KNIFE MAKER
This is my first post on the knives I make and while I dont pretend to be in the same league as the experienced makers who show thier work here I thought to show a little WIP on a few that are underway at the moment.
Having got my 2x72 belt grinder done I have been having a bit of fun learning about its capabilities and making a few new tool heads or re-making one and that has enabled me to make a good start on a few different designs of knives.
I had a good sweedish hacksaw blade so made this one for te kitchen. Too hard to drill without carbide drill bits so ground it for a non drilled pin in the stick tang handle
One of the heavy old files I had been given was near 3/8 tthick so I drew up a mini cleaver for jointing rabbits etc.
