buy a beer first and spend some time reading stickies here, maybe a book and watch some youtube vids on how to make knives
The beer is only if he is old enough to drink .... the stickies is always good advice
Luca,
Fill pout your profile so we all know a bit about you. Knowing where you are, age and occupation, etc. will help us make suggestions. It may also allow a nearby maker to ofer some help and even a piece of old equipment.
I would suggest the first real too be a 2X72 grinder. The better the grinder type, the more versatile and longer lasting it will be. The grinder is the most important tool you will buy, and 'cry once" is good advice here.
A forge is fun to have, but totally unnecessary in the beginning. Many very accomplished makers never had a forge. HT can be farmed out or done at a nearby makers shop ( if they know you are nearby).
Everyone knows my thoughts on using angle grinders for cutting up steel. There is a good reason they are called angle grinders .. not angle cutters! A high tension hack saw is a very different tool from an average hack saw. It only costs about $25. They are available at all the same places regular hack saws are sold, but for some reason most folks are not familiar with them. Use good Lenox bi-metal blades ( or similar) in it and it will zip through bar stock faster than you would ever believe.
The biggest trick to getting fast and accurate cuts on bar stock with any device is to have the bar stock firmly clamped down on a rock solid table. A big, solid, saw horse shaped work table for cutting and filing is a good thing to build. Use a 2X12X 60" for the top and 2X6 legs and braces. Make it so about a foot of the top sticks out past the legs on one end. Screw it together with 3.5" #10 deck screws ( glue the joints for even stronger construction). If possible, set the legs in holes filled with cement. This will give you really solid surface for clamping things to file and sand. It also makes a good straightening table. A good work table should be the first knife tool you make. A shop full of knife making tools with no solid work table is like a race car with no wheels.
You may think a bastard file is slow, but clamping the bar down allows all the energy to transfer to removing steel, not moving the bar and table. A good set of quality files is a must. I always suggest getting files before getting a grinder. A 10-12" bastard mill file, a 10" second cut, and a 8-10" half round ... and a file card ... are a good starter set. There are special files that remove steel wonderfully. Magicut is one. A 14" magicut will take a bar of steel down to a well shaped sword blade in a couple hours. Unless you have developed some real skills, a belt grinder may take as long and the result may be less appealing.
. So I am trying to find some good tools. Here are the things I am thinking of getting an angle grinder with an abrasive cutoff wheel, a grizzly belt sander, a charcoal forge, a drill and some wood oils. if there is anything that you think I should add or remove please tell me.
