There is a lot of pride involved when hand crafting something. The knife looks nice and I would be proud of it if I made it.
Having said that.......25 bucks at BIG 5. |

Easy method to make a great knife. Buy a okay knife, take a few hours and hand sharpen it, and now you have a great knife. Learning to properly sharpen a knife by hand with stones is a great skill to learn and it takes time and patience and a steady hand but it is worth it in the end.

In this day and age of full automation, and I want it yesterday on a silverplatter why isnt anybody posting a report attitudes, the craftsmanship time and technique he used was very impressive. Not to mention that the finished product was nothingless then bad ass. thanks for the link.

I watched guys in Central America make machetes out of old leaf springs. No power tools used.
