Had a neat thing happen to me Today!!!!Major update!!!!!!

[David Loukides]

Hi Guy's,
I went for a interview for a Toolmaker position this morning. The interview went very Good.
Then the owner of the company ordered a Knife. This Really made my Day!!!!
The knife is a Stock removal, D2 steel, full tang blade, with Australian York Gum burl scales.
This is a knife I will diffidently make real clean looking.

That's awesome! I'd like to see the finished project.

Good luck with it

Very cool, David! Best of luck with the job and I'm sure the blade will be great!

 

[Battle Creek Knives]

That is cool!! Hope you get the job and your prices reflect it if you dont good luck...

Hahaha! This knife might make or break your tool making career, so it better be good.

JK, I'm sure that just means he likes you, so that's a very auspicious sign. I would celebrate. It's nice to get off to a good start with the big boss, and I'm sure he'll love the knife.

Well you can't make this up.
Got a call from my Present Employer this morning. They laid off 10% of the employees.
I was one of them. The company didn't do well recently and cut's were needed.
Now I am not just looking for a job but I need one.
But I had a good morning of forging this morning which removes stress for me.

Hate to hear that David. Seems to be happening everywhere. My brother-in-law got laid off yesterday after 17 years with the company.

Be patient, keep the faith........ It will work out for the best.

Arg!!
Good luck on the search, Dave! Fingers crossed east of you.
Toolmaker sounds like a good position, given what we see here, that's for sure.

Good luck with getting the new job.

Looks like you might want to get that killer knife done a little sooner than you might have planned.

When you deliver it, that will have to be a first...

"Here's your knife. How's that job opening looking?"

 

[Paul Savage]

Sorry to hear about the layoff David. Recessions over I'm told, hmmm not so sure. Keep the faith and things will surely workout and we"ll be praying on this end.

Good luck Dave! Your knives are the best investments I have made into cutlery, and I always end up wishing I had more of them.
