Hello community! I live in Arkansas and have pastor friend that has been making knives for a few years. He is getting quite good at it. I am very interested and have started the collecting of knowledge and "pieces" to start. I have got the book about the 50 dollar knife and am learning all I can before I start. Thanks for letting me join! I have done woodwork for a number of years, esp. with the lathe and exotic woods. I love working with them and hope to put both "arts" together.
