Rubble + Shovel = Cool Knife
Expert craftsman turns garbage into gold...
ohn Heisz is a professional carpenter from Ontario, Canada who has been in the commercial construction business for over 30 years. His YouTube channel, which features videos of woodworking and other workshop projects that he is working on, has over 185,000 subscribers and more than 33 million views.
In this video, Heisz makes a beautiful knife using metal cut from an old shovel for the blade and a handle cut from old concrete rubble. It just goes to show that anything can become a work of art in the hands of a true craftsman. While most of his videos show the various stages of production, it should be noted that Heisz uses YouTube as a means of sharing his work and inspiring others, not as a tutorial. Anyone wishing to replicate his projects should already have a strong working knowledge of the workshop, particularly how to work safely.

to look at and would make a great prison knife but
with no blade guard your fingers will get cut when the knife slides
back in your hand when stabbing something. The concrete handle will crack
the first time the knife is dropped on a hard surface.

I am also surprised that he is using that right-angle grinder without a blade guard.If you think it makes easy work of cutting concrete and steel just wait till you see what it does to flesh and bone.
