I was able to pick up some of his knives today. Really nice experience and great knives, thanks Robert. I'll post photos later. His knives are high quality and priced very well for the quality.

Tim, glad you like the Pocket Cleavers. I really liked that piece of redwood that I used on the one you posted. Great seeing you again.

Rick, thanks for taking that picture of my dad (free labor) and I. Saving that one for sure. Good to see you again, and congratulations again on the Guild.
