just a newbie here but I need your help.
would leaf spring steel be good enough for a blade? and if it is do I need to heat treat it?
what should I use for the handle? some kind of wood?
would a Khukari like knife be too much for a beginner?
Id like to make a big knife just not sure where to start, I am a body man by trade so Ive worked with different kinds of metal, not just sheet metal. but Ive never made my own knife.
thanks
