Follow this tutorial for this cute canapé knife

"This week's challenge was to reuse something you would usually throw away....which gave me the perfect excuse to use some old wine corks I'd been saving.

I had several old canapé knives that had torn up and faded handles. I was planning on ditching them too.

Instead, I took a mallet to one of them and cracked the rest of the handle off."

 



Next, I pried the little bits from the edge using some pliers.




Once I got it clean, this little round part just slipped off...and conveniently left a little half inch tip.




I made a slit in the end of the cork and then simply shoved the little tip end into it. The beauty of cork is that it closes back on itself.
The fit was super tight so I decided not to use anything to hold it in place. I can always add it later if I need it.




The first one turned out so well, that I went ahead and made the rest of them...all 6!
