    That's genius! Seen it done so many times before but kept forgetting it. I have loads of those blades kicking around from a saw I bought ages ago, and been wanting a small carving knife for a while, so this looks like my next personal project.

    How do you set the blades in the handles?

    Do you just cut a slot in the handle then? or do you have a way of putting a slot in the middle?
