Yes, a very talented maker who has quite a few knives in prominent collections.

Kevin,

Adam had some personal problems arise after getting his J.S. in 2006, but the last I heard from him, he was still looking at getting back to his forge at some point in time.

WOW :eek: A Scagel.
Did receiving the Scagel initially get you interested in knife collecting or did you get it after you started?

This is nice as it allows us to understand the specific knife interest and maker preference of our fellow forumites.

It's also interesting how some collections are very focused as to type and maker and others such as Win's are very well rounded, however both philosophies result in Great Collections. :thumbup:
