#High Carbon Stainless Steel Knives

[solradguy]

Between 2009 and 2011 no one knew what to get me as a gift for gift giving events such as christmas so everyone just bought me knives/random sharp things. I have so many random knives and swords scattered around my bedroom because I don't know what to do with them

2 tanto (like a straight single-edge dagger)

a "tactical" kukri

1 butterfly knife

1 unsharpened shitty flea market katana (blue)

1 very sharp high carbon steel katana (brown)

1 claymore sword

2? ...3? machetes

a finger ring claw thing with a curved knife coming out of the knuckle

a 3-bladed Wolverine claw lookin Spencer's gift shop skull... thing (very unsafe, very sharp)

I don't even know what the hell else I've got laying around but this definitely isn't all of it. They're just hidden in random places all over my room, I haven't seen some of them in like 5+ years. I don't even have any formal training for how to use any of these

#textpost #The brown katana; the claymore; and the butterfly knife are the only ones I actively maintain/care about tbh #The katana and claymore are the only high carbon steel ones too. The others are all just stainless iirc #(I can't do any tricks with the butterfly knife before anyone asks) #All I know how to do with any of these is swing the claymore hard enough to make it whistle like a baseball bat #The rain of knives ended when I had to start literally begging people to get me anything else haha

Hello! I have always been interested in wood carving.. I have some nice pieces of wood I have collected and I would like to know what kind of knife you recommend?

Absolutely! I'll be the first to say you can carve beautiful things with almost ANY SHARP knife. I've used pocket knives to machetes and full on survival knives, so long as it's kept sharp, it will work. Efficiency is the trade off.

The easiest suggestion is, of course, the venerable Morakniv knives. The orange 511 can routinely be had for less than 10 USD, and you get quite a lot of knife for that money. The finger guard is nice if you have minimal knife experience and are concerned for any possible mishaps. The steel is excellent and either available in stainless steel or carbon steel. Carbon will rust, stainless will not rust as easily. The carbon steel gets a little sharper and stays sharper longer. The knives are scandi-ground which refers to the grind of the blade. Scandi ground blades work wood very well and are easy to sharpen at any skill level. Which is good because you'll need to keep it sharp to prevent accident cuts. Specific carving knives like the other pictured knife are the most efficient for wood working. The blade grind is much finer for detail work and wood removal, but they are typically best suited as just carving knives. They can be more fragile to work with and do not usually feature a finger guard.

Another, more premium option, is knife makers like Helle or Casstrom. You get a nicer looking knife in this price tag range of around 100~ USD. These will work like the Mora knives but typically can have more premium steel and handle materials. You can also get handmade knives from places like Etsy, local manufacturers and craftsmen, and other online retailers. There is a sea of great knives available out there and the price will only increase from that humble Mora 511.

Of course, the swiss army knife also makes a great whittling knife. However, the fact that the blade can close onto your fingers and cause an injury makes me hesitant to recommend folding knives to anyone looking to start carving. Maybe try it after one has some experience in with other knives first. I like carving with pocket knives, but non locking blade knives come with their own set of precautions.

There is also some other good items to pick up to make life easier, and your carving adventures more enjoyable. Cut resistant gloves and woodcarving wrap help protect your fingers and hand from accident slashes, (a stab will still go through) A small or bench sized whetstone and leather strop are essential to keep your tools nice and sharp for the most pleasant carving experience. YouTube has some great resources on how to sharpen knives. Last item is a fine toothed saw. This is a Silky brand, but any fine tooth saw will work. This is used to trim off your carvings from the host stick and cut wood to the size you want to work with. I prefer the Silky saws for the exchangable blades and high performance they have.

Anyways, I hope this helps get you, (Or anyone!) started with this extremely fun little activity. Feel free to ask anything else you might want to know!

National Knife Day

Grab or pull out your knives! Today we celebrate them, no matter their size, style, or brand! It is unknown who started National Knife Day or when they started it, but it was being celebrated by at least 2011. It is also unknown why the observance takes place on August 24, but one explanation appears to be that the date is connected to the Bowie knife. It was on this date in 1838 that Rezin Bowie, the brother of the knife’s namesake, wrote a letter to the Planters’ Advocate claiming he was the person who had created the knife.

One of the earliest tools known to humankind, the knife was present at the beginnings of the development of human civilization and came out of the need for survival. Early on, knives were used as primitive tools for digging and construction, as weapons, and to hunt, fish, and gather food. In contrast to today, almost everyone carried a knife. The first knives were made of stones which were cracked to make a sharp edge like a blade. Sharpened stone tools became more advanced during the late Lithic periods, and then even more so during the Copper and Bronze Ages. Metal blades appeared, which weren’t as sharp and didn’t stay sharp as long as the stone blades that preceded them. This led to the introduction of sharpening stones.

During the Iron age, tools became stronger and more durable. Iron knives came on the scene and stayed sharper longer. Steel blades followed iron ones, and not much has changed since then. Steel blades, which are made of an alloy of iron that has carbon, are the most common today and are known for being durable and efficient. Cobalt alloys and titanium are also used in knife making today.

