Thanks everybody!

Fun it is not, but I find the creation process very rewarding, it was something that was missing from my life for a while.

We live in fascinating times, just like I learned fly fishing and specifically casting in a vacuum with the help of the Board, the www opened knife-making for me.

I clearly remember in 2006 I mentioned to somebody how badly I wanted to learn about making knives. I was obviously online by then, but I lacked bandwidth for youtube etc, and at that stage the fishing was an absolute obsession.....

We can do or learn just about anything these days..... :cool:

We’ve now moved on and have stopped using rods and fly lines are optional but nobody teaches you to breathe in a vacuum :D

Sure is, the real masters have even moved on to imaginary fish.
