Best blade steel for Huntng knife
I'm wanting to surprise my boy with a new hunting knife with a handle made out of the deer antler he got this year. Any suggestions on what the best steel would be. I was looking at maybe D2 blade with a full tang.
Also any suggestion on where to buy the blade? Thanks |

If you can find an old crosscut saw, it makes excellent knives. Cut your blank with a cold chisel and shape on a grinder. Do not heat the blade at all.
|
I hope this blade which you said you liked and what is looking.
I have a problem and i can not show it to others unfortunately. For which i apologize to everyone. |

This is for future blade knife Kelly.
Blade of steel H12MF. Ruh and a photograph with two plates antler handle. |
The only two kinds of knife steels I use for hunting are D2 and whatever 440 steel Buck uses. I like to carry both with me.
|
I will respond to the post of d80hunter with two question:
1. If ever he enjoyed a knife with a blade of steel and steel RWL-34, ELMAX ? 2. And what he said was the difference in the steel H12MF, D2 and 1.2379 ? |
|
Many thanks to Kelly that goy the video for me.
If these feel good to put the handle. |
