One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time I finished a knife. 2009 - a trip with a few metal working friends from my school. we drove from Ohio to Wyoming, did a 5 day knife making workshop with 2 master bladesmiths, then went to yellowstone and camped out for 3 days. It was thoroughly wonderful and I knew I wanted to know more about knife making.
