Good work.. Nice to see files, rasps, saw blades etc all being recycled. Way better than chucking em in the bin !!

Yup, not only that, you get the satisfaction of making it and save yourself £££££'s on buying a knife that's mass produced and not tailored to your needs.. It's a win win situation !! :D

I love the recycling of well used tools aspect of it all. They have a history before they were knives. That's cool goodjob

I really like the fact that you can tell what it once was, might be useful too as an knife that ca sharpen my axe. I must get around to doing something similar myself this year.

What a lovely collection of knives you've created.

I love that you use what's there, and in doing so, create individual, solid tools.

Your railway spike knife is my favorite.

Very well done, and thanks for sharing! http://i666.photobucket.com/albums/vv29/helixpteron/happy0034.gif
