About Me
I started making knives in Feb.08, and have made 17 to date.
I Don't make my own blades yet, but plan to eventually.

I would rather make a few or more Mercedes' than to mass-produce Volkswagons. Nothing against Volkswagon, but I think you know what I mean

I have a big imagination as far as knives I would like to make, but putting those ideas into an actual knife is easier said than done, but I'm learning as I go.

My collection is very small but growing, So far I haven't been able to afford many knives but Chinese, and ones I've made!

Want to know anything else, just ask.
Interests
Knifemaking, Luthier work, woodworking, etc.
Other Hobbies
Tennis, Golf,
Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin, Banjo,
Playing & singing real Gospel Bluegrass,
King James Bible AV 1611

    Thanks for the good words on my knives. The steak knives were a custom order for a client that brokers African Safaris. That set went for $2,200.00 which when you break it down was really a great value.
