There are several brands of cheap under $10 birds beak peelers that are being incorporated as Pikal blades. Victorinox and Zwilling among the best. These are then bound with bank line to improve the grip and the looks. From looking around I have also found a $50 model with a full tang that I am going to remove the timber grips and grind out the rear divet on the back of the spine before attempting to do a Japanese style braid. I don’t believe anyone has tried this with a full tang before.

Trainers are also available. I’m purposely not putting links on where to purchase blades, sheaths or how to make.
