Here are some pics of some little knives I made with broadheads as blades. I would drill the handle and put a screw in arrow insert in and you can screw the blade in or out.

And here are a few Knapped knives I have made

Honestly I have no idea. I have a hard time keeping them sharp so I would say not to great of a steel but it was all I had at the time! LOL

I am gonna try my hand at saw mill blades pretty soon though.

I like your knapped blades.

What sort of material did you use? It looks a bit like glass.

Mick, the first one is Green Sheen Obsidian, but the others are all in fact 1/4" glass. Its a great material for beginers to start with. Those were the first blades I knapped.
