This Broken Deba Knife Tip Got a Complete Restoration

This Deba knife came in with a broken tip, and instead of the traditional stone-only approach, I repaired it using my belt sander to reshape the profile and bring the tip back. Deba knives are thick, tough blades designed for heavy work, but a snapped tip can completely change how they perform. In this video, I walk through my process for safely removing steel, controlling heat, and rebuilding the tip before finishing the edge to a razor-sharp result. This is a conventional method—but it’s safe, controlled, and effective when done correctly. 0:00 Intro 0:46 Snapping Off the Damaged Tip 1:38 Designing the New Edge 3:00 Wear Proper PPE 3:18 Restoring the Tip 6:16 Sharpening with 120 Grit Belt 7:37 Sharpening with 600 Grit Belt 8:03 Polishing the Spine of the Knife 8:41 Deburring 8:53 Cleaning and Final Result 9:25 Paper Cut Tests 10:53 Bloopers Tools & Equipment I use https://www.supergrit.com (Belts) Use Vinny25 for 10% OFF Toolker https://amzn.to/43L1XHG Vevor https://amzn.to/3Z1vb2p Ken Onion https://amzn.to/4dCngic Ken Onion Blade Grinding Attachment https://amzn.to/4kcJgTb Harbor Freight 1x30 https://amzn.to/4dG4qGU Mask https://amzn.to/4kcM7LQ Ear Pro https://amzn.to/3SNMQaa Bluetooth Ear Pro https://amzn.to/4mwmqHD Angle Guide https://amzn.to/43bAdM9 BuckTool https://amzn.to/3FoinMM Twice As Sharp https://amzn.to/44OkST3 Dremel https://amzn.to/3Sf38J0 Apron https://amzn.to/4kqZqYO A Frame Sandwich Board https://amzn.to/4mBcIE6 Wood conditioner https://amzn.to/4laqkoa https://sharpworx.net use theknifeguy10 for 10% off To Help Support The Channle: buymeacoffee.com/theknifeguyreno Follow me at: Official Website: https://www.theknifeguyreno.com/ Facebook: https://facebook.com/theknifeguyreno TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theknifeguyreno?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theknifeguyreno/ YouTube: @theknifeguyreno
