A new year is rising and I'm bound and determined to make it the best year ever!! Nothing is more exciting to me then this time of year, Thanksgiving, my birthday
, Christmas then finally the New Year... Seems every New Year we all start out with a little spark in us to make it a great one, this new year try to turn that spark into a wild fire...
Most of you reading this are probably thinking...., "why is he posting this here"??.... Well I was in a horrific accident in October and have had a lot of time to reflect on things and in that time I've thought about knife making and what brought me to it.. I've admired Bills work the first time I seen it here in the Exchange, there are a lot of great makers but his presentation just grabbed me.. The beautiful exotic handles, mosaic pins, damascus and lets not forget the hamons, all of which were tastefully done. While my work in no way compares to his, its his style that pushed me over the edge. Though Bill has no idea it was his work that played a role, I figured there was no time like the present to let him know..
Thanks Bill and Happy New Year Everyone!!!
take care,
Rob
