Oh, down there. Uh...
00:05:02
echo_blades
Yeah. Yeah. So at any rate, cool place. um and then yeah. yeah So I drove out there on Friday night, stayed at my cousins and then, um, got up real early and we went out and,
00:05:19
echo_blades
was there for like eight hours. It was fantastic. We, we shot a lot.
00:05:23
Denis Tyrell
you you were You were shooting for eight hours? How much money in ammo did you go through? Fuck.
00:05:30
echo_blades
Lots. It was good. Good time.
00:05:33
Denis Tyrell
Man, I'm usually done after after an hour. I'm done. Wow.
00:05:38
echo_blades
Yeah, no, we were, we were putting in some work. So, uh, it was good. Good time. Uh, it was hot though, man. God, it was, it's really, really nice here right now for whatever reason. I don't, I,
00:05:49
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, last week has been fantastic.
00:05:51
echo_blades
it's past couple weeks have been like really, really wonderful. Um, but it, it's, it's significantly hotter there in the Valley.
00:05:58
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:05:59
echo_blades
It was like, i don't know, seven o'clock, eight o'clock. And it felt like it was fricking 90. It was, it was hot. Um, and then, uh, after all that fun, um, went back to the house, kind of just vegged out.
00:06:15
echo_blades
Um, and, uh, it was cool. Got some visiting on some family and stuff. And then I racked out at like seven o'clock. But so I don't know, like a three hour drive home.
00:06:27
echo_blades
And but I booked a tea time about an hour, a little over an hour from where I was staying in a town called Chowchilla, which I never been.
00:06:41
echo_blades
There's two there's two.
00:06:41
Denis Tyrell
I've been there.
00:06:44
echo_blades
there's two highways that run north and south, ah five and 99. And I'm always on five. I never really have much business on 99. So I was cruising down 99. And anyways, there's golf course. I just kind of looked at a bunch of places. It was really nice.
00:06:59
echo_blades
i got ah I booked like a 6 a.m. tea time. And then i got there probably like around a little after 5.30. And the dude, it was, yeah.
00:07:07
Denis Tyrell
This has still been dark.
00:07:10
echo_blades
I was so the first person in the parking lot and the guy that was like opening up came out on the golf cart and was like, can I help you? And I'm like, yeah, I got a tee time at six. And, uh, anyways, he let me go out in front. I was the first one out, um, and finished my round in like two and about two hours and 15 minutes.
00:07:27
echo_blades
I was floating. It was, it was cool. I was actually would have been faster, but I was hitting into the guys that were rolling the greens for the day. So I had to like, wait for them. Like and And I was getting a little irritated a couple times cause they got headsets on and they're just like doing their, their work. And I'm standing out in the tee box. Like, come on, hurry up.
00:07:46
echo_blades
But it was a cool course. It was great. I had a good time. And then I jumped back on the road at like little after eight and I was home by 10 30. So yeah, it was great.
00:07:57
echo_blades
It was just, for I, the coolest thing about this weekend was, Oh, and then shit on Friday, I actually got to get out of the office. Like, There was a time when my work before I took this position that I would spend probably, i think right when I first met you, um i would spend half the time at the office and half out on the road and just running around the Bay Area.
00:08:22
Denis Tyrell
remember.
00:08:23
echo_blades
I traveled a lot. I like a lot. And just around our area. But that doesn't, that's all changed. I don't get to go anywhere or do anything, but I got to go out to Half Moon Bay on the on Friday to go meet with the fire department.
00:08:38
echo_blades
And that was cool just to get out. But of course it's the day I have to drive three hours to later on that day. So I did did a lot of moving that time, but but it was really cool because like after that whole thing on Friday, man, I completely checked out. It was really nice. Didn't think about work, was no stress, just, you know, out on the range awesome.
00:08:59
echo_blades
you know?
00:08:59
Denis Tyrell
nice change for you.
00:09:00
echo_blades
Yeah, it was really cool. And then golfing, um obviously that's like the peaceful zone for me right now. um And then driving, like, I think a couple of weeks ago we talked about that. Like, you're not a big fan of road trips, right?
00:09:12
Denis Tyrell
No, I mean, no not really. I mean, i I drove as like a commuter for so many years, like 20 some years that I don't want to spend extra time in the car.
00:09:15
echo_blades
Yeah. And I absolutely love them.
00:09:26
echo_blades
No. Yeah. I did all that. I did the commute and then I could go drive around. Like I'm saying, like it, I don't, I do not mind driving. And especially on like those trips where got a good destination.
00:09:37
echo_blades
It's pretty cool, man.
00:09:38
Denis Tyrell
I mean, there's certain things. Like if it's someplace I've never been, then like I drove to Yosemite once, like over two days to drive Yosemite. And that was pretty.
00:09:51
Denis Tyrell
I would love to drive through the Rockies or something. Or not Yosemite. Sorry. Yellowstone.
00:09:55
echo_blades
I was going to say like, what the hell zigzagging back and forth in Modesto.
00:09:57
Denis Tyrell
Yellowstone. Wrong park. Yellowstone.
00:10:02
echo_blades
Okay.
00:10:02
Denis Tyrell
um And I'd love to drive through the Rockies, like the Canadian Rockies, like up there.
00:10:06
echo_blades
Yeah. All right.
00:10:07
Denis Tyrell
That'd be kind of fun. But other than that, yeah, I'm not a fan.
00:10:12
echo_blades
Nah, I'll, I'll, if I had the time to like justify
00:10:12
Denis Tyrell
Not generally.
