« on: November 06, 2010, 10:20:08 pm »
well i have put together a couple of knives latley
steel ones for a change instead of stone
been wanting to do something differant lately,been feeling like im in a rut
so i  dug thru my stash of started projects and found a couple of blanks i made a while back
so decided to finish them up
i like how they turned out,but i gotta say i like the narrower handle better
now i gotta make some sheaths for them

they are made from circular saw blades,have real nice 25* edges on them,will take the hair off my arms(what little i have)
the light colored wood is curley maple
the darker one is paduak
i did a little file work on the spine of each blade,just for style/looks

heres some pics,let me know what ya think,and thanks for peeking  ;)
sorry,im not a photographer  :P







                                                                                       peace,
                                                                                            tim

Nice knives Tim. I have a friend cutting out some trades and blades with his plasma cutter for me. How did you get the initial angle on the edge.
