For this step you have to be carful!!!
Cut off the tops and bottoms of the cans with your exacto knife

Next you simply cut the can down the middle

For this step you want to start cutting the actual knife shape out.
Start by making a cut like this

You have probably noticed that the knife is very flimsy, so what you want to do is hot glue a Popsicle stick to the handle of the knife on each side.
Then cut a Popsicle stick in half and glue it to the top half of the knife and connect the tow with another half Popsicle stick

This handle is made by cutting a piece of leftover can to the same length of the handle and wrapped around then secured with hot glue

Cut a piece of aluminum an long as the blade and glue it around the back of the blade to make the back of the blade dull