00:10:22
echo_blades
driving somewhere, I'd drive like almost every time rather than flying. But it's just, you can't, you can't go to, you know, if it's something's eight or 10 hours away, just time just fucks all that up.
00:10:27
Denis Tyrell
Well, my...
00:10:35
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, my stepdaughter Corinne and her husband Mitchell Thursday morning are starting their drive from Colorado, just north of Denver, and they're driving here.
00:10:45
echo_blades
Ah, see, that's cool. I'd do that.
00:10:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Well.
00:10:47
echo_blades
If I had the time. but I normally don't. So I got to get my ass in the air and down and back and all that good stuff. But yeah. So I don't It was just cool, man. I enjoyed every bit of it.
00:10:58
echo_blades
Got home and I looked at the shop. I really was threatening to go out there, but I'd been gone all weekend. So I just hung out with Lynn and it was cool.
00:11:08
Denis Tyrell
That's probably a good idea.
00:11:09
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:11:09
Denis Tyrell
Appease the wife.
00:11:10
echo_blades
Yeah. What's what I want to be. I want to hang out with her.

00:15:44
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. well
00:15:45
echo_blades
So are the other five people. Let's go.
00:15:46
Denis Tyrell
the
00:15:46
echo_blades
Tell me. How did it suck?
00:15:49
Denis Tyrell
How did it suck? It sucked. So I was all happy at the podcast last week because the sword was going so well.
00:15:55
echo_blades
Yes. Mm-hmm.
00:15:57
Denis Tyrell
And the very next day he treated it and then saw something I didn't like, which looked like the brass separated, which it did.
00:15:59
echo_blades
Yes. Okay.
00:16:08
echo_blades
Oh, no.
00:16:10
Denis Tyrell
And then I ground just to see if it it It looked like it was only on one side and it was the side with the edge. And sometimes when you grind it, you know, by grinding the core, like sometimes you grind it back and then it doesn't matter.
00:16:24
Denis Tyrell
There was fucking four D-Lams on each side. um
00:16:28
echo_blades
Ouch.
00:16:29
Denis Tyrell
It was trash. So I was not happy about that. um
00:16:35
echo_blades
Did you hear that, Koi? Sorry. Sorry.
00:16:37
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, Koi. Should have listened to your brass. No good. Even the high copper content. And then um later, this is fast forward a couple of days. I'm thinking, I need to go back in that piece that um that Justin and I made.
00:16:57
Denis Tyrell
And so I just quickly profiled a buoy out of it. um And then he treated it full thickness And then ground the bevels, same thing. It was trash.
00:17:11
echo_blades
Damn.
00:17:12
Denis Tyrell
So that whole process is just sketchy as hell. Some of it stuck. Most of it didn't. So
00:17:20
echo_blades
Like any ideas where and how and why?
00:17:23
Denis Tyrell
i
00:17:24
echo_blades
Not even clue, huh?
00:17:25
Denis Tyrell
it's the zinc content. Zinc is just... The enemy of of welding anything. So, yeah, I'm pretty sure. And that's, Koi said the same thing. And that's why I picked an alloy with the lowest zinc.
00:17:41
Denis Tyrell
um
00:17:41
echo_blades
Hi.
00:17:43
Denis Tyrell
So, yeah, that was a shitty start to the week. But then, and I was really happy that the weather was good last week. Because I turned it around Thursday. So, that was Wednesday. Wednesday.
00:17:57
Denis Tyrell
Thursday morning, forged some Damascus. So spent the entire day forging Thursday. Got the the billet, basically the sword profiled. 200 layered Damascus in my my ring pattern.
00:18:15
Denis Tyrell
And then Friday, um no sorry, Friday profile and all that. And then Saturday I heat treated it. um And then...
00:18:25
echo_blades
No special steals, just straight Damascus.
00:18:26
Denis Tyrell
It's just, i i couldn't fuck with it. Like i'm I'm running out of time as it is.
00:18:29
echo_blades
He just needed to get it. Yeah.
00:18:31
Denis Tyrell
Oh, and I, and not sorry, I machined all the fullers, which I didn't, I was going to grind the fullers. I ended up machining the fullers, which is a much better plan. um So now I've got a fully heat treated. Now I did all the grinding today. All the fullers are done. It's already heat treated.
00:18:50
Denis Tyrell
um So I'm definitely back on track. There is a slight, like, and this is what I was worried about, doing the fullers.
00:18:54
echo_blades
Hmm.
00:18:58
Denis Tyrell
this This is like a a saber, right? So it's it's only like a ah less than an inch wide, and it's 30 inches long. And by doing the fuller, machining the fullers, which are pretty deep, it bent.
00:19:12
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:19:13
Denis Tyrell
Like, not left or right, but the the arc in it,
00:19:16
echo_blades
Like, like samurai style or Katana or.
00:19:18
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:19:19
echo_blades
catana or
00:19:19
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, a little like and it's curved already, but it curved a little more like the difference is about a half an inch. Half an inch more curve. So I'm having to re-temporary. I was I wanted to. um I know you got a smile on your face for that comment.
00:19:39
Denis Tyrell
um I wanted to grind the bevels just in case it curved back. But it didn't. So um it's being in a shim temper right now. Yeah, go ahead.
00:19:52
Denis Tyrell
Say it. Say it. You got the smile on your face.
00:19:53
echo_blades
i just I just know there's about four, or five, six, ten people that just are... Get him, Jared. Get him with this curvy inch and a half.
00:20:07
echo_blades
I'm going to curve it back.
