Trade Points?

(1/3) > >>

Cacatch:
Does anybody have any trade points they'd like to get rid of? I'd like to make a few turkey whacker arrows for this spring. If so, what would you be looking for in trade?

Thanks,
CP

jonathan creason:
I've got a good bit of bandsaw blade that makes real good trade points if you'd like to cut some out yourself.

Cacatch:
Do you just cut out the lengths with a hacksaw Jonathan?

jonathan creason:
I just break the blade to shorten it.  I cut out the points with a dremel tool.  I've annealed all this, so you'd have to heat treat it, but after you do that it'll hold a razor sharp edge really well.  Makes pretty good lightweight knives, too.

Cacatch:
I've never worked with bandsaw blades for points before - how do you break it? Put it in a vice with the length you want sticking out and whack it off?

Also, what would you be interested in for trade?
