A couple of years ago, I hosted a couple of friends for dinner at my private residence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group consisted mainly of farmers and winemakers, most of whom had inherited the business from their parents just like I did mine. I hinted at one of them John, of my plans to dispose of my old diamond saw machines and he burst into very throaty laughter telling me that there were other uses for my diamond saw blade aside from eliminating them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He showed me how to make blades from my old blades, a valuable lesson, which I\u2019m about to teach you in this article.

Section 1:Types of Diamond Saw Blade<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n

A diamond saw<\/a> blade is a compelling piece of equipment, but just like any other power equipment, it cannot be in active use forever. It can last as long as any other service equipment but is also prone to wear and tear and will no longer be of any use in cutting through the hardest substances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The diamond blade has diamonds fitted on its edge for cutting through solid or harsh substances. You can use a diamond saw blade in numerous capacities, some of which include; cutting through concrete, stones, bricks<\/a>, asphalt, and many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A diamond saw blade is one of the most popular tools in the diamond market, especially in the construction industry as a whole. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are three essential types of the diamond saw blade, which are the circular saw blade; the diamond gang saw blade and the diamond band<\/a> saw blade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the circular diamond saw blade is the most widely used type, the diamond gang saw blade and the diamond band saw blade equally enjoy extensive usage among diamond saw suppliers, construction workers, and even for personal consumption. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They enjoy widespread usage as a result of the fact that each diamond saw type design hinges on different custom uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is incredibly easy to fashion out a shiv from your old, and unused diamond saw blade. Blades from a diamond saw are from soft steel<\/a> as opposed to the general hard steel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using soft steel to craft your knife will cut down the whole manufacturing process by two or more steps as you no longer have to file your iron until it’s ready for use in the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making a knife out of your old saw blade helps you to solve a severe recycling problem. Instead of condemning your equipment to the junkyard, you can quickly deploy it to use in other vital endeavors such as carving a knife out of its blades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many different kinds of the knife in the world today, and it is up to you to define the type you\u2019d like to model yours after if at all you desire to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also very possible to customize your knife models that no one has attempted before, as long as you have the skills required to be outstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n

Section 3: Making blades – the materials you need to prepare<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n

The materials needed to give you a very impressive knife are usually readily available in your immediate surrounding, and it makes it quite easy to fashion a shiv from start to finish with materials from your kitchen or store. Some of these materials include;
\u25cf Bench grinder<\/p>\n\n\n\n
