Thank you Stephen for your warm wishes. When I was a kid, Christmas & birthdays seemed like they took forever to get to the next one. Now, they seem to come every 6 months.
Steve, thanks for the birthday wish. They seem to come around a lot faster at this age. By the way, did you get thye info on the knife show? I sent the response with attachments to your home e mail address a few weeks ago.
Thanks for the hello! I have begun to make some knife handles and I am going to start my first knife from scratch using a damascus bar I got. I will eventually post good pics of my collection and the knives I have made. It is hard to find time for it, I am so busy raising my family and workin...
Stephen, it's a small world, for sure. Salem is only about 50 miles south of Portland, and I live in Hillsboro, which is about 15 miles east of Portland. By coincidence, my sister lives in Salem, but works at a recycling plant located north of Salem. Want to know another funny coincidence? Your sister's Director of Communication, Andrea Cantu-Schomus, whose maiden name I assume is Cantu, might be somehow related to the mechanic who keeps my Subaru running smoothly, Felix Cantu. (BTW, he's one of the best mechanics I've ever known.) :D
I didn't get to see much of it tonight, but I did get a glimpse of that RR double trapper. It was enticing . I also did see that big Ocoee River sunfish that he showed. I know that the ocoee brand is a Frost brand, but I have seen some of the Schrade knives look exactly like some of them. They are probably made in the same factory.
Stephen, I have watched the Hoppin Mad Hillbilly on the web a couple of times. I haven't really watched him a lot. He won't sell anything made in China. He sells s lot of German and USA made knives along with a few made in Pakistan. I usually watch Knives Live and the Saturday Night Knife and gun show. I haven't seen or bought anything from the hoppin mad hillbilly. I first learned of him on Sharpfans.

Hi Stephen, thanks for the comment on my .44 sp. It is a handfull but I shoot alot and am used to the recoil, however being Titanium it is very light, which is one reason I bought it. You know when it goes off.
Steve, thanks for the like on my skinner. I was not sure how well I would like it until I got it finished. It feels good in hand and I expect I will do a couple more with different handles.
