Your photo inspired me to take that knife's damascus sister out to the garage and give it a proper sharpening. The crock sticks have been doing fine but I wanted something a bit shinier
. Oh, it cuts now.
Thanks again, Scott.

Funny you ask Scott, emailed back and forth with him over the last couple of days, all is good in the house of Jared as far as I can tell.

Okay thanks, I was trying to get in touch with him for the last few days via pm and haven't seen him around the BFC interwebs.

Wondered how you did that. Seems like an efficient little tool.
Bet it will do a number on your leathery hands too not like you aren't accustomed to handling sharp knifey things. Ray

Sounds like a great first leg of the Great Road Trip...
Then we all can pile in to Ted's bus, head west, turn right at Albuquerque, set the heading to Cutbank!
Don't forget your towel!
Honk as you enter the Denver metro area on I-25, and pick me up!
Ha! I watched the 2005 Hitchhikers Guide today
Yeah, I watched that recently too. As soon as I saw it come up on Netflix (or was it Amazon?).
Answered your PM Scott, sorry for the delay.
That reminds me, I'm going to go back and give you my email for future reference.Those pics are pretty darn sweet! Love how you laid the wood out so that the grain looks like it's flowing!
Very, very cool!
