Yes, you can!
First attempt, and it is actually only about half done. Have not decided what to do with the blade as far as polishing or leaving the current sand blasted finish. The edge is just mildly sharp thus far via a belt sander. Handle could still use a little bit of work, but I'm not sure I will continue to fuss over it, as I am not entirely happy with the shape of the blade. The goal of this knife was really just for me to establish the fundamentals of the process. I will likely make another in the very near future. Comments, suggestions, and even criticism welcome.

Second attempt at knife making. Am I improving?
