Handicapped Beginner Needs Constructive Critism

Quadraplegic with limited use of hands.

I've been in a wheelchair 44 years, but in 1999I was devasted by surgeries for an aortic aneurism and a bowel resection. During this period, I thought occupying my mind with an effort at knife making might help me survive. I bought a barebones small Fronteir kit from Janz and went to work with no skill or training.

Hopefully, you can see a half-way decent foto of it without the final polishing of handle or blade. Please send me feedback
IF the link works, you should see a half-way decent foto of my 1st, 90 perent finished knife.​

THANK YOU,

Thanks for the notice. The picture was way too large to load. It should work now. I'm also building a huge new web site and hope to include as many knife and gun enthusiast there as I can. The place is open to any and all ideas, comments, and avocations. For those who want, I can even provide you with a FREE web site for buying, selling, and telling. Right now, It's under construction. The Front door is open though,so at least folks can see what it's all about.
