    I am a guy from the city of Sofia, Bulgaria. (currently 33 years old)
    I fell in love with knifemaking two years ago after watching counteless hours of YouTube videos and have been making knives ever since. I have been keeping most of the stuff for myself, but i wish to know, what others think of my work and give me guidness...

    Sinceyarly,
    Nikola Rusev

    Your knives look well made and nicely done....I enjoy the lines of the first piece and the tapered-tang. :)

    That first knife really shows some very imagination, and great style. Great work. I would love to see more shots of that first knife.

    Поздрави. Живял съм в българия от 1996 до 1998 години. В София само 3 месеца.

    Винаги ме е радвал да се видим производител на ножове, от България.

    Welcome to our corner of the internet!

    I probably used a few incorrect words above.... but it has been 20 years, and not much opportunity to speak the language to many people!!!
