February 19, 201313 yr Old farrier rasp forged into small knife, I borrowed this style from a knife pic I found on the Internet. I like the idea of not having to make a handle for it, The handle is actually pretty comfortable. There is a rough grind on the blade, still needs heat treat, tempering and finish grind/sharpening. I love these farrier rasps, the texture makes them look very hand made. I have been using a small 1"x30" belt sander for the 2 knives I have made, works ok but I see that a 2x72" grinder will be on my wish list for the future!
February 19, 201313 yr Nice. You can use a 4x36 belt sander to grind knives too. They're a bit cheaper than a 2x72 ,unless you build one yourself.
