So you want to be a knife maker?

You need to know that if you're serious about getting into knifemaking you can expect to drop $5,000 plus dollars to buy GOOD equipment. Unless you're mechanically inclined and can build some knifemaking machines/equipment, this is an expensive hobby to get into. You're going to need an anvil, hammers, metal/wood bandsaw, propane or coal forge, tongs, protective PPE to wear, drill press, buffing machine and most importantly a good 2" x 72" belt grinder just to name the basics. Can it be done for less, sure it can, check out the late Wayne Goddard's book called the "$50 Knife Shop". The problem that raises it's ugly head here however is the fact it'll take you far longer to make a knife without the proper equipment than it will with the proper equipment. Thus you're far more likely to get burned out and call it quits. Where if you had the proper machines/equipment you'd enjoy it and continue to succeed.