Early knives didn’t have a separate handle and blade—they were all one piece. Eventually, handles began being made out of carved bone, wood, and metal, and then, rare materials like mother-of-pearl and tortoiseshell began being used. Today, wood is one of the most popular materials used for knife handles, and metals like stainless steel are also common. One other change besides that advent of a separate handle was the invention of the folding knife.

Knives have many different purposes in the present day, some of which are the same as they have been for thousands of years. Some ways they are used are to prepare food, as a utensil when eating food, by surgeons and medical professionals, to dress an animal, to fillet a fish, and for carving. There are various types of kitchen knives such as the chef’s, utility, paring, and bread knives. Most knives are affordable to just about anyone, but there are high-end custom knives such as Randall Made Knives, most of which sell for $400 of more. In many locations, there are laws that pertain to knives: ownership laws exist for certain types of knives, open and concealed carry laws apply to certain types of knives, and other types of laws exist, such as those that say a robbery is an “aggravated crime” with more severe punishment if a knife is involved. There also are certain areas where some types of knives are not permitted, such as at schools or on planes.

How to Observe

Knives should be used more today than on any other day of the year. Here are a few ideas on how to spend the day:

Do some knife throwing.

Do some whittling.

Prepare some food using a knife or multiple knives. It might be beneficial to first learn what type of knife is appropriate for different types of food.

Get a pocket knife, which has many uses.

Check for knife promotions such as giveaways and sales happening today. This is often a large part of the day.

Give someone a knife as a gift.

Clean, oil, and sharpen your knives.

Carry your knives around in a holster.

Cut a lot of things with your knives, such as food, paper, and rope.

Selecting the Perfect Hunting Knife: A Comprehensive Guide

A hunting knife is an indispensable tool for outdoor enthusiasts and avid hunters. It serves various purposes, including field dressing game and handling campsite tasks. With a wide array of hunting knives available, choosing the right one can be overwhelming. This blog post provides an in-depth guide to help you make an informed decision by exploring the key factors to consider, such as blade types, handle materials, and other important features.

Blade Types: a. Drop Point: The drop point blade is versatile and suitable for general hunting tasks. It features a curved spine and a durable point, providing excellent control for skinning, slicing, and precise cuts. b. Gut Hook: Designed specifically for field dressing, the gut hook blade has a sharpened hook on the spine. It allows for safe and easy gutting without puncturing the intestines. c. Clip Point: Ideal for detailed tasks like caping, the clip point blade has a concave curve and a sharp point, enabling precise and delicate cuts. d. Skinning Blade: The skinning blade, with its sweeping, curved edge, facilitates efficient hide removal from game animals while minimizing the risk of meat punctures.

Blade Materials: a. Stainless Steel: Stainless steel blades are popular among hunters due to their rust and corrosion resistance, durability, and ease of maintenance. They retain sharpness well. b. High Carbon Steel: High carbon steel blades offer exceptional strength and edge retention, making them suitable for heavy-duty tasks. However, they require regular maintenance to prevent rust. c. Damascus Steel: Damascus steel blades feature beautiful patterns created by layering different steel alloys. They are visually stunning, durable, and sharp.

Handle Materials: a. Wood: Wooden handles provide a traditional and visually appealing look. They offer a comfortable grip but require periodic maintenance to prevent cracking or warping. b. Rubber: Rubber handles provide a secure, non-slip grip, even in wet conditions. They are easy to clean and offer excellent durability and shock absorption. c. G10: Constructed from fiberglass soaked in resin, G10 handles are lightweight, durable, and resistant to moisture and chemicals. They provide a reliable grip in various weather conditions. d. Micarta: Micarta handles are made from layers of resin-soaked linen or paper. They are highly durable, moisture-resistant, and offer a comfortable grip.

Tang Types: a. Full Tang: Full tang knives have blades that extend the entire length of the handle, providing superior strength and balance for heavy-duty tasks. b. Partial Tang: Also known as hidden tang, this design features a blade that does not extend the full length of the handle. Partial tang knives are lighter but may be less robust.

Additional Features: a. Blade Length: Choose a blade length based on your specific needs and preferences. Shorter blades offer maneuverability, while longer blades provide better cutting power. b. Sheath: A quality sheath is essential for safe storage and easy carrying of your hunting knife. Look for a durable, secure sheath that allows for convenient access. c. Blade Edge: Decide between a plain edge or a serrated edge based on your requirements. Plain edges offer precision and ease of sharpening, while serrated edges excel at cutting through tough materials.

Conclusion: Selecting the right hunting knife is crucial for a successful hunting experience. By considering factors such as blade type, materials, handle construction, tang type, and additional features, you can find a hunting knife that suits your needs. Remember to prioritize durability, functionality, and comfort to ensure a reliable tool that will serve you well in the great outdoors. Enjoy your hunting adventures!

