Someone who knows how to post the link help out here.

Check out Dan Gray's tutorials page. He's put a lot of effort into collecting all that's good to know.

There used to be a forum called "Custon Knife Directory", and I had a lot of links to some great information, but they changed their name, and not one of the links works anymore. Not bright!!

I would also recommend the book, "How To Make Knives" by Barney, and Loveless. It will show you several types of knifemaking, and sheath making also.

You can get it at amazon.com or any knifemakers supply house.
