I know it has nothing to do with turning but you are all my friends and I wanted to run an idea by you.
I made a knife handle some years ago and threw the knife in my toolbox.
It has stood the test of time and is still in reasonable condition.
A young lad I currently work with showed a lot of interest in it so I gave it to him today.
This got me thinking about doing some engraving on knife blades with my cnc machine so I had a little play with a cheapy old knife from Drains drawers init?
The idea I have in mind is getting hold of some knife blanks of all sorts, making bespoke handles and individualise the blades and flog em at craft fairs on Neil's stall LOL.
Is it a stupid idea????
