Newt was at the Wannamakers Show in Tulsa. His son-in-law? Darrell Parent is making a lot of his patterns . CHECK www.mtsequoyahknives.com

You oughta look in GB&U regarding your question. And, I am sure that a Moderator will be along shortly and move this thread there.

Anybody here in his good graces and in current contact with him?

Judging by his past history on TGBU it is amusing to wonder about anybody here being in his good graces.

To give the short version, I seem to recall that a holster Newt was making for the .22 NAA Mini Revolver (an inverted holster that points the barrel of the weapon up) becamse a point of contention online, and in the midst of all the back and forth about that, Newt abruptly took down his website and retired, or said he was retiring. Oh, wait, come to think of it, I think he had some kind of advertising deal with the owner of the forum, and then was banned by one of the forum's moderators, and that touched off some kind of feud. I can't recall all the details, it seems so silly.

there was something about his equipment being stolen, then his son in law was supposed to fill his outstanding orders, then it sorta went silent
