E'llo Brother Steve,

Here is your Tracking # CW640347571US

https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfi...=CW640347571US

Sent by USPS on 9 May 2014 Sorry for the Delay I had some Dr. Appointments that kept me in Nashville TN. and away from home and the Knife for a few days . I included some (Unusual Handle Material for the Syrup Payment if that is OK ) If Not and you have Pay Pal just let me Know by a PM and I will Promptly send you what you paid for it .

I do hope you are pleased with the knife and the handle material one set of scales is Very Special and Very Very Very Hard to work with However , with your Skill level and Abilities I really think you will enjoy working with it as I do myself .

I did receive your Knife and the Canadian Maple Syrup Man it is Awesome! Just as I had Hoped . I love your Craftsmanship on your Knife as well Very well Done Brother . Superb Fit and Finish I did However, find that I did need to put an edge on it to suit my liking. No need to fret over That though as I am a bit peculiar when it comes to edges on kitchen knives. It only took a few minutes on my Japanese Natural Water Stones 1K through 15K working progressively, I did skip through a few of them and it cuts like an Extreme Razor now.

I can slice through a mater so thin you can read a news paper .

Again, Well Done Brother Steve! Well Done!

Blessings And Best Regards

The next KITH is being discussed now, on the Sunday Chat. We will decide on a theme very soon and the new KITH will probably start in the beginning of June....

Picked up your knife today, haven't had a chance to try it yet, looks good and thanks for the handle material. I will PM you a detailed review once I get the chance to really get a feel for it.
