Last fall I bought a box of disposable scalpel blades and wanted a nice wood handle to use them.

Good work on that handle. How long do the scalpel blades last?
Hello,
Great, I hate plastic handles too !
Diyer, you know what, you will say I'm quite stingy, but I always re-sharpen my (normally) disposable blades like Xacto blades or even heavy duty cutter blades. I actually rarely purchase new ones.
Glad I'm not the only one who resharpens scalpel blades Christophe :agree:
Nice work on the handle Wormil :thumbsup:
Regards
Doc :hattip:
That's not stingy, Christophe! That's being frugal, and to me, that is an entirely different (and desirable) trait. I myself repurpose broke hacksaw blades into utility knives. :)
Looks like we are of the same mindset too, Doc!
Love the handle. Looks very comfortable to use.

Hello knife makers!
I am a newbie to this forum. So I am looking for the wood carving knife. I have seen lots of wood carving knife but failed to determine whicj would work fine for a newbie. Please help me with some reviews of wood carving knife.
I searched google and found this https://mechanicguides.com/best-wood-carving-knives/ , but I want to hear the opinions of professional knife makers.
I've only dabbled in wood carving and it was a long time ago. Given that, I would suggest that anything that you can find at Lee Valley...Quote:

will serve you well. Personally, I would avoid knives with replaceable blades; they have a tendency to shift when taking deep cuts.
Some other resources...
