I am thinking of trying to make a rifleman's knife for myself. I like the long taperred blade designs that the Old Dominiom Forge Knives makes.
The problem is that I have never made a knife before. What do you suggest would be the best way to go about regarding making/shaping the blade? Should I use a file or buy steel stock? I am not familiar with all the different types of steel.
What methods can you suggest to this amateur?
Thank you,
Billk
