What I used: - An oval shaped nail - A large-ish copper rivet - A Piece of wisteria branch - Solder (for electronics)

Tools: - Spirit Stove (Camping) - Hacksaw - Metal File - Dremel Multi Tool - Electric Drill - Hammer and a solid surface - Vise - Pliers

Method:

The Shape.

I used the spirit stove to heat up the nail. It won’t get it red hot, but will make it easier to flatten the nail out a bit. I kept heating, using the hammer and a solid (metal) surface like an anvil, hit the nail to make it flatter and less oval in shape.

Once I was happy with the basic shape I place the nail in the vice and used a metal file to create a diamond like profile along one half of the nail. I kept the point of the nail intact. The other half I filed into a thin square shaped tang.

The Guard.

I cut the flat head off a copper rivet, found the centre point along it and drilled a small pilot hole. Then made the hole larger to fit the tang to form a guard between the blade and what would become the handle. The hole I cut was a bit too large so I thought about heating the blade and using some solder to keep things in place better.

The Handle

I didn’t really know what to do for the handle. I thought about drilling the middle out of a pencil, but that is way more difficult that it looks and the edges of pencil became too thin and split easily. I had a piece of wisteria branch that I had kept for something, although I wasn't sure what. So, I cut a length off and drilled a hole through the middle. Using a sanding attachment on the Dremel I shaped the wood to make the handle 'better'.
