Fiddleback Friday - 07/25/14

[Bamboo]

Andy’s note - I love making knives for you all. Thanks to everyone for supporting Fiddleback Forge. It’s an amazing feeling to do this for a living. Fiddleback Forge depends on y’all, and we hope you love the tool you buy from us.

This time next week Andy and I will be up in Lousiville, KY for the Knifemaker’s Guild Show. We’ll have the Friday thread here as usual, posting it up from the show floor. In the evening we’ll be trying to find the ghost (the Lady in Blue) that is said to inhabit the Seelbach Hotel….
