There is a huge amount of information on this forum and knifenetworks forum. It will take you a while but just start reading through and you will learn more than enough to get started that way.

www.knifenetworks.com
 
start looking around for what tools you have at home. Files, drills, hacksaws...stuff like that too.....

I just cleaned up my favorites folder and have these all saved in a word document.

Wow Greg! Thanks for sharing that. Don't mind if I copy and paste that do you? I'm sure that took alot of hours to put together.

My goodness... Yeah, I think I'll be hookin' up with those links as well. Thanks, we appreciate the trouble you took for us.
 
You are all welcome and thank you. I missed some links when I first posted the pages; so I've edited it to add them.

Greg
