Hello from Nebraska

My name is Tell Deatrich and I am from south west Nebraska. I learned to make knives from a retired shop teacher who is a great mentor. I am just starting out in the world of knife making, but have managed to sell a few here and there. I am trying new things and attempting to make something unique that no one else does, if that is possible at all. Folders are starting to be interesting to me.

I really enjoy putting filework on a knife. My dad and I have a small shop with a Bridgeport Mill and a smaller Logan Lathe, so machining and making parts/tools is possible, though I have never had any serious schooling with any of it. I hope to have something worth posting in the next year or so. I have learned a lot from the WIP's and would like to do one to get my own process critiqued.
