The Large Knife Blade is a forged knife blade without a handle. It is a Blacksmithing part that becomes a Large Knife once a handle is fitted.
The Assemble Bladed Item recipe joins it to a Small Handle. The blade can also be reforged into a Long Simple Metal Blade. A worn blade can be sharpened, and a spare one can be melted for iron.
The blade is forged from half an iron or steel bar at Blacksmithing level 4. Taking apart a Large Knife with Dismantle Bladed Item also gives one back. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Assemble Bladed Item is the main use. It takes the blade and one Small Handle. A hammer, club hammer or mallet is kept. It needs Maintenance level 1 and gives a Large Knife.
Forge Long Simple Blade reworks the blade into a Long Simple Metal Blade. It takes two pieces of charcoal at a Primitive Forge or better. A hammer and pliers or tongs are kept. It needs Blacksmithing level 3.
The blade counts as a medium iron item for smelting. Smelt Iron From Medium Item gives two Iron Chunk in a furnace. Smelt Steel From Medium Iron Item gives two Steel Chunk in an Advanced Furnace.
The three Sharpen Blade recipes restore its edge with a whetstone, a file or a Grindstone.
Research Craft on the blade teaches several forging recipes. These are Forge Hunting Knife Blade, Forge Large Knife Blade, Forge Simple Blade, Forge Small Knife and Forge Fleshing Tool.
How to Get Large Knife Blade

Dismantle Bladed Item takes a Large Knife apart. It returns the Large Knife Blade with a hammer, club hammer or mallet.
