Welcome to Bladeforums Hartski, you came to the right place. There is no official introduction thread, but this thread is used by many new members to say hello. Jump in and post wherever you feel like.Hi all. Just joined the site. Been a blade freak since I was a kid making throwing knives and throwing stars in Dad's machine shop on the farm. Is there an introduction thread, or is this it?
Your post reminded my of my youth, I used to cut throwing stars out of any piece of steel I could find that was large enough (using a hacksaw). The biggest stars I made I cut out of circular saw blades (not easy with a hacksaw), with the hole in the center of the blade becoming the hole in the center of the star. I wish I had kept some of them just for nostalgia sake, but they are illegal here in California and at some point I felt it was better not to have them around. But I kinda wish I had kept them.
And welcome to all of our other new members.
