I couldn't find another place to say hello, so please move this post if I goofed. I made a few knives 30+ years ago. No blades, just handles. I really never considered myself a knife-maker.
I am closing my studio of 28 years and moving everything home. Much of the equipment can be cross purposed for knife making. I have a blade design in mind. I have ordered 1084 and 1095 annealed steel. I have a pattern in mind for a 10" knife. And...I need the name of a good twelve step program...I'm addicted.
Now if I could only get this computer and interwebby thing down, I would be set to go...
At my young age, I won't have time to develop the skills I want to have, so I am going to a master. I will be taking the August class with Gill Hibben.
This seems to be a great, friendly place and I look forward to gleaning much information...and contributing what I can.
