Hello people ,well as my title says I have very limited tools , meaning I don't really have power tools and all that sort of thing but I wanna make a knife. I know I sound weird talking about how I have nothing but I wanna make something, but the design is somewhat simple, like a kiridashi knife.
Um for the steel , I have what appears to be a lawnmower blade ? But smaller.
How would I go about trying to make this without power tools and stuff , I have files and just tools that I need to put more effort into but I don't mind.
Also , the bevel , would I be able to get it somewhat "Razor sharp"? This way ?
If anyone thinks I can , please list out things I would need that would replace power tools ,
My tools are very limited
