Here is the list so far. It isn't getting much longer, but it is getting wider with people deciding to make two knives. We have a good mix of steel and stone, but w could always use more. DOn't be shy.

I mentioned on the KITH string on PP that we had one going on here, maybe a few of them will join in.

Madcrow,
Put me in for 2. I really like makin' knives. t's almost as addictive as makin' bows.

This is really getting exiting! I have my first knife epoxied up drying as I type this. I feel like a kid at Christmas! We should do this every quarter.
It is putting a little pressure on me to make sure I am ready in time. It is also going to have to learn to make a sheath. I think this is a great for "forcing" me to try my best at making a knife someone else will be proud of.

Check out this link. He uses nails to make the holes for sewing, I use a drill. He also gouges out leather in the center to help it bend, I just wet, fold and clamp it.

Be careful if you use the hot wax bath at the end. It would be better to experiment with some scrap leather and ckeck the temp with a thermometer. If it gets too hot and you drop the sheath in, you will have a wrinkled up mess and a learning experience.
