  • Yeah Rob I just bought my first true knife blank, just have to make a handle for it. Not sure I want to get into the forging of the blade itself. There are 1,000`s of knife blanks to be had on line. My first is a 3" Damascus drop point blade.

  • 9786073488?profile=RESIZE_710xThat looks great.

    I love watching forged in fire but I’m afraid I’d burn down the entire neighborhood.

    this is as close as I’ve gotten.

  • I am thinking it might be a fun hobby to get into once the thrill of making guitars and stringed instruments is gone

  • Good one too.   Oh and I did not notice the eagles head at first look. Fantastic.  The brass what-cha-ma-call-it is very nice too.  Have you seen the videos about making knives out of old files?  Might suit your next one.  

    I had a talented friend who used to make knives and make good money at it.  I never bought a fancy one, but he gave me an all metal one made from a Dodge truck leaf spring.   It is still a using knife out in my shed.   Sadly that friend passed on.  Brain anyeurism.
