These looks awesome. Did you have any experience with knife making or did you just jump right in? Any resources you’d recommend?

Nice work! My first three looked a lot like a prison shank.

Awesome! Knives look good! Especially with using a 1x30 harbor freight. I made a few with the same belt grinder and they didn't look near that good. Didn't care for the 1x30 and coudnt justify a 2x72. I just got a 2x42 dayton but havent had time to use it yet. I would definitely consider the investment if you are already making knife looking that good!

That's an awesome knife! I've always wanted to make one but never gotten around to it

Jig for the majority of stock removal. A little freehand with some high grit belts. I'll try freehand more down the road but for now a jig is the way to go.
