Hello all,
I'm a complete beginner but wanting to learn about making knives. I've been reading and studying as much as possible and want to start putting together my shop.
My questions are what basic tools should I be looking at. Do most people use a bandsaw to cut out patterns or use a grinder. If a bandsaw, what is a good one and I'm assuming theres a difference (besides just the blade) between a wood and a metal one.
Also, I was thinking about building my grinder with the no weld grinder plans. Whats everyones experience with these.
Thanks for the help and many more questions to follow I'm sure.
