RE: How I make custom @freedompoint knives step 5: finishing the handle
Very cool @freedompoint. I didn't realize you made knives too!
They look good. A friend of mine was using for his wood work a mixture of polyurethane, teak oil and bee's wax, heat it up slowly in a pot, till the wax melted and he would rub the mixture onto the wood with a rag... looked so smooth and it made the grain stand out so much.
Donno maybe something lile it could work on a knife handle too.
Thanks for sharing
That sounds great! I admit, the metal is my skill, the wood work is still very new. It sounds like mixture would look good and that wax would seal right?
I guess it would yes, but I believe the oil does that as well right? It was just a really pretty finish on his art work and furniture he made. I can't wait to move on our property in June...I can finally have a metal shop again!
