Re: Make your own Athame
Wooden blocks work just fine. I use a set of pine blocks while I'm fitting the grip furniture on the swords I make. Pine is nice and soft so it grips well and conforms to midribs, fullers, or even just the typical diamond cross section found on many blades.
I really do like the rubber idea though. Depending on the type of rubber it probably works even better than wooden blocks.
