    "Rambling is an affliction of the elderly. Or, so I'm told. I 'spose it beats the alternatives?"

     

    LOL! Some days I think I'm not far off from sitting and drooling, which, I guess, beats the alternative too! Except now that I'm into carbon steel knives I can't drool on them!

    Hey Ron,

    Saw your comments on my work. Thanks. In answer to your question some knives take between three to five hours, depending on how far I go with them. Many knives nowadays I file both sides of the spring, kicks and liners. As with all things you do learn litle things that make things go faster. my prices run 35 to 75 which makes my work very marketable. I am always busy, but give a lot of knives away to friends and family. have met so many nice people in the knifething, very rewarding. THANKS AGAIN  TOM

    Thanks for the congrats Ron.  I spent the day going to church and doing chores (a person is not supposed to work on Sunday, right?).  How about you?  What have you been up to?  I would like to know more about you.  Sometime tell me about your favorite knives.