Slice, Dice, and Chop: Mastering the Art of the Kitchen Knife

In the bustling heart of every kitchen, there's one tool that reigns supreme – the kitchen knife. From prepping ingredients to crafting culinary masterpieces, the kitchen knife is the unsung hero that makes it all possible. In this blog post, we'll explore the world of kitchen knives, from their essential features to the different types available, and why they're the indispensable tools every cook needs in their arsenal.

Unveiling the Anatomy of a Kitchen Knife

Before we delve into the intricacies of kitchen knives, let's take a closer look at their fundamental anatomy:

Blade: The blade is the most crucial component of a kitchen knife. It's typically made from stainless steel or high-carbon steel and comes in various lengths and shapes, each suited to different cutting tasks. From the sharp point of a chef's knife to the serrated edge of a bread knife, the blade determines the knife's versatility and effectiveness.

Handle: The handle of a kitchen knife is where comfort and control meet. It's often made from materials like wood, plastic, or metal and is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in the hand. A well-designed handle provides a secure grip and reduces fatigue during prolonged use, allowing for precise and effortless cutting.

Tang: The tang is the portion of the blade that extends into the handle. A full tang extends the entire length of the handle, providing maximum strength and stability, while a partial tang may extend only partway into the handle. A full tang is generally preferred for its durability and balance, ensuring that the knife feels solid and well-balanced in the hand.

Types of Kitchen Knives

Now that we've covered the basics, let's explore some of the most common types of kitchen knives and their unique characteristics:

Chef's Knife: The workhorse of the kitchen, the chef's knife is a versatile, all-purpose knife with a broad, tapered blade that excels at chopping, slicing, and dicing fruits, vegetables, meats, and herbs.

Paring Knife: The paring knife is a small, versatile knife with a narrow blade that's perfect for precision tasks like peeling, trimming, and intricate cutting work.

Bread Knife: With its serrated edge, the bread knife is designed to slice through bread and other delicate foods with tough exteriors and soft interiors, like tomatoes and cakes, without crushing or tearing.

Utility Knife: The utility knife is a mid-sized knife that bridges the gap between the chef's knife and the paring knife. It's perfect for tasks that require more precision and control than a chef's knife but more cutting power than a paring knife.

Santoku Knife: Originating from Japan, the Santoku knife is similar to a chef's knife but features a flatter blade and a more pronounced tip, making it ideal for slicing, dicing, and mincing vegetables, meats, and fish.

Why Every Cook Needs a Kitchen Knife

Versatility: From chopping and slicing to dicing and mincing, kitchen knives are essential for a wide range of cooking tasks. Whether you're preparing ingredients for a simple weeknight meal or crafting an elaborate dinner party spread, a good set of kitchen knives ensures that you have the right tool for every job.

Precision: A sharp, well-maintained kitchen knife allows for precise, controlled cuts that result in uniform pieces and even cooking. Whether you're julienning vegetables or filleting fish, a sharp knife ensures that your cuts are clean and precise, leading to professional-quality results every time.

Efficiency: A sharp, efficient kitchen knife makes quick work of food prep tasks, reducing the time and effort required to prepare ingredients for cooking. With the right knife in hand, you can breeze through meal prep with ease, allowing you to spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying delicious meals with family and friends.

Safety: Contrary to popular belief, a sharp kitchen knife is actually safer to use than a dull one. A sharp knife cuts through food with minimal effort, reducing the risk of slips and accidental cuts that can occur with a dull blade. Additionally, a properly maintained kitchen knife is less likely to slip or twist in your hand, further reducing the risk of accidents.

In conclusion, the kitchen knife is the ultimate tool for any cook, providing versatility, precision, efficiency, and safety in the kitchen. Whether you're a professional chef or a home cook, investing in a good set of kitchen knives is essential for unlocking your culinary potential and creating delicious meals with ease. So sharpen those blades, hone those skills, and get ready to slice, dice, and chop your way to culinary greatness with the timeless art of the kitchen knife.

Exploring the Versatility of Mild Steel Round Bars and Comparing them with Other Steel Types and Metals

Introduction:

Steel is a cornerstone material in various industries due to its strength, durability, and versatility. Among the different types of steel, mild steel stands out for its widespread use in construction, manufacturing, and fabrication. In this article, we'll delve into the characteristics of mild steel round bars and compare them with other steel types and metals.

Characteristics of Mild Steel Round Bars:

Mild steel, also known as low-carbon steel, contains a relatively low amount of carbon compared to other types of steel. This results in a material that is ductile, malleable, and easy to work with, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Mild steel round bars are commonly used for construction purposes, such as in the fabrication of frames, supports, and structural components. They are also utilized in manufacturing machinery, automotive components, and general engineering applications.

Advantages of Mild Steel Round Bars:

Cost-Effective: Mild steel round bars are more affordable compared to other types of steel, making them a cost-effective choice for large-scale projects.

Easy to Fabricate: Due to its low carbon content, mild steel is easy to cut, weld, and shape, allowing for efficient fabrication processes.
