mini survival knife (from M40)

That is a great idea. I think most of the little knives are over priced. But this one is worth every dime!
 
i saw this webpage a couple of months ago and gave it a try. seems like a really cool design for a "Mini-Kit". i made one but find it next to impossible to make it sharp, i tried every trick i know, still no luck. maybe others will have more luck. ---- Eric
 
There was someone on EDCForums who was making and selling these cheap. This kind of stuff makes me want a Harbor Freight belt sander more than ever!
 
That is awesome. I have a few used up hacksaw blades at home. I'll have to attemp this.

Don't bother shaping the handle and blade bro, just wrap some duct-tape around as a makeshift handle then sharpen the edge with a file and sandpaper.....it still gets the jobs done just as well !!!!:thumbup:

thanks bro!
thought of it and was thinking where can i find the equipment to use :D maybe i can use the school stuff! hehe :thumbup:
 
i have made several, i have away 8 or 9 in the pay it forward thread altogether i think.

like M40 i found a pile of cheap hacksaw blades so i broke them and made little blades from them.

i have one with my packing tape and one downstairs on the bench for cutting and scraping things that would hurt a knife.

i am able to get all of mine shaving sharp...
 
yea i have a siguy hacksaw knife awesome for just twine or tape or something similar i use it for leather aswell i have to take some pics of it, i even smo glued some leather to the sides to improve the feel
 
I had one like that held up to my left eye once at a traffic light (Pays to pay attention). The kid had apparently used a sidewalk to grind it to shape and wrapped the handle in tape. I got a really, really good look a it, all point, ratty edge. He didn't get my money BTW.
