Northeast MS

Hi. I'm retired soldier and I'm tinkering with making knives. I have done flint knapping and paleo designs in the past. I'm trying to figure out some of the mysteries of working with steel. If there is anyone in the area that wouldn't mind showing someone the ropes, I'd love to get together.

I am at the opposite corner of the state from you but I would be happy to get together if you are ever in my area or if I am anywhere near you. How far are you from Memphis? I get up there from time to time.
Tony

I'm in north Alabama, Athens area, I'd be glad to show you what I know...

An earlier thread on this subject:
http://www.knifenetwork.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=19584

A google search on "mississippi knives' turned up quite a few makers.
