Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades DIY Knife Tutorial

Okay, sense I'm leaving for a trip wednesday I figured I better get this knife done.

After the epoxy has set I grind the pins flat and profile around the edges to give the handle the same shape as the blade.

Then I grind a taper so the handle is narrower at the finger side than the spine.

(I forgot to take pictures this)

I then use a contract wheel to contour and give the blade a "Coke bottle" shape.



Time to clean up the edges.







Ready to start hand sanding. Take your time and do this right!

Using the buffer to find my scratches.



Still more work to do.
