I built my first stock removal knife in 75', did a few from flat files and a couple from big old round saw mill blades. Never anything fancy. I got the bug a year or so ago to hot forge and took a couple of classes from David Lisch. I am very interested in forging blades from whatever metals I can scrounge up, springs, bolts, files and old hammers. This site is full of great information, thanks for having me.
