MrVader Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Found some odd eye bolts laying around so decided to use one for a knife. Turned out pretty decent for my first project. Going to work on cleaning it up and attaching a handle over the next few days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlpservicesinc Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Do you know if the material would harden.. I don't recognize the base part as being a high carbon scrap piece.. Nice start.. And even it it's not hardenable it's stil good practice.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Looks like a concrete anchor maybe. Let us know how it heat treats. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrVader Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 I didn't like the way it turned out so I never heat treated I'll try to do another one soon and treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Ah, before you spend more time making another knife heat treat that one so you know if it's worth using the bolts. If it gets screwed up, so what, you don't like it already. Hmmmm? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrVader Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 I'm making one from a broken pipe wrench right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdaleh Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I think you need to go down to the knife making section . Get your self a cool beverage of choice a snack and read thru it before you hurt yourself or some one else. Not trying to be mean but if you don't know what you are dealing with knife making can be dangerous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
