J.S.Hill - anybody know him?

I was asked about a Japanese blade forged by J.S.Hill of Rock Spring, GA. I can't find anything about him. Anybody heard of him?

Stacy, he's a member at SFI with a fair amount of posts, you might try asking around over there. He's posted there recently and he goes by Shannon if that helps find him.

Thanks, I haven't been over there in a while.

I have a small tanto he made. AS is right Stacy try over on SFI.

Sam, what do his tanto blades run?

Not sure offhand, I got mine in a trade, only in the very early stages of polish also. I think I have his email here somewhere if you want.

Yes, if you can find it, I would like to contact him.
Someone wants me to finish a tanto forged by J.S.Hill. They seem to believe it is a superb blade of unequaled quality. It may be, but I couldn't find anything about him.
