Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Modern Guide to Knifemaking, survivalist Laura Zerra, one of the stars of Naked and Afraid on the Discovery Channel, shares her essential knifemaking tips and tricks, including step-by-step instructions for both forging and stock removal. We all use a knife pretty much every day, but for Zerra, her daily life often depends on the blade she takes with her into the wild. She's learned about what works and what doesn't, what steel will hold an edge, and what nuances in blade design will make or break a knife. From design to sharpening, A Modern Guide to Knifemaking covers every step in the knifemaking process. To begin, you will consider what you want your knife to accomplish, develop a design, and make a prototype. Zerra takes you through choosing and buying steel for your knife and then teaches you to build your own forge. You will learn forging basics and then move on to forge the shape of your knife and make the blade tip. From there, you will cut the blade profile, grind in bevels to make the edge of the knife, heat treat and temper your blade, grind and polish it, and make a handle and sheath for it. You will also learn sharpening techniques to maintain the edge of your new knife. Throughout, Zerra has included Pro-Tips from some of the leading knifemakers working today including Ken Onion, Kaila Cumings, and Mike Jones. A Modern Guide to Knifemaking covers every detail of knifemaking so you can make yourself the perfect knife.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a beginner knifemaker, you need to read this book. To be a successful knife maker, not only will you have to learn how to make knives you will have to learn how to sell them. Clyde had famous hunters and writers recommending his knives in newspapers, and Field and Stream Magazines.To be a member of the Knifemakers Guild you will have to submit to the board promotional materials in the form of a Catalog of your knives. Clyde had authored three excellent catalogs promoting his knives.The first half of this book is about Clyde Edward Fischer's life. The second half is about how I made thirteen of his knives. I would suggest that a beginner bladesmith should take the American Bladesmith Society's "Introduction to Bladesmithing". Class. It is a two-week class that will teach you how to forge, grind, heat treat and finish knife blades. The ABS also teach a one week "Handles and Guards" Class.Clyde had his Grandfather's blacksmith's shop consisting of a bellows forge, anvil, hammers and tongs. At first, he had an industrial 6-inch diameter grindstone. Later, I think he purchased a 2X72-inch belt grinder. He may have added a buffer for polishing the blades. A powered buffer is the most dangerous machine in a knifemakers shop. It has been known to take a blade from one's hand and drive it into your groin, foot or some other body part. I would suggest that you learn to hand finish the blades. Do not buy a powered buffer.As an Apprentice, Journeyman or Master Bladesmith, I would recommend that you recreate some of the Fisher knives. They are well designed for their purpose and are good looking. They are as appealing today as they were when Clyde made them. I sold the knives that I made in a short period of time.
