Drill/Drill press

Drill bit that is the same size as the nails that you are using

Although knives have been used on the earth since historical times, it is only recently that humans began to customize them for specific purposes. Knives can serve you in the kitchen; you can also customize a pocket knife for yourself. Some other knives you can customize on your own include hunting knife, survival knife, steak knife, and butter knife to mention a few.

The fact that business owners allow their clients the option to customize knives according to their individual needs does not mean everyone will want to purchase a folding quarter knife from a store when they can easily make one following simple DIY instructions.

Knowing how to make your own folding quarter knife is an excellent way to kill time but yet create a personalized tool that can serve you for years to come.
