Draw Knife Build along - from Old saw blade and basic tools

<< < (2/5) > >>

Pins - I just used Nails - round ones I had tiny bit smaller then Hole - Hammered in without glue - cut off ends 1-2mm longer then the handle and hammered while holding on the Vice (bend over the ends)

picture is of completed (but before put pins in )

- needs final sand and putting some oil finish on - but didn't bother sanding that well left some dents and scrapes and sanding marks as will quickly get damaged anyway as i use my tools a lot .

the blade is sharp already but will need final sharpen with fine oil stone then I Hone on leather with honing paste until blade is shiny and can shave with it

any questions or comments post below ..-

Thanks Del

should be a useful collection to my tools - this has a 6" blade where all my other ones are 10-12" blade and even though have a lot control felt a small one would be useful ..

Pat B:
Well done!   :OK

globalmark:
Thanks PAT

I also cut out 5-6 different carving Knives - basically for carving not bow making but bit think a couple might be useful doing arrow plate inlays and things like that - big saw blade so can make lots tools out of it ..
i used to do lots woodturning and make chisels from leaf springs sometimes for that ..
