New member introduction....
Hello Knife Network. My name is Brandon, and I would Iike to say hello to you guys and gals. I've got a few knives here at home and every time I "promise" myself that "this will be the last knife", I wind up buying more. More... More.
Thanks for hosting this great site.

Enjoy the site Brandon
And Welcome. Part time maker here. I enjoy making knives and doing leather too I found. I see you are more of a collector, but there are some knife kits from many different places if you ever decide to make a custom handled knife for yourself. I am not averse to making a good quality kit knife and have a few sitting around. Usually big Chef's knives as I had limited equipment.
It can be addicting making knives and will quickly get expensive if it runs away with you.lol But if all you want to do is make a kit knife or folder, hand tools will be plenty with maybe a cheap drill press thrown in. There are a lot of pictures of nice knives here, some unbelievably artistic. So enjoy all you can. Ask questions as there are collectors here as well as makers, indeed some are both.
