My first couple handmade knives

[Stinky_Hooker]

Well Ive found another addiction. This is my first one of hopefully many more. I learned a TON over the process. I dont know how many hours I got in this little thing but its a ton over a period of about 3 weeks. Theres a lot that goes into it with heat treating and such. I still have a little more work to do and to finish the handle. Its small just at 7" overall. Red Oak handle.


Its started out life as a file. I wanted to try my hand at it first, next I have to order some good tool steel.






Its not much but I sure am proud of it.











Here is my next one roughed out. Its an old Nicholson wood rasp that belonged to my grandfather.

Number two


Walnut handle out of an old wood rasp.










Anyone else fooled with making knives? Ive got to get some kydex to make sheaths with and my next order will be some 01 or D2 tool steel to make some from.

Thanks for looking.
