Don's been famous for a long time, the public just didn't know it.
Thanks for posting. That's a nice article about a super nice guy. Cheers, Don.

Thanks, my friends.

One of my local friends says I've always been famous in my own mind.

Since that article came out last year I've been swamped with orders for my little barlow linerlocks, and they've bought nearly everything else I had. I had to work really hard to have knives on my table at the SOS show.

I wish all of you would come down (far down) for our local club's knife show next month.

You might meet Famous Don!!

Alex, you'll have to do the speaking for me too.

I'm so old I can't remember anything. I'd probably forget who I am.