00:20:07
Denis Tyrell
yeah
00:20:11
Denis Tyrell
ah
00:20:12
echo_blades
you do I gave you the out. You could have just said it worked, but no, you were like, no, it was bending up. It was standing up.
00:20:22
Denis Tyrell
ah
00:20:22
echo_blades
Oh, man.
00:20:22
Denis Tyrell
god can't can't keep this guy on task for anything what

echo_blades
Oh man. I'll let you if fucking handle that one. But. All I did, you know, through the whole thing, and we'll get there as well, but is that if you don't want to fuck up Damascus, then I'd say that you go check out our boy, Koi, who, by the way, told Dennis not to do this, but, you know, he, because, yeah.
00:21:01
Denis Tyrell
He didn't say not to do it. He said they don't do it because they've had problems.
00:21:07
echo_blades
So, he tried to help him out, but Dennis, don't listen.
00:21:07
Denis Tyrell
Well, I got to prove it to myself.
00:21:09
echo_blades
then't Just ask Jared. He'll tell you. There you go. But Koi and the boys over at ba Baker Forged in Tool have all of that premium laminated pattern welded steel already done up for And if you don't want to do the laborious tasks and the sketchiness of trying new things and just want that 100% satisfaction of perfectly done steel, go check them out.

Denis Tyrell
Yes, yes, yes.
00:23:40
echo_blades
That's right.
00:23:41
Denis Tyrell
So beyond the sword, I also got other fucking bad news on
00:23:46
echo_blades
Oh shit. This is horrible.
00:23:47
Denis Tyrell
yeah
00:23:49
echo_blades
Keep it coming, buddy.
00:23:49
Denis Tyrell
um the. So, you know, you heard that I'm waiting for the jet ski, the engine replacement and all that stuff.
00:23:58
echo_blades
Mm-hmm.
00:23:59
Denis Tyrell
So they call me and I could tell something's wrong, but she's talking me on the phone and she's like, well, we got the engine, we put it in and um we were, we were almost done, ready to send it back. And I'm waiting for the butt.
00:24:15
Denis Tyrell
And she goes, but one of the cylinders is already locking up. And I'm like, what does that mean? She goes, that means there's a fault in the engine and we need to replace it again.
00:24:31
Denis Tyrell
Meaning not like I don't need to pay for it, but they need to sit and it took two weeks for the engine to get here from the East Coast.
00:24:31
echo_blades
But I was going to say.
00:24:37
Denis Tyrell
So they had to contact them, do a warranty or whatever and get a new it. So fuck, it's going to be like another four weeks before I get my jet ski back. So it'll be like end of the summer if I'm lucky.
00:24:50
Denis Tyrell
So I was pissy about that too.
00:24:54
echo_blades
All the little Latino boys across the world are crying out of this bad news.
00:24:57
Denis Tyrell
That's right. and That's right.
00:24:58
echo_blades
Just horrible, horrible.
00:24:59
Denis Tyrell

00:25:03
echo_blades
That was good. That was good.
00:25:06
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, shout out to Mr. John Chandler for first sending that picture out. That one was was the best.
00:25:14
echo_blades
Yeah. A little winky.
00:25:16
Denis Tyrell

00:25:54
Denis Tyrell

00:25:55
echo_blades
That's a bummer to your summer.
00:25:56
Denis Tyrell
Well, get given the weather, actually, it it the last two weeks weren't really jet skiing weather anyway, so I guess that's good.
00:26:03
echo_blades
yeah that does that's no bino
00:26:04
Denis Tyrell
But... Yeah. But, yeah, we move on. Things are getting better. i'm I'm happier with the new S.W.O.R.D., and hopefully I'll be happier with the new jet ski engine.
00:26:19
echo_blades
oh very cool all
00:26:19
Denis Tyrell
um And things are moving ahead. So...
00:26:25
echo_blades
right
00:26:26
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. what What else happened in your week?
00:26:31
echo_blades
Oh, so when I was at my cousin's house, I forgot that I had made them um a knife a while back. um And had to be a while back.
00:26:45
echo_blades
ah yo ah
00:26:49
echo_blades
They had it out and then I saw it, I looked at it. First thing I looked at was i was like, that's a very bad Kydex. She's. And I went over and I looked, I'm like, oh, fuck, that's fine.
00:27:02
echo_blades
But I remember that I was finishing, they had come down for the day. And I was finishing everything up on it.
00:27:12
echo_blades
And I did that sheet like in fucking record speed. So it works. It's just a little shabby there. So I opened it up and I was looking at it and I was like, God damn, I like this profile.
00:27:25
echo_blades
It's kind of like a one-off profile of some things that I was trying a while back and, um, I really like it. So I put it up on my story, um, yesterday or today or something like that.
00:27:35
Denis Tyrell
Saw that.
00:27:38
echo_blades
And, uh, you know, but the whole time I was holding it, I was like, I think I'm going to, I want to do a folder out of this. And I think that's, I got all jazzed up for the folder. Um, somebody actually hit me up and was like, that would look really cool.
00:27:51
echo_blades
I'm like, dude, great minds, great minds. Just thinking that. So, um, that's what we're going to do. That's what I want to do.
00:27:57
Denis Tyrell
yeah
00:27:57
echo_blades
And then my buddy told me, go fuck myself because we're going to go do something else.
00:28:03
Denis Tyrell
No, when you take the folder class, you're using what I give you, and then you can go make your own folder.
00:28:12
echo_blades
ah
00:28:12
Denis Tyrell
So, yeah, go fuck yourself.
00:28:14
echo_blades
Yeah, I know. that's I know how to translate, bitch.
