Hello everybody!

[jack43011]

Well, as the title says, hello everybody! My name is Jack, and I have always been interested in knives and metalwork in general. I am from upstate NY, and still live there today. I currently work security, all sorts of environments from bars, to HUD subsidized high rises to warehouses. My ultimate goal is to eventually get into metal working full time, but I am taking it step by step and trying to absorb as much knowledge as possible. Aside from that, I have always been fascinated by knives, and the different qualities of all sorts of steel as well as other non-ferrous metals, as well as metallurgy in general. I use knives every day for work, and can honestly say they have saved my life from time to time.

That said, I look forward to meeting all of you!

Hi jack43011,

Wow, have you wound up in the right place! Knowledge here is free and there is a well here that just won't run dry. Of course, if beautiful, artful custom knives are a temptation... you are on your own.

Luckily, my wallet does a fairly good job of emptying out before I have a chance to spend it on anything nice. However, I do have a decent collections of knives I have confiscated over the last few years. seems to be growing daily!
