I recently helped a friend clean out a garage, and had come across several stainless steel kitchen knives that were borken right at or close to the handle. Leaving a remaining blade of anywere from 6 to 9 inches, being the pack rat that I am I saved some of the wider thicker ones and have started turning them into usable knives.
I traced the pattern on the blade then used a dremel cut off wheel to remove the excess materel then sanded the final contour. I havent decided what I want to make the scales out of yet.
I figure this is a decent use for something that would have been tossed in the trash .here are two of my creations.

One thing there is that all are saying. "My lord lays hands on the family lands of his servants." the nobles turn their backs on you. Plunder he will call it who has to hand over his heritage to a king's officers on some specious pretext.-Sigvat Þórðarson, c. 1035
"No better burden can a man carry on the road than a store of commonsense; better than riches it will seem in an unfamiliar place, such is the resort of the wretched"- Odin, havamal c. unknown

How big is the knife on top? With a little more rounded tip I bet that would make a good skinner for up to med size game depending on how big it is.
Good idea,
