Larry H Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Just returned from the Peters Valley meet ( on the east coast ) There was a lot of talent in a small area today. A great demo by Sam Salvati on japanese kitchen knives and Director Richard Sargent on tooling for joinery, ( sorry Doc, I had to cut out, lucky I made it at all ) Sorry some of you close couldn't make it.
