rivets

[butch_51]

I'm new to this board so this is most likely a very dumb question for you all but here goes. I would like to make a new handle for an extremely old carving knife my father gave to me many years ago but have no idea where to obtain the brass rivets. The wood working is no problem for me, but finding the rivets is.

Welcome to Bladeforums! Sit tight, one of the moderators will probably move this to a knifemakers' forum where they discuss supplies. We also have a new forum where you can discuss maintenance and upgrading knives.

Shop Talk - BladeSmith Questions and Answers
The Toolshed: Knife Care, Maintenance, Tinkering & Embellishment

These would be the best places for this question.

Any number of knife making suppliers will carry a various assortment of rivets.

Jantz Supply in Oklahoma 1-800-351-8900
Knife and Gun finishing supply in Ariszona 1-800-972-1192 also on internet
Texas Knife maker supply 1-888-461-8632 also on internet

Koval supply, knife kits supply. Just to name a few.

Hope that helps. Welcome to the forum.
