Pappy:
A couple more finished and a neck knife in the works, handle all fitted and ready to heat treat and temper blade probably today. I love file knives, getting low on quality old files , guess i better get out and find some more.  ;)

I dig em!
Something about small knives that is just satisfying

White Falcon:
Nice.

Gimlis Ghost:
Sharpest blade I've made was made from a industial type power hacksaw blade.
A bit thin and more flexible than you'd want for heavy duty work but sharp as a scalpel.

Stock removal method leaving the saw teeth on the back edge.
No annealing needed this way. Just don't let the grinder overheat the steel.

The blade I used, found cheap at a salvage store, was long enough for two knives. I still have half the blade. Gave the first knife to a friend, never got around to making the second knife.
