I’ve had a very good experience with this course. I have always been interested in learning how to make knives using CNC. I finally pulled the trigger on a CNC router. Learning how to do the programming and setting everything is a daunting task! However, this course definitely helps reduce the learning curve. Yoni does a wonderful job of explaining everything in detail and in a way that’s easy to understand. He will also make himself available to you if there are ever any questions as you take the course. He was very helpful. I would highly recommend taking these courses if you ever want to get into CNC knifemaking. Now, to figure out how I can afford that CNC mill…..🤪!
This set of classes has far exceeded my expectations. I've got a good deal of fusion experience but always struggled with a good work flow for managing all the aspects of design and manufacture to include model and feature management and CAM. It can get messy and there are more ways than one to do it. This course has taught me the best way so far to deal with some of the decision points on how to manage them in a simple way. It has also given me more confidence in the way I design blades in CAD. The course includes many design for manufacturing tips and tricks which are the types of things gained usually only by trial and error. Learn from the course. This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all the other topics that are covered in detail in the courses. The content is extremely well thought out and includes relevant detail for anyone that is relatively new to Fusion or other CAD software. I especially enjoyed the sheath and sheath mold design course. The course is worth it and it is a major time saver. I only wish I had taken it earlier and not thought so much about its potential value to me. Highly recommended even if you are just thinking about it.
Since I enjoyed the course I can create 3D models of my design much easier. It is amazing how detailed the courses are. I purchased the completely bundle of all courses, although I am not able to work with a CNC yet. The courses help me a lot to get basic knowledge for milling and and what measurements need to be taken into consideration for later CNC milling. Especially dealing with diameters for the milling head. I am not a native speaker, but Yoni is talking very clearly in his courses and he is teaching all steps visually, so it is easy to understand. I also want to point out the high grade of professionalism of those videos. I couldn't be happier with my decision. It was worth every cent I would buy again without hesitation. Even if you don't have access to a CNC shop, you can use the created models to 3D print test pieces to check hand fitting and size.
Another awesome course! I can’t say enough good things about it! If you are on the fence about taking this course I can assure you it’s well worth it. Yoni isn’t charging nearly what these things are worth! Again 5 stars! Keep up the awesome work.
★★★★★ Absolutely mind-blowing value! I just finished the Blade Milling Course and I’m still in shock that it only costs $200 – this easily feels like a $2,000+ premium course. The videos are extremely well produced, perfectly paced, and packed with real, actionable knowledge. I learned more in this one course than I have in years of trial-and-error on my own. Any time I had a question (and I had plenty), Yoni responded lightning-fast and went above and beyond to make sure I fully understood. His passion and willingness to help are off the charts. If you’re even remotely interested in blade milling, do yourself a favor and grab this course. Best money I’ve spent in a long time – 100% worth every penny and then some!
From the beginning of my knife making Yoni has been there to answer anything and help where he could! I knew when he announced the beta that this course would be well put together and simple. I struggled for a while trying to learn Fusion on my own to model my designs. I searched high and low for a tutorial that just didn’t exist. Yoni literally did the heavy lifting on this course! He created something that didn’t exist before and the product is incredible. Anybody can use this course, so if a lack of experience is holding you back let me tell you, don’t let that stop you! The model I made a video of is one of mg newer models, the Flyway. I made the original cad file on my own on a different platform but decided to use it to for this class and I promise this model looks better after following the class. I will be updating the model to reflect the one from the course in the near future! I can’t thank Yoni enough!
This knife CAD course is outstanding! It’s well-organized, concise, and straight to the point, saving you time and money. With over 10 years of expertise condensed into a top-notch course, it offers valuable insights you won’t easily find online. The Course 2 CAM component is equally impressive, enhancing the learning experience. Highly recommend for mastering knife design efficiently!
I've had a router cnc for years but never got around to learning the CAM side of Fusion 360 because whenever I tried to teach myself I'd get overwhelmed and quit. Yoni's handle course explained everything simply. He walks you through setting up all the toolpaths you need. Later in the course he does a toolpath deep dive where he explains even more if you're interested, but even just by using his standard toolpath settings I was off and running . I just got the course and I've already milled out 24 sets of scales to be used in an upcoming batch of chef knives.
Taking Yoni's class 1 on knife and handle design was very well put together and thought out. I have had experience with CAD design in Fusion 360 for about 5 years self taught, and within each of the segments of this class I learned 4-5 new things. I am completely new to the world of knife making, and this class along with the additional classes will be a huge help in that journey. For anyone considering the classes I would highly recommend it. The additional benefit is future updates to the class, and being able to progress as you can and going back if you are stuck on something. Great Job Compliance Edge on another great product!
