Hi everyone
Hope you are all doing well
I need advice about making an hunting knife
I'm doing it just for fun and increase my skills in knife making .
I'll start from a machete blade , working it at cold temperatures to avoid to do heat treatments which could cause distributions and also because I'm lazy
So I don't know how to proceed .
Last time I've made an horrendous Ka-Bar essentially because of lack of knowledge and expecially materials .
I'd like to make a Tanto knife, I'd like to use brass for the handguard but I'm concerned about how it would look with.
Not sure if it would aesthetically pleasant
I will make a sketch ASAP this evening
I would also advice about proportions of the blade itself , angles etc .
