I have got a CRKT M16-13Z that i was wondering if i could convert this into a fairly good fixed blade. i Have little use for it at the moment but i somehow made it secure i would like it to be a boot knife.
sounds like a silly question but bare with me

Thanks

You can find a VERY cheap fixed blade that will be MANY, MANY, MANY times stronger than that. There's just no way to do it that will be worth the time/materials when you foil it against simply buying a cheaper fixed blade.
 
Best way to convert it is to post it here on BFC in the section For Trade: Knives and Tools and ask for a decent fixed blade. :thumbup:

Specify that you want a boot knife in a similar style, and you can get pretty much exactly what you want for maybe an hour of time (including typing up the listing, emailing back and forth, packaging, and going to the post office) and $4.05 (for USPS Priority shipping).

Four bucks and one hour, pretty good deal, I think.
