[TheForge] Rivet Set

[Dan Tull]

Now you are thinking like a blacksmith.
Drill a little dimple first as the bearing isn't going to stay there long.
Might as well use three or four popular sizes while you're at it.

Thanks for the advice. I'll make one by pounding a ball bearing or maybe
a rivet head into a piece of hot metal.

I have a few knives that I'd like to finish and I'd like to use some
round-head or truss-head rivets to attach the handles to the blades.
I'll probably use 1/8" or 3/16" rivets. 

Does any one know here to get a rivet set for round or truss-head
rivets?
