Templates for Newbies
Most of us start by scratching a shape down a piece of steel and going for it. I have slowly been creating vector graphics and uploading templates which could allow a newbie to make a proper reusable template and go into production.
They are free to use. One page will print a bunch of sizes. Feel free to add your own artistic touch. My blog page has links to them here:
http://dcknives.blogspot.ca/p/knife-profiles.html
Hopefully some of us starting out can find a use for these.

Awesome! Thank you very much! It will also be nice as I make "Thank you" knives for the folks that have helped me along the path! I can use these as a starting point when I ask them "What knife would you like?" Thanks again!

Love your templates and web site. I think I will try your kiln design as well. Thanks from the newbie that is trying to get his first blade done.
