ABS Journeyman Smith Knife of the Year 2012

[Karl B. Andersen]

I was honored to be chosen two years ago to make the American Bladesmith Society Journeyman Smith "Knife of the Year" for 2012 to be auctioned at the annual Blade Show held in Atlanta this coming June.
And the sheath was made by my friend, sheath maker and leather smith, Scott Teaschner of Cody, Wyoming.

(Scott will be at my table this June along with quite a display of his sheath work he will be doing for me.)
