Hey, does it count if I've spent a lot of money on Victory Drive???? :D

I live 82 miles from Benning, Wetumpka, AL.

Are y'all going to allow non Georgians, more specifically Alabama Fans into y'alls group? :confused:

You'd think we could start our own group in Bama, reckon since none of us can read, rite or sypher, we ain't gonna be able to start nuthin. 8o

Hi Will,

We are in the planning and decision process right now of what we want a Georgia Knifemaker's Guild to look like.

Send me an e-mail ( john@poythresscustomknives.com ) and I will keep you posted on what gets settled at our meeting in February.

Thanks for checking in with us.

Carl,

Thanks... I enjoyed the day at TrackRock! Such a nice place and gorgeous day. So much to see and nice people to talk with. I wanted to talk with you more but, you were always so busy with that hammer. You were just having too much fun. Anyway, let me know when you have some free time and we can get together.

Jay

Jay,
It's going to take me a while to get everything back in it's proper place (and for me to unkink and unwind). You wouldn't think you could get that much in a little Nissan PU, plus Gouge has a bad habit of sneaking extra stuff in there when I'm not looking.
Yeah, just short of hectic, but I love it! Having trouble making a fist with either hand right now...heh, heh, heh. It's a pretty good feeling to walk someone through forging their first blade and be able to send them home with a finished or near finished knife. I have two local fellas that are coming over sometime soon to do a little more and learn some advanced techniques. It's an addiction for sure.
I plan to get back up and visit with Sandy soon, as these Trackrock events don't let me visit with my good friend as much as I'd like. What a good man and such an ambassador to the trades. He knows more folks and puts them together better than anyone I know.
I'd enjoy a little more "quiet" time and conservation, so let's do it. Give me a call some evening.

Can I be an honorary Georgian?

Mark

Sure you can Mark..... Just move to Georgia.
Let me know if I can help.

Jay

Why not? You're honery everywhere else! Ha, ha, ha, ha!
It's simple to resolve, you know.
Not that far along in the charter and bylaws to say just yet, but you know how I'd vote.

Thanks Jay,

9 acres and a simple house with a 60 x 100 shop would do nicely.
And buy it for me in the mountains. Murphy, Blairsville,Blue Ridge,Young Harris, any one will be fine.


Crex, Now you know I aint never honery. Hey I was born I Gainesville does that count?

Thanks

OK...Sounds good. Let me see what I can do for you.
Jay

I look forward to our next meeting.....

Mrs. Joan....I keep forgetting to come down here and take a look......count me in on the roll call.
