10cent survival knife

Thought this was a good read - could be modified any number of ways. I have seen people do this with long sawzaw blades which are thicker and stronger also.

It's best to anneal them first, they are very brittle.

Nice find and a interesting twist on how a hacksaw blade can be reworked.

Granted one small bend and this is toast, so using it carefully is the main concern.

The best part was his copyright rant. I love passion like that.

Seems like having a serrated handle would be counter-productive.

I agree. The serations on the back of the handle are a little risky... Having speared several fish though, I'm not sure a hack saw blade would take the kind of abuse a fish of any consequence is going to dish out either. Other than that, it's a pretty cool idea.
