home depot,menards,lowes
they all sell brass rod that is like 1/8th inch (i think )
just drill holes that make it fit snug,both thru the handle and the shank of the blade
and wa la, nice looking pins  ;)

my next i think i am gonna use either copper or piecs of steel from an old tomato cage
might even try small diameter square steel bar
i always wanted a harley,untill it became the "thing to ride"
i ride because i love to,not to be part of the crowd

Frode, if you go to page #3 in this forum(around the camp fire)i have a thread titled "stickers"
these are my most recent knives(steel anyhow)that i have finished up,just need to make sheaths now

someone awhile back posted a build along on how to make knives from saw blades
i followed that and didnt have any issues


Real nice work!  I really like seeing things that someone put their own hand to.  There's a character there you just don't get with a stamping die.  I like 'em!

If it doesn't rap the lintel, it might not be a longbow.
