Title: Now this is a HUNTING knife!
Post by: LONGBOWKID on February 01, 2009, 10:36:00 PM
If it don't cut whatever I want it to, I can beat something to death with it!   :biglaugh:  

Made out of an old planer blade. Im guessing 3/8" thick.

Took almost 5 straight hours of grinding, and wore out a 6" disk.

Now, all I need is one really sharp bit to drill my holes for pins with. Once I accomplish that, I'll get some walnut scales on it.

Heck throw it in the fire right now before you drill it. Cobalt bits work great. Thats what I use for planer blades and sawblades.<><
