Not too long ago there was a thread titled "this guy's gonna get what he deserves". It was about a maker who compensated someone for a generous act with a knife he made...
This is just such a situation-About a year ago I ran into a fellow knife maker who was getting out of the biz and wanted to unload a Wilton square wheel for peanuts-naturally I jumped on the offer and the deal was done.When I arrived at his house to finish the transaction he insisted on getting rid of the rest of the stuff that he wouldn't ever use again.Well,I insisted on paying for the rest of the tools,but he would hear nothing of it.
Sooooo- I decided to make him a knife-and he being predominantly a folder guy,I thought I'd make him a big fixed blade
