Here's a knife I made a couple of years ago
The blade is Stellite.Very hard to work with. 
I made it from this.

It holds it's edge really well .The hardest part was to make the turbine wing look like a knife. The material is very difficult to work with. 
When you cast something in Stellite you make sure it's very close the the end result. I had to grind the turbine wing to make it look like a knife.

I'll bet it'll be fun to sharpen ... if you ever have to sharpen it.
