Just wanted to drop in and say hello! I have been very busy lately with work and life, and am also in the process of building a shop behind my house. I have not been on the forum in a while, but rest assured I still think about you guys often. I have not made another knife since I did the slip joint WIP, but I have several blanks ready to go. I also have several different handle materials to work with. I also have the 4 blanks of damascus a few of us got from pakistan (I think that was where we got it from). I'm looking forward to picking back up on it soon.
Once the shop is completed, I will be moving all of my knife making stuff out there to better facilitate making them. It is about 80% complete. All I have left to do is exterior siding and wiring. I'm at a standstill on the wiring at the moment because I live inside the city limits and they won't let me wire it. I have to pay a licensed electrician to come in and do the work, and I'm trying to find ways around that. I did not budget for that kind of cost. Building depts..
I will be attending blade in Atlanta this year. I made the trip last year, but unfortunately I didn't get to see but about 15 minutes of the show.
Looks like you guys haven't missed a beat