00:28:18
Denis Tyrell
Oh, I just got a text from my wife, and she said, i hope you're being nice to Jared on the podcast tonight. And I said, he's not being nice to me. And she said, do you need me to come come in there? And I said, yes, come give him shit.
00:28:30
Denis Tyrell
And then she said, no, just tell the little Latino boy I said hi.
00:28:35
echo_blades
I love it.
00:28:38
Denis Tyrell
She still calls you little. You must be happy about that.
00:28:40
echo_blades
Yeah, I'm good. It's my favorite description.
00:28:45
Denis Tyrell
Man.
00:28:46
echo_blades
Very cool. um But what was I saying? Oh, so yeah, that had me all fired up the for anyways, for thinking about it.
00:28:50
Denis Tyrell
Folder.
00:28:54
echo_blades
And so that's cool. That's a ah new, I have just, There's been a lot of people that have had a lot of interest in the in the folders lately, and I haven't been one of them. this I'll get there, you know, but this one kind of got me all fired up.
00:29:11
echo_blades
So I think I like that.
00:29:12
Denis Tyrell
Good.
00:29:12
echo_blades
um
00:29:14
Denis Tyrell
i had an acquaintance. um He's someone I knew in the past, whatever. But he follows me on Facebook. And no, I did not deliver any pizzas.
00:29:22
echo_blades
Did you used to deliver pizzas to him when you were a little boy? All right. Damn it. All right. Damn.
00:29:26
Denis Tyrell
And, you know, he and he like he likes my story.
00:29:27
echo_blades
What about poutine? Poutine.
00:29:29
Denis Tyrell
he comments on my Facebook stuff. Yeah. he reached out to me today and he goes, yeah, i want to come over. And the the way he worded it, uh, he basically, he said like, i want to I want you to help me make a knife.
00:29:43
Denis Tyrell
I'm like, Hmm. Um, like, as in you want to take a course, cause I'm not doing it for free, but which is the first thing that came to mind, but he basically said, yeah, I want to, uh,
00:29:54
Denis Tyrell
i want to make I want to make some Damascus and then make a folder. This guy has no knife-making experience whatsoever. And i kind of had to let him down and say, well, you know, the Damascus is a two-day course. The folder is a two-day course.
00:30:08
Denis Tyrell
You have zero experience, so here's what it's going to cost. But he said he was still interested, so we'll see. I told him to wait until December when I start teaching that course. but
00:30:21
echo_blades
Nice.
00:30:21
Denis Tyrell
I have a bunch of people lined up to take that course now.
00:30:24
echo_blades
That's awesome.
00:30:25
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:30:25
echo_blades
That's well-deserved, dude. Yeah, well-deserved.
00:30:28
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. I got to get on it and start doing the material for that at some point.
00:30:35
Denis Tyrell
But speaking of folders, had a fun time making some progress on the balisong knife.
00:30:35
echo_blades
Right on.
00:30:44
echo_blades
Oh, yeah? Speaking of folders, where do you go get the supplies for that shit?
00:30:47
Denis Tyrell
Oh, well, you got to go to Maritime Knife Supply. They have a whole section on folders by... Yours truly. um So, yeah, go to Maritime Knife Supply.
00:30:57
echo_blades
Hey.
00:30:58
Denis Tyrell
Not only for folders, get all of your supplies that are knife making related. i don't know. Maybe he's got other stuff on there. um Steel, abrasives, equipment, folding material folding knife material, all kinds of stuff. So go go say hi to Lawrence. Give him some love and go buy some stuff at Maritime Knife Supply.
00:31:23
echo_blades
Yeah. You need to do that.
00:31:26
Denis Tyrell
And yeah, and then run home and hopefully you have an Ameribraid grinder that you can use all that stuff on.
00:31:27
echo_blades
Really awesome.
00:31:38
echo_blades
yeah That's cool.
00:31:39
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Oh, I got actually story today. um So I was, i have the Tobin jig, right? And I have the one and a half inch tool arm that came with it because I was using it on my broadback.
00:31:45
echo_blades
Mm hmm. Mm
00:31:50
echo_blades
hmm.
00:31:52
Denis Tyrell
So I've got a couple attachments. I mean, even though I got pretty much all the attachments for the Ameribraid, there's a few things that I don't have, you know, that that I want to use on the Ameribraid, and it has a two-inch receiver.
00:32:06
Denis Tyrell
So I'm thinking, oh, and i stupidly, I was thinking that I need to get a two-inch tube, and then I forgot that the two-inch square tube has weld seam in it.
00:32:19
Denis Tyrell
so they don't fit. So and I was like, oh, I gotta take the wheel. And then I'm thinking to myself, but even if I do that, how am I going to secure, you know, because the knobs are just going to tighten on the outside tube and then the inside is just going to slide and telescope in and that was stupid.
00:32:35
Denis Tyrell
So then today I'm like, why don't I just go get a half inch piece of angle, half inch thick angle. And I went to the steel yard, got a half inch piece of angle, slid it in there as a sleeve,
00:32:48
Denis Tyrell
Bob's your uncle. So, uh, yeah, mutts, nuts.
00:32:50
echo_blades
Mutts nuts.
00:32:52
Denis Tyrell
Uh, yeah, the, uh, the duck's crotch, whatever you want to call it.
00:32:52
echo_blades
Cat's ass.
00:32:56
Denis Tyrell
Um, that was a Toby.
00:32:57
echo_blades
What?
00:32:58
Denis Tyrell
That was a Toby thing.
00:32:59
echo_blades
was just, I, what the fuck?
