I am planning to make my first knife and am looking for some suggestions on what I should buy.
I do not have the proper tools yet so I am probably going with a hack saw, files, drills, a bench grinder, and then stones for the final edge
any suggestions on what steel I should get, and handle design?
I am probably going to use oak for the handles because it is affordable if I have to redo it.
one last question, where would you recommend getting the steel from? the is one small metal shop in town but no real choice of steel just nameless spring steel.
