Does anyone know where to get a good draw knife? I have an old rusty one but it needs to retire.
-
Antique stores or flea markets are a good place to pick one up. I see them on Craigslist sometimes.
-
Show us a pic of your old one.

You can always make one, buy some mild steel put an edge on it, afix the handles your done.
-
put a post in the trade section.i am sure someone has an extra lying around.

seabass had a nice one he let me use at last years Classic. Wish I could find one like that!!

I checked over at flea bay, 966 draw knives were listed, looks like $20 will get you one in pretty good shape.
The thing about draw knives is they come in a bunch of sizes, shapes and handle configurations.
I like a heavy, straight blade, with the handles on the same plane as the blade, others may prefer a curved blade.
If you buy one of the auction site, be sure it is the kind you like before you pick one out.
