Well I started making knives in January of this year but I've been into knives for a while. I've always admired the work and thought out into knives and just the true craftsmanship it takes to build some of them. So I thought hey why not try it myself? So I built a knife and I found myself in the shop for countless hours grinding away. What ended up happening is I did the right thing and did the buy once cry once (for my budget) and got a kmg. I knew the hobby was expensive but it sure is fun but it can be frustrating at times. I like fixed blades but folding knives interested me just all the work and the way they look and all the different designs you can do is just amazing. Well here I am 6 months later about to get parts cut out for folders. I have all the materials and tools. I'm willing to take advice. I couldn't get the picture posted but there's and earlier drawing of mine on Instagram my ig name is carteriskool ( I know the name sucks)
