Stiletto Dagger Build - Ep1 - Design
I have been playing with the idea to do a live knife build for quite a while and finally realized that if I don't start right away, i'll probably never do it. So, here goes!
DESIGN:
I start with a handle length of 90mm, Quillon Block width of 6mm and a blade length of 180mm as a rough guide and pretty much make up the rest as I go along. Real Pro stuff, i know ...
Note: There is no real timeline here so bear with me on this journey. I'm a full time maker so I do need to earn a living every now and then.

Would you like to see me work live, say 2 - 3 times a week at a specific time or do you prefer an edited video of a project?

I'm Neels van den Berg, an American Bladesmith Society Mastersmith and a voting member of the Knifemakers' Guild of Southern Africa.
My journey in the world of bladesmithing is more than just a profession; it's a fervent love affair with the craft. Every moment spent in my workshop is a dedication to honing and perfecting the intricate details of my creations. As an artisan, I immerse myself in a perpetual state of learning, always seeking to elevate my skills and push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of knifemaking.
Daggers, with their historical significance and intricate designs, have become the focal point of my craft. The challenge lies not only in the technical aspects of creating these blades but also in infusing each piece with a soul and character of its own. Crafting a dagger is not just about the blade; it's about telling a story through steel.
Thank you for being a part of this adventure.
Warm regards,
Neels van den Berg
