Hi there,
I'm sure this thread has come up a thousand times before, but here we go again. I have made the decision to try and handle a knife. I was considering the Mora Scandvik 12c27 blank, its cheap and of decent quality. Is there any other relatively cheap blade blanks around that are decent? <£30> The second question I ask is whether or not pine is a suitable material for the handle (there is an abundance very close to where I live) Is it too soft? Would Beech be suitable alternative?
I'm all kitted up with files, araldite and sandpaper I just need to get down to ordering the right materials and get through the next batch of my AS Level exams.
Thanks, and sorry for yet another question on knife handling,
