Great set of knives!! Every one of them came out very nicely.

I am happy this is working out - it was a great time and I know I came away with a new respect for how much work goes into these knives.

Thanks for all of the great pictures!

Nice looking group of knives. That Bocote is especially nice looking.
 
I'm so happy John started these classes, and I was able to be part of it! The class was a blast, and John is an awesome instructor! He's right there if you need his help, but doesn't hover over you.

Now time for the advanced class!

 
Some excellent looking knives! Great job!
