Hey Thanks Geo.
I should look again at John White. You think theres family resemblance? I wonder if he is the one Mom left on that doorstep.:D
 
Congratulations to Bruce Bump, Ray Richard, John White on doing some of the finest work I've seen in the book for a long time now. Absolutely top notch workmanship. And by the way there John I like the hat, you look distinguish with it. Thanks IG for posting this note. I been so busy in the shop lately and have not had time to look it over. -----------:thumbup:

I sure am pretty. I think its time for a stunt double. Bruce, I wish they would have used your picture for me. Bruce, John White looks like you will look in another 10 years. BTW Bruce where is your cowboy hat? I thought the hat came automatically with becoming a mastersmith.

Here's a copy of that page a friend sent me. Now I'll have to buy the magazine.

Hey Bruce if you would just grow a beard to match that white mustache, I am sure someone at one of the department stores would give you a set down job this Christmas. The Damascus steel and handle is killing me :D
 
Great writeup guys. Hey Bruce talk about feather pattern, very nice. Congratulations BladeHandmade awards, COOL
 
John and I have completely different ear lobes. Cant you all see that? Although my dad had lobes just like that, hmmm

Thanks for the compliments on my knife.
 
Hey guys,

I'm proud to be on the same page with Bruce and Ray, two guys who's work I admire so.

Bruce, if I'm the one who got left on the doorstep, does that mean I can come up and live in the spare bedroom and watch while you build those incredible knife/guns?

Thanks Chuck, this pattern was destined to be cut down the middle but I had so many failed cuts I decided to leave it uncut. I kinda like it this way.

You deserve it! If for nothing else you keep all of us busy aspiring to make the BIGS!

Congratulations guys! Beautiful knives, every one. I'll second that you're all too modest about your superb work. ;) This makes me glad I finally resubscribed to Blade. But I think I better go track this issue down before it's gone. Thanks for the heads up IG!
