Hoo-Rah!
For the last 5 years, I have started and ended my day here because this is a decent bunch of guys.

(I need a hug....)

To sum up these posts, and to add some flavor of my own, I'll say this... f all the knife forums out there this is the one I call home. Why? Because this group of people represent the embodiment of what knifemaking fellowship must be in order to survive and flourish. A sense of grace and congeniality to the fellow maker. An aire of cooperation. No secrets. Free and open communication between makers, young and old, novice and veteran.

I have seen guys go out of their way to offer help and even materials to
other makers here to help them along their path. I've made some wonderful frends here. I hope they all feel the same way about me.

This IS a great place to be. Mark Williams and I have a dream of a Knifemaker's Utopia. Its a place where a knifemaker can go and, like a monk in a monastery, be totally-immersed in the craft. Well I say this forum is as close to that as we have right now. Maybe some day we'll have a 500-acre ranch out in the middle of nowwhere to forge damascus and make edged things all day. Until then, we have each other, and we have BLADEFORUMS SHOPTALK! CAN I GET A HOO-RAH? :thumbup:

You can get a; well said,

Here's your hug Tracy. Hoo-Rah!

This is usually the beginning and end of my day too, at least I'm getting back into it after a bit of time off. Who knows, I may get back to the grinder again too!
