Thread: That's it, I wanna make knives!!

These ones were made with chainsaw chain, pics nicked from the web













And a tidy one for hunting



Then some made from cable




They are not hard to make, you just need an eye for detail, a forge or gas set, welder and disc grinder and files etc, or just heat and a hammer with an understanding of what you are wanting in the end product both visually and practically.

I often weld pruning lopper blades together at work to make tough knives that can take a epic beating, can cut steel wire with it by hammering with whatever i can find, usually a 15 inch crescent

My pruning lopper knife made from two blades welded together, it has tape on the sharp edge to protect my glovebox contents
