Hi Jerry and Rob. I'm glad to see that there is a new forum that will be of use to makers that have progressed past the basic questions. Please don't get me wrong, everyone has to start someplace, all of us did, but it seems that the same questions are being asked over and over on some of the forums. There are times that I don't log in if I see the same questions asked everytime you go to the site. Hope I didn't step on any toes, just offering my opinion.

Hi Tom, I glad you joined us. As you correctly observe, there's a whole lot to knifemaking that is well beyond the basics.
