Looks great Mike. I made a carving knife from a hacksaw blade and surprisingly it is my favorite even though I have a nice Pfeil carving knife for similar work. Just goes to show that self made and cheap can be just a good or better than the expensive ones.

Beautiful knife Mike…I’ve been looking at buying one but with what you’ve done and what Mike in Norway said about the hacksaw blade, it doesn’t seem hard to build one and I’m pretty good at building things out of metal and now I’m inspired….so what did you use for a blade?

Thanks Mike and Pete.

Tim – I used a reciprocating saw blade. You can use a floor scraper blade as well.