00:33:02
echo_blades
Goodness.
00:33:04
Denis Tyrell
Um, I, I forget exactly what the, probably don't have the reference, right, but it was something like that.
00:33:04
echo_blades
The duck's crotch.
00:33:08
echo_blades
All right. All right. I'm to let you off easy there. Cause I'm.
00:33:14
Denis Tyrell
Um, um,
00:33:14
echo_blades
What?
00:33:15
Denis Tyrell
But yeah, made a little sleeve for it, and now I can use all my one and a half inch attachments. I wish i was going to do a little Instagram post on it for for folks, and it's got a little knobby knob to stop it from going in too far.
00:33:29
Denis Tyrell
and
00:33:29
echo_blades
Bro, what is up with you? Inch and a half fucking curves, knobby knobs.
00:33:36
Denis Tyrell
Hey, but perhaps it's perhaps it's your mind that is just in the gutter.
00:33:36
echo_blades
think you need to end this and go to bed. well
00:33:41
echo_blades
i don't know, man. I'm just, yeah, I'm just sitting here listening to your potty mouth, dude. Jesus. Anyways, back to your knobby knobs.
00:33:50
Denis Tyrell
I was trying to do an ad for Ameribraid. So if, yeah.
00:33:54
echo_blades
This is a great ad.
00:33:56
Denis Tyrell
So don't fret, even though Ameribraid has two inch um tool arm receivers that you can easily move you your one and a half inch tool arms over to the Ameribraid. Just get yourself a little sleeve.
00:34:11
Denis Tyrell
But it is an amazing grinder. They also have the Hyperdisk, which is their, Basically all in one disc sanding multi-tool.
00:34:21
echo_blades
Quick change, too. Yeah.
00:34:23
Denis Tyrell
So why yeah, go check out Ameribraid. We'll have a ah discount code soon for those guys.

00:35:04
Denis Tyrell
And i was i was actually nervous because... For the handles, i wanted to use titanium. And i the only piece where I get the when i get titanium, which is sacking metals, they didn't have anything smaller than three quarters.
00:35:18
echo_blades
What medals?
00:35:20
Denis Tyrell
Shut up.
00:35:21
echo_blades
What, say it again?
00:35:23
Denis Tyrell
Sacking metals. You are just in the gutter tonight. I don't get it
00:35:31
echo_blades
ah Okay. Second, let's go. Keep going.
00:35:34
Denis Tyrell
ah
00:35:37
Denis Tyrell
ah So the only thing that would have been better would have been like five eighths, but they didn't have any. So three quarters. I got to mill this down. I need to mill it down basically to a rectangle anyway. And these are to make the handles of the balisong knife.
00:35:51
echo_blades
Okay.
00:35:51
Denis Tyrell
Okay. So I've never milled.
00:35:54
echo_blades
You going to skeletonize them or no?
00:35:55
Denis Tyrell
They will be, there'll be some, I haven't decided what kind of little patterning crap I'm going to do on them.
00:36:01
echo_blades
okay
00:36:01
Denis Tyrell
I don't need to skeletonize them for weight reduction or titanium. They'll be light anyway. um But I've never machined titanium. And the only... i have... Remember last week I was telling you how I was trying to do the the spring, the relief for the spring, and that I burned up an end mill and made it look like a ball. So I was a little nervous on machining this titanium.
00:36:28
Denis Tyrell
So I did a bunch of research on like speeds and feeds for titanium, and it turns out that you need to run your tooling... Almost twice as fast.
00:36:38
echo_blades
Oh shit, I was thinking the other way.
00:36:39
Denis Tyrell
I know. Me too. Exactly. You need to run it really fast and do a very um small cuts, small feed.
00:36:42
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:36:48
echo_blades
Small, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:36:50
Denis Tyrell
And here's another interesting, and I talk about all this in the video, but you know the difference between conventional milling and climb milling, right? Okay.
00:36:57
echo_blades
for Up this way, that way.
00:37:00
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So which one's good and which one's bad?
00:37:05
echo_blades
Climbing's bad.
00:37:06
Denis Tyrell
Right. But if you're doing titanium, you want to be climb milling.
00:37:09
echo_blades
Oh. Hmm.
00:37:11
Denis Tyrell
Because the conventional milling just builds up heat. Because it's not actually cutting very much. So with the tool scraping on the metal builds up a lot of heat. And heat is like the enemy for milling titanium.
00:37:24
echo_blades
Nice.
00:37:24
Denis Tyrell
And when I'm milling, and one, because I'm so used to it, one time I did a pass. that I was using conventional milling just because that's where my head's at. And I'm like, why is it fucking chattering like hell?
00:37:37
Denis Tyrell
And when I switch back to climb milling, mills like a breeze.
00:37:42
echo_blades
Wow.
00:37:43
Denis Tyrell
But like easier than mild steel.
00:37:45
echo_blades
Yeah,
00:37:46
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So why it was, I was very happy after that.
00:37:50
echo_blades
cool.
00:37:50
Denis Tyrell
Milled it no problem.
00:37:51
echo_blades
um
00:37:52
Denis Tyrell
Didn't, I was afraid I was going to go through cutters. I thought there was going to be a few for fuck's sake episodes, but there wasn't.
00:38:00
echo_blades
ah
00:38:01
Denis Tyrell
So yeah, I got the handles um milled, ah at least primary milled. I got the holes spotted and drilled on the mill. So next episode, we actually should have this thing together to the point where like I can flip the handles. I haven't done the channels for the blade to sit in, which we'll do probably next episode as well.
