1st knife finished
« on: September 11, 2008, 09:41:00 AM »
I have not been to Tradgang for some time.  Had to divert my attention to other projects for a while.  Here is my first attempt at knifemaking.  I made it from a circular saw blade, red oak handle epoxied on, hilt is a 3/4" copper end cap.  Will begin another soon.

Thanks, guys!  I made this for my brother-in-law.  He needed one for a backpacking trip that he was going on and I wanted a reason to get one finished.
