What would be the very basic tools you would need for this? I am toying with the idea of trying to make something like a nessmuk or bushcrafter type knife in stainless!
I can do heat treat for you if you need it, grind the bevels etc. Do what you can, and if you ned help with something, give me a shout mate.
Could also make the blade to your design if it seems too much.
Red what are you using your pillar drill for reloading at that speed, I was planning to get an RTO head for finishing 12g hulls? hopefully not that as mines doesnt go that slow!!
