That's great Ken but had to read it twice before I found the part about worn out file blades. It is interesting because I have two buck knives but both of them are hunting knives and no folders. So sounds like it might work. Also sounds like lots of grinding to me but that doesn't bother me. I've got a good bench grinder and my 1sm. I'm getting a little excited to tell you the truth. A week ago I thought I'd never actually make a knife and now I think I might. It may not be pretty but it will be mine. I'm certainly open to any suggestions and tips before I even think about starting on this. How hard do you think a file is as in Rockwell what? Hate to wear out two grinders and a dozen belts for one knife but then again I might anyway.
