File to Knife.....Any BuildAlongs??

[Nala]

Hey all,

I have never made a knife before, but always wanted to try it just to see what I could do.  I found an old, BIG file that would be perfect to use.  The problem is that I don't know where to start.

I was wondering if there is a website that has a guide or a build along for a project like this.

If you all know of one or any other materials that I could use to guide me along, would you be kind enough to post it?

Any other advice or tips you can share would be great as well.

Thanks for your time.
