The process of making a knife:
Step one. Cut the main profile
First, remove the handle from the saw blade, for this the author needed two screwdrivers. Well, then we draw the desired profile of the blade on the canvas. The author took as a basis the shape of the knife that he had.
That's all, you can start cutting. We work as a grinder, there is no need to rush, metal cannot be overheated. If it turns blue, then the blade will not hold sharpening. Water the metal during cutting.
Step Two Grinding
Next, we make rough grinding of the blade, the author used a grinding machine for these purposes. He also made a light polish using GOI paste. The author did not bring the blade to shine, because he is lazy, and he makes the blade for himself. But if you wish, you can make a blade for the mirror, the metal here is pretty beautiful.
Step Three A pen
Putting a pen, here we need wine corks. We cut them and put the right amount on the handle, well, and then cut off all the excess and grind the handle on the sharpener. In the end, everything is soaked with glue, and after drying, the handle is sanded. With good assembly, the junction is not even visible.
As a result, the pen can be painted, soaked in oil and so on.
Step Four Sharpening
As a result, we sharpen the knife, the sharpening angle of the author was 30 degrees. The knife is sharpened to the state of the blade, he cuts paper easily, and the author easily shaves hair on his hand with a knife.
That's all, the knife is ready, not counting the small final improvements that were left overs. I hope you enjoyed the idea. Good luck and creative inspiration, if you want to make such a knife. Do not forget to share with us your ideas and homemade products.
