Description
Knifemaking for Beginners: StepbyStep Guide to Making a Full and Half Tang Knife
The best way to start in knifemaking is usually with a fixed blade knife, and this photo rich guide with carefully detailed instructions offers two projects: a full tang knife and a hidden tang knife. Following the individual construction principles for each, readers learn every phase of the knifemaking process. Only a few simple tools and a suitable workspace are needed, with inexpensive materials throughout. Drawing on decades of teaching beginners with no metalworking background, the authors offer clear, practical answers to the questions new knifemakers ask most, from how to tell when steel is properly hardened to which woods work best for handles.
Written by Stefan Steigerwald, one of the most prominent knifemakers in Germany, together with Dirk Burmester, a professional technical translator with a long standing passion for knives.
