Winter Meeting & Grinders
I must say that Saturday's winter meeting was most informative. I am new to this forum and yesterday was my first visit to a Guild event. (The Georgia Knife Maker's Association) I was most impressed and in awe of the beautiful knives. I am humbled by such talent. I hope to be at that level one day soon. \
In addition, everyone I spoke with was courteous and patient with my persistent questions. The lone knife I brought was critiqued and such criticism was done in such a manner that was not condescending. I felt as if those offering help their input did care enough to give me some very good pointers. I appreciate this much. As a beginning knife maker I am looking for my own 2x72 belt grinder. If any of you have a used grinder that you would like to sale and pass on that would be great. If not, I will continue my search. My funds are somewhat limited but I am in the market. |

It was good meeting you Cliff. Stick around this bunch and you can learn a lot. That's about as much talent in one place at one time as you can get anywhere (I'm always amazed that they let me even come to the meetings).
If I can ever be of any help don't hesitate to give me a yell. (You could have my grinder if I didn't need it for shaping handles.) __________________ Carl Rechsteiner, Bladesmith Georgia Custom Knifemakers Guild, Charter Member Knifemakers Guild, voting member Registered Master Artist - GA Council for the Arts C Rex Custom Knives Blade Show Table 6-H |