00:38:25
Denis Tyrell
But so far, I'm pretty happy this has been going well.
00:38:30
echo_blades
Yeah,
00:38:31
Denis Tyrell
yeah But I did have an interesting comment.
00:38:37
echo_blades
yeah it was very very hard for me not to ruin it ah second ago.
00:38:37
Denis Tyrell
and
00:38:39
Denis Tyrell
yeah the you know You get these comments like, i guess people can't help but telling you what they would do.
00:38:51
Denis Tyrell
Even though they have no experience whatsoever. And I apologize if this guy's listening, but I'm going to read out your comment. um And he started the comment.
00:39:01
Denis Tyrell
like I would have forged it down instead of machining it. He did say, i love your content. Thanks.
00:39:07
echo_blades
He did. i was going to say, don't leave that out, asshole.
00:39:09
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah. He did. And, and then I'm like, you would have forged the titanium down and by the way, this, this, this two foot rod of titanium.
00:39:21
Denis Tyrell
It, I think I spent like $35 it. Like it wasn't expensive and I'm only using like 10 inches of it. So I'm using what? Like,
00:39:32
Denis Tyrell
$15 of titanium. Like it's not expensive. And he's like, Oh, I would have machined it down. And then, uh, I said, forging titanium is no joke. Plus you need to machine it anyway. So why waste your time forging it? All of the propane, all of the headache.
00:39:49
Denis Tyrell
And then, you know, and then he turns around and says, um, um In my career, I haven't messed with titanium yet. I'm like, then why the fuck are you telling me what you would do if you've never used this before in your life?
00:40:07
echo_blades
Oh yeah, but it wasn't, he saying he was trying to save material. That was his original thought.
00:40:12
Denis Tyrell
Right. But yeah, he's trying to save $4 worth of material by forging something and using $15 worth of propane. I mean, it just makes... The whole point of this is like, if you don't know what you're talking about, maybe don't comment what you would do.
00:40:27
Denis Tyrell
ah
00:40:27
echo_blades
Yeah. Do not participate in this guy's channel. It's not appreciated whatsoever.
00:40:35
Denis Tyrell
you know when people respond like you know they're experts and you know
00:40:40
echo_blades
I do want to say, though, that like this is one of the nicest, dumbest things, I guess.
00:40:45
Denis Tyrell
yes he was nice about it i'm just like yeah at least he was nice about it i have seen comments like this that are less nice and more stupid
00:40:46
echo_blades
Yeah. There's a way to be... you know Maybe he was just hadn't thought it through all the way, you know? But...
00:40:58
echo_blades
Yeah, like... I'll forge you dumbass. Yeah.
00:41:02
Denis Tyrell
Less nice and more stupid, but yeah, whatever.
00:41:02
echo_blades
You idiot.
00:41:06
echo_blades
That's a good title. Less nice and more stupid.
00:41:11
Denis Tyrell
yeahe but
00:41:12
echo_blades
I like that.
00:41:12
Denis Tyrell
that That describes you this episode. Okay.
00:41:15

00:41:20
echo_blades

00:41:22
Denis Tyrell
it. Less nice, more stupid. it's the That's the...
00:41:27
echo_blades
Yeah. might it was that That or it's going to be fucking inch and a half knobby knob.
00:41:31
Denis Tyrell

00:41:31
echo_blades
so
00:41:32
Denis Tyrell
Oh, that's that's a...

00:41:43
Denis Tyrell
You know, like I'm going to teabag you and drop the sack in.
00:41:45
echo_blades
Oh, geez. There you go.
00:41:49
echo_blades
Sack out, bro. All the time.
00:41:54
echo_blades
Get out of here.
00:41:54
Denis Tyrell
oh
00:41:55
echo_blades
This good stuff.
00:41:56
Denis Tyrell
man.
00:41:58
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. I do have another ah public service announcement on the military challenge um that we did have ah someone submit a photo. sort Sorry.
00:42:13
Denis Tyrell
He's got a YouTube channel. it's This is Bob. He's got, I, I, breton Brenton, Brenton, I forget his last name, something like that, submitted um a thumbnail for his YouTube channel that had a firearm in it and had the knife sitting on a firearm, a rifle.
00:42:33
Denis Tyrell
ah Got his channel demonetized for 30 Folks, do not put firearms in your submission picks because we can't use them because I'm...
00:42:45
Denis Tyrell
You can still win the challenge if you submit a pic like that, but it will not be in the winner announce video because I will not put an image that has a firearm in it.
00:42:56
Denis Tyrell
That is not allowed on YouTube. it will It will demonetize the channel, so I'm not going to do that. So do not submit images um that them.
00:43:09
Denis Tyrell
weapons not weapons guns in them
00:43:12
echo_blades
Thank you, Pew.
00:43:13
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, no pew-pews in your pictures. So just letting you guys know, don't do that. And it sucks because I know some guys are doing, I know one guy's doing a bayonet.
00:43:26
Denis Tyrell
and And it's funny, like i even had to remind myself because the the about the front 12 inches of that brass my sword is actually okay.
00:43:40
Denis Tyrell
And then I thought, I'm going to, in a future video, I'm going to I want to make an M1 Garand bayonet. And I think this is perfect for that. It's the right shape. It's the right you know size.
00:43:55
Denis Tyrell
I can make a bayonet out of it. And then I thought to myself, well, that's not going to be a very fun video because I can't actually show it on the rifle. Not that I have an M1 Garand, but um yeah, that's a bummer.
