The rifle has no will of its own it may be used for evil but there are more good men than evil men and evil will be corrected by good men with rifles.

I wish I had the skills to make knives. I often have custom knives follow me home ! I am also easily dazzled by leather work. I have a custom sheath that allow me to carry a fixed blade knife in a horizontal position.

I have forged some knives. I started because I was doing farrier work. I enjoy it but haven't done much this past year.

Sometimes they have HC or LC stamped on the head. If it's low carbon your better off making a tomahawk with a high carbon tip welded on.
