Hi folks long time no see. Hopefully this is an easy question. So many folks on here make a lot of knives and I was wondering how you cut the blanks out so fast? I recently came into a good bit of used metal people were tossing. Bandsaw blades, circular saw blades, farrier rasps, and some other pieces people were gonna toss. So far I have mainly been making my knives using an angle grinder and dremel tool as that is what is at my disposal. I've been cutting and cooling so as not to lose the heat treatment on the hardened metals as I don't have a way to heat treat at the house. The farrier rasps are the toughest to work with so far. I'm working on a small froe out of one of them and its going well just a lot of grinding. The tough part is gonna be the handle but I can get away with a full tang as its only gonna be a beater for splitting spoon blanks. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. On a side note the bandsaw blades are roughly 1/2" tall with a thickness of 1/8". I believe they are 36 inches long but I can get more exact measurements. Long story short if anyone would like some I'd be more than happy to cut some pieces and mail them to folks. I don't mind parting with a couple of the farrier rasps either, free to a good home. Thanks folks.