00:44:10
Denis Tyrell
And I won't, you know, I don't even know what I can talk about. Get out. Are you serious?
00:44:19
Denis Tyrell
You have an M1 Garand Bayonet?
00:44:21
echo_blades
I do.
00:44:22
Denis Tyrell
I just ordered one so that I could have it um like a cheap knockoff. And you actually have one?
00:44:28
echo_blades
Yep.
00:44:29
Denis Tyrell
Do you have the rifle by chance?
00:44:31
echo_blades
I don't.
00:44:31
Denis Tyrell
Oh, damn it. So, yeah, I will be making one of those. Stay tuned. But...
00:44:38
Denis Tyrell
that That doesn't help me.
00:44:38
echo_blades
You could use this one if you want.
00:44:44
Denis Tyrell
Who knew that you had something cool?
00:44:46
echo_blades
I have something really cool. But anyways.
00:44:50
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. So folks, reminder, no firearms in your military challenge pictures. Thanks.
00:44:59
Denis Tyrell
Jared, are you going to enter the military challenge?
00:45:01
echo_blades
No, I don't think I've done a challenge.
00:45:02
Denis Tyrell
How come?
00:45:05
Denis Tyrell
No, you haven't, you lazy bugger.
00:45:09
echo_blades
Yeah, no, I'm not. And I don't really have a reason other than like, you know, I got own things that I'm not doing. So I need to add another one to it.
00:45:18
Denis Tyrell
Maybe this will get you motivated.
00:45:18
echo_blades
So
00:45:22
echo_blades
I like, but I do, I do really enjoy the challenges. I think they're awesome way to get the community together and, The, the, what is it? The viewer portion is, is really cool.
00:45:35
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:45:36
echo_blades
Um, cause they, the community gets out, they get after some stuff and we to do some really cool stuff. So I encourage all you guys to continue to, uh, fill in for me and my lack of motivation on these challenges, but you guys do a great job.
00:45:44
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:45:52
Denis Tyrell
We're starting to see a lot more action in the Facebook group. So of people posting their progress. So yeah, that's cool to watch.
00:46:01
echo_blades
I probably should open it, the group, and then get it back in my algorithm because I haven't seen shit.
00:46:06
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah. Well, see it all because I'm the admin, but, but yeah, go take a look.
00:46:11
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:46:15
echo_blades
Nice.
00:46:17
Denis Tyrell
So yeah, I'm feeling better about my builds, about the, the sword. I got all, actually, no, I don't have all the materials. I have almost all that I'm waiting for a chunk of brass for the guard.
00:46:29
Denis Tyrell
um But other than that, I have the handle material. I've got, I got the frame material, all that stuff ready. So I'm going to be in hand sanding hell starting maybe tomorrow.
00:46:44
echo_blades
My buddy's got a really cool machine to help with that.
00:46:44
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:46:48
echo_blades
But it doesn't really work on humongous long officer swords.
00:46:51
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, I'll end up stabbing myself.
00:46:54
echo_blades
Mm-hmm.
00:46:54
Denis Tyrell
i the
00:46:55
echo_blades
Don't nobody say that last time. That turned into a whole thing.
00:46:59
Denis Tyrell
ah The blade on this one I'm not too worried about. it's the Fullers, and I don't know that the machine is going to really help me with the Fullers that much.
00:47:08
echo_blades
Hmm.
00:47:08
Denis Tyrell
Fullers are just fucking pain in the ass when it comes to hand sanding. So, yeah.
00:47:15
echo_blades
You know what, if I did join the challenge though, whatever I made, I would make sure that it had grip X on it.
00:47:21
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, I think that'd be good.
00:47:22
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:47:23
Denis Tyrell
You know so the blood drains off when you're fighting with it.
00:47:26
echo_blades
Yeah. It drains off. It adds a little bit more stick them to the, to the grip them, but ah for sure. But if you are looking or doing the military challenge or any other build, I suggest you go check out grip tech.
00:47:42
echo_blades
Industries, formerly Rock Solid Scales, and check out the Grip X, formerly Grip Tech handle material that he's got. He's got all kinds of cool patterns, different colors, and new versions of it out right now.
00:47:58
echo_blades
um So you can go check out the the website or the IG and reach out to Matt, do all that stuff, fill your card up, and use the discount code TTT10 for 10% off.
00:48:11
echo_blades
And get yourself some awesome um handle material that is so grippy. It's so grippy.
00:48:21
Denis Tyrell
And he's got so many cool colors and patterns now so yeah, I'd like
00:48:25
echo_blades
Really does. Like glow in the dark shit. Like I, yeah, I'm always amazed by ah the different patterns and and things that I'm seeing. So.
00:48:35
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. After Parker did that combo scales with the grip tech on the back and the carbon fiber on the front, I'm really digging that. So I'm going to get me some other colors and do some more of those combo scales like that.
00:48:51
echo_blades
Nice. That's what I would do. And I suggest you guys go do that too.
00:48:55
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:48:56
Denis Tyrell
Watch my video making combo scales.
00:48:56
echo_blades
Yep.
00:48:58
echo_blades
That's right.
00:49:00
Denis Tyrell
All right. Who do you got for Maker Spotlight?
00:49:06
Denis Tyrell
You don't remember.
00:49:10
echo_blades
I really don't.
00:49:10
Denis Tyrell
Okay. I'll tell you who I have since, uh, Jared doesn't remember. I have black custom knives, uh, no spaces or underscores any of that bullshit.
00:49:20
Denis Tyrell
Black custom knives says, says Michael black. He is a U S MC veteran. So he would appreciate the, uh, US Marines officer sword that I'm making. But he's got some cool knives, a lot of culinary knives in his feed.
