Hey I’m a maker in the Deep South. I’ve been making knives for on and off for about 10 years as I have been acquiring all my equipment. Now that I have a good selection of tools im making new knives on a regular basis I’m really into folding knives because the mechanics of the are really satisfying to me but I do build fix blades on a occasion. I have never been on any type of forum or Facebook or anything so I am new to this but looking forward to interacting with other makers and sharing ideas and learning. I may be young but I am old school at heart I will post a few of my knives as I get a chance I only have 20 or so knives under my belt so far and A lot of them I don’t have pictures of. I welcome all criticism as I feel it makes you strive to do better.
 
Welcome fellow Mississippian!! I'm from the Tupelo area. Where are you? If this is your first forum, you picked the best one! Lots of very talented makers here who love to help. Feel free to ask questions and be sure to post some pics of your work. We love pictures here.
 
Welcome aboard - Lucedale isn't all that far away from Mobile area. You ever get down this way? I'm just across the bay outside Fairhope. If you're ever down this way holler and we'll meet up, OR even better swing by here and we'll visit. Always a pot of coffee, wine, or beer available.

Oh, I especially like that lockback - look good.
