Good beginning friend
What kind of steel did you use - any tempering done - if so how did you do it?
All the best for the next steps....
Eager to see the progress

Dear Briha sir,
I've started off with grade 304 steel as of now..used plasma cutting,followed by grinding and buffing ,thanks to a workshop nearby. Its a tempered steel but is lesser resistant to seawater than 316 steel.

Hi all, I've enclosed a template for making the Karambit, the side two pieces being the design for the handle. Hope its useful.