00:49:37
Denis Tyrell
um I see he's got one that he that actually came up in my feed, one that I posted that had a crack, an integral with a crack in it. So that's unfortunate. But yeah, he does some cool work. I like his handles.
00:49:52
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:49:52
Denis Tyrell
He's got a cool little shape on his handles. So, yeah, go give him a follow. Right now, he's got only 239 followers. You guys need to beef that up.
00:50:03
echo_blades
Absolutely. Really good stuff.
00:50:08
Denis Tyrell
Okay, you remember who you have now?
00:50:11
echo_blades
I'm checking out this guy's stuff. Really cool.
00:50:17
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:50:19
echo_blades
Very good stuff. um i have...
00:50:24
echo_blades
Okay. It is shores underscore blades. That's S H W. Oh, S C H W. A R Z shores underscore blades.
00:50:39
echo_blades
Daniel's shores.
00:50:40
Denis Tyrell
Jared can't read.
00:50:42
echo_blades
No, I can't. And I damn sure can't read this language that it is in. That's, that's really lame that the, uh, Translate feature doesn't happen on the on the website.
00:50:57
Denis Tyrell
are you talking about?
00:50:59
echo_blades
um Oh, his IG handle, the the words that says Hagen, Schmeidl, Schmidt, Kussenhofer, As, Azul, and Pitzitzel.
00:51:09
Denis Tyrell
Huh.
00:51:09
echo_blades
It means Hand Forge Kitchen Helpers from Arzul and Pitzitzel. All right. Yeah, that's what that means. But, uh, dude does some crazy, crazy, crazy, cool stuff.
Admiration for Innovation in Knife Making
00:51:24
echo_blades
Um, uh, just, uh, started following him not too long ago, but he, um he has 459 followers. So we should, uh, definitely boost up that as well, but, uh, really good, uh, uh, kitchen stuff, um, was an exhibitor at the, uh, night Austria knife show.
00:51:45
echo_blades
Um,
00:51:47
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, which I'm planning to go to next year.
00:51:47
echo_blades
That was a while back. Yeah. ah But really, really cool.
00:51:51
Denis Tyrell
that um That fifth knife, that de mosaic, i very reminiscent of a Mareco Mamasi pattern that I've seen. love it.
00:52:03
echo_blades
Yeah. Oh.
00:52:06
Denis Tyrell
That chef knife, the real.
00:52:06
echo_blades
Yeah, like that. Yeah, no, no, I see it. What what is it? What do we call that?
00:52:11
Denis Tyrell
I don't remember what Mareco calls that pattern, but... it It just reminded me of one of his.
00:52:21
echo_blades
That little line at the bottom too on the core, that's really, really cool. um like that handle.
00:52:25
Denis Tyrell
Oh, yay. Oh, he's got... Oh, I didn't even notice that. So this is a mosaic used as cladding.
00:52:28
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:52:31
Denis Tyrell
That's that's ballsy.
00:52:32
echo_blades
Cladding, yeah. Yeah. That line is really definitive though, there at the bottom though.
00:52:36
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, so he's he's got... it looks like he's got a pure nickel shim, I'm guessing.
00:52:41
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:52:44
Denis Tyrell
And yeah, that's really cool.
00:52:46
echo_blades
I really I dig the handle too. It goes good with everything. Just a simple blacked out.
00:52:50
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:52:52
echo_blades
ah Yeah, that's good stuff, man. So...
00:52:55
Denis Tyrell
I don't often do that. Like, i don't, not often. I never do that. most it Like, a mosaic is, like, so precious. And then to use it as cladding, which means you need twice as much. And then to grind part of it away to to show the coarse steel is scary.
00:53:15
Denis Tyrell
But he it it worked out well. It looks really good.
00:53:19
echo_blades
Yep. right i did I'm trying to find the
00:53:26
Denis Tyrell
What are you trying to find?
00:53:26
echo_blades
the description. See translation.
00:53:32
Denis Tyrell
Yeah, he's in, I'm guessing Austria
00:53:38
Denis Tyrell
or Germany, something like that.
00:53:40
echo_blades
Three color explosion with Damask Apex Ultra.
00:53:40
Denis Tyrell
Anyway. Yeah.
00:53:47
echo_blades
Hmm. That thing's cool. You guys got to go check it out. It's the fifth knife on his, on his page there.
00:53:50
Denis Tyrell
Yeah.
00:53:52
echo_blades
ah Go give him a follow and tell him the boys at triple T said, what's up from the States.
00:53:55
Denis Tyrell
Yeah. Yeah, hopefully I'll see him next year in Austria.
00:54:01
echo_blades
Yeah. What are you going by yourself? Fuck off.
00:54:04
Denis Tyrell
Whoa, you think you're going?
00:54:07
Denis Tyrell
I'm taking the wife. You'd just be a tag-along.
00:54:11
echo_blades
What if I take mine?
00:54:13
Denis Tyrell
Okay, do it. Let's go.
00:54:14
echo_blades
Okay. um but Whatever, dude. Have fun by yourself.
00:54:19
Denis Tyrell
no take take Lynn. it would do the little We'll do a vacation afterwards.
00:54:23
echo_blades
Yeah.
00:54:25
Denis Tyrell
Because we're planning on going like either... probably northern italy after austria think that'd be fun like venice uh like flow like like puglia a bunch of other um cities in the north
00:54:33
echo_blades
What's in Northern Italy?
00:54:36
echo_blades
Okay, I'm down with that.
