Sorry to post this again but the original got lost in the software transition before I was able to read it. So...know of any makers working here in Minnesota?
Donald Lange out of Pelican Rapids, MN is an ABS Mastersmith who does some of the most flawless work I have seen at bargain basement prices. Last I heard, he had luekemia and was not taking new orders though.
He does not forge, but Gene Shadley lives up there.

There is a stock removal maker named Chuck Steffen up in St. Michael that does some great mirror polished ATS-34 natural material handled Loveless style knives - just met Chuck last weekend at the Badger Show and was very impressed. Picked up a few pieces for my site but have not got them added on yet.
R. B. Johnson doesn't have a web site that shows his knives. He is "shutter" a non-computer person. He makes great knives. One place his knives can be seen is at knifeart.com
