I'm finally getting around to making a marking knife. I cut the blade from an old hand saw and I've glued it between two thin pieces of wood. My plan was then to use a spokeshave to shape the handle into something comfortable since I don't have a Lathe yet.
My problem is, since it's small i can't find a way to clamp it so it won't move, yet have enough stick out that i can get the spoke shave around the corners. Does anyone have any ideas?
I now know for the future to leave the stuff extra long and cut once the majority has been shaped.
