I saw somewhere about making a Jig saw blade into a knife for use in a mini kit. Since I don't have any steel or anything else except a Belt Grinder (Thanks to Camp 10). Impatient ole me had to give it a shot,with a saw blade I found laying in my shop. But I now have something to tuck away just in case.

It is 4" OAL with 3" BL.
Can't wait 'til I get the rest of the stuff I need. I did better than I thought I would. I think it will be easier working with a larger piece of steel.
I was EXTRA careful after I read Camp 10 's reminder to be safe. Thanks Camp 10!! It ain't much, but it is a start. Oh and since it was meant to be tucked away in a mini kit, I didn't worry about it being pretty,just functional.
