Author Topic: Drop point knife build along RGK Trad Bowhunter Member # 11395 posted                  I offered to make a knife as a prize for a turkey contest so I started it today. This will be a drop point blade. I am using a saw blade. Stamped into the blade was "Made in Norway" so I feel good about the steel it made from. After roughing out the blade, I softened the handle so I can drill holes for the brass pins. Then I cleaned up the edges and polished the blade. After sharpening the blade, I drilled the pin holes. For the handle, I am thinking of using walnut and antler or bone.

I cut apart a small rack to make the sides. I used J.B. weld epoxy to attach the antler to the walnut sides and then drilled the holes for the brass pins. I also use J.B. weld to attach the sides to the tang and in the pin holes. The pins are a tight fit that get pounded together. The sides are over sized and will be sanded to shape after the epoxy sets. -------------------- Member: WI Bowhunters Association Member: WI Traditional Archers Member: American Broadhead Collectors Club Member: Sherwood Forest Bowmen Posts: 887 | From: SE WI | Registered: Jan 2007  |  IP: Logged |  john mccabe Trad Bowhunter Member # 9374 posted                     Lookin good, cant wait to see this one finished!
