Joshua States Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I just went through the album and I cannot thank you enough for putting that together. It answered soooo many questions I had about the construction process. “So I'm lightin' out for the territory, ahead of the scared and the weak and the mean spirited, because Aunt Sally is fixin’ to adopt me and civilize me, and I can't stand it. I've been there before.” The only bad experience is the one from which you learn nothing.

Doug Lester Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I can't get over your carving skills. Great knives. Are you presenting them as a set? Doug HELP...I'm a twenty year old trapped in the body of an old man!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Colwell Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 damn Jake, that looks like the stuff Vince Evans used to turn out. That is about the highest compliment I can give for that sort of set. please visit my website http://www.professorsforge.com/ “Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth. I said then and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; while there is a criminal element, I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.” E. V.
