Cutlery

[Dorno]

Although I have been making pens for years now I have not really ventured past there and now find its time to get stuck into some other items.
I am looking for any tutorials on turning cutlery or whatever hints anyone has to offer ?

I look forward to hearing from you all.

Cheers Ian

Sorta.......tell me more about what you want to do. I have made several knives but the lathe wasn't involved.

Google.

Knifeforums.com

bladeforums


Both forums have sections for those who make knives, and people in those communities are very friendly.

ETA.

Also, North Coast Kn.. awe never mind.

You may want to check out PSI or Craftsupply, they sell various kits.

There are some kinds sold by clapiana here on IAP. You could also try Rockler and Packard. I often hunt thrift stores and buy nice pieces and then make new handles for them.

Thanks Everyone for your help. The main thing I was after was not so much the cutlery pieces but a tutorial on how to turn the handles on lathe. All of what I have picked up hear though will come in hand for upcoming projects.


Thanks ian
