Headsup! - Trackrock Hammer-in, Fall 2009
Not trying to glaze over the Summer Guild Meeting - always a great time at Little Brother's.
Yeah, probably be a little forging in the mix somewhere so don't miss it. Bring your purty knives......the press will be in attendance (I hear). Trackrock Hammer-in will be the weekend of September 25, 26. Formal announcement with details will be coming forthwith (once I get home from my travels). __________________ 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 |
