1/8" Swivel Knife Blade

[Ferg]

Anyone know where I can see/buy an 1/8" swivel knife blade?

I am tempted to take an old filigree blade, grind it to 1/8" and sharpen.

That what I have done a couple of time with limited machinery and tools. Barry King and Leather Wranglers should be able to fill your needs.

Good luck!

Ferg,

Also check with Bob Beard.

Ferg,

I agree with Ben.....your first choice should probably be Bob Beard. He has made several specialty blades for me. They are made of tool steel and are hard enough to chip my concrete floor without damaging the blade....true story! He is one of the few guys who still make shollow ground blades which I happen to love and they are of the highest imaginable quality.

I looked on Bob's site, this is what he has "made up".

I would prefer the blade be 1/8" wide and angled. Some I have seen are straight.