I’ve been making knives by hand for over 12 years and have always wanted to learn how to utilize CNC machining methods to improve my process and maximize my time. When I got the opportunity to beta test this course, I was extremely excited and equally intimidated. Yoni did an incredible job of explaining Fusion and focusing on the aspects of it that benefit knifemakers. Everything is broken down into easily digestible steps and the results happen quickly, so you stay engaged. If you are considering utilizing any aspect of CNC for your blades and/or handles, this course is the fastest and easiest way to get started. Incredible value here from a top notch maker and individual.
Very detailed course with high-quality video material. If I have had any questions, Yoni has answered them within a day. Super happy with the courses.
No-nonsense class; worth it.
So much information to fast track your progress, it’s a steep learning curve for me given zero CAD experience but the fact you can watch and rewind as many times as you want is great. There’s no way I’d of been able to get my head around Fusion with out this course.
The course is wonderful very detailed and lacks nothing. Would recommend it to anyone who is interested in CNC.
This course is a tremendous value! I have been machining for 30+ years. Yoni does a great job of showing what you need to know to get up and running quickly. Great job!
This course is precisely what I was seeking. As an experienced industrial designer who primarily uses SolidWorks for my design work, I’ve been contemplating transitioning to Fusion. This class provided me with the essential knowledge to facilitate this transition. Additionally, I’m embarking on a new venture in knife design, with aspirations of acquiring my own CNC machine in the future. The course comprehensively covers everything necessary to set up and begin working with a CNC machine. I am immensely grateful for Yoni’s dedication and effort in creating this course. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone interested in this subject.
Use something other than fusion 360. It’s way too expensive for a hobbyist. After my original review Yoni reached out and sent me the link to the free version of 360.
I already had the courses on design and handles, they are excellent and well presented! Thank you for a great product!
Dude, this is awesome. I left a pretty long review in the designing course. So I'll keep this short Yoni has not disappointed. Once again, I picked up so many things in this course. I can't thank you enough. It makes my life so much easier. I mean just the little things too like changing opacity so you can see through them. I never even thought of that. It always drove me nuts that I couldn't see my part through it and until I watched his video I was able to figure that out. I don't use the CNC and CAD design everyday so this definitely kind of makes it nice. I watch it several times and it just helps me remember refresh blah blah blah. I can't wait for the sheath making course. And the knife manufacturing course. Thanks again Yoni.
Okay,so.. I've been making knives since about 2016. When I started looking into learning and or videos for knife making and CNC machining there wasn't a lot out there specifically for knife making. I always thought that that would be cool to make a video step by step with CAD design and machining and everything but never got around to it. And it's a good thing because I would have missed a lot of stuff. Yoni did a phenomenal job with his designing class. If I was a beginner wanting to learn to design a knife in CAD and had never touched CAD before, I'd be able to do it with his video course. He makes it so easy. Especially for me because I am a visual learner. I wish something like this was around when I started. I mean the little things like the sledge, different ways to do it and etc. I picked up so much valuable information and so many tips. To be honest, I was a little sticker shock at first because I don't sell a lot of knives. I'm retired and I don't have much money but after the watching his course it's without a doubt. Worth every penny. I always say if I can at least learn one new thing it's worth it but I learned so much more. I can't praise it enough. So if you're a beginner and you want to learn to design a knife and manufacture it on a CNC machine, this is pretty much the only course I've ever found start to finish. It would have been nice to have this at least 8 years ago. Lol. I have so many good things to say but I'm running out of space and not sure people will read this info because it's so long. But definitely if you are looking specifically for learning to design a knife in Cad and manufacture it, this is your course.!!!! Thanks again! yoni.
The tutorial was easy to follow and clearly explained, look forward to the rest! Thanks!
This is a great course on both CAD/CAM and handle design/cutting. Having some Fusion 360 experience, I can confidently say I learned a bunch more and got my money's worth! Yoni tells you just what you need to know to be successful and he gives you information you need to know to ward off potential issues or handle issues that come up. Basically, he sets you up for success!
Yoni has managed to compile the most intimidating (for me) information and processes into the most digestible and easy to follow collection of courses I've ever come across. As a person who struggles to learn new information without watching someone demonstrate and mirror in real time and hands on, this was a huge win for me. I anticipate these courses and the content to just keep improving with every release. Yoni has created something very special and valuable here!
