Will spend more time viewing the story but it is late now 3:10 AM. Did register though. Ted was an early supporter of the CKCC and I enjoyed chatting with your Mom and Dad when I would see them at Guild shows. Will get the image of my hunter and send it. It is on my site in my sig file here also under hunters. Site is bookmarked.

Great site. I too will look at it more in detail in the coming days. I had the pleasure of meeting your late father several times over my past 35 years of attending shows.
Ted was a huge inspiration to Chris Reeve and definitely contributed to Chris's own integral one piece knives.
I wish you and your Mom everything of the best.

Wow! You spend a lot of time clearly detailing your father's work. The site is SUPER clean and easy to navigate. Lot of great info.
Suggestion: I have pointed this out for years to makers on their websites. The relationship to a maker's knife work is secondary to the MAKER themselves. I would suggest a proud, smiling photo of your Dad on the home page, as well as a small composite image of a grouping of his knives. OR just him.
I had to click a handful of history links before I saw the GREAT Ted Dowell's face.
Good work.
