Wow. That's fantastic. Everybody involved should be proud. You should be proud of the students and their work, and the students should be proud of the instructor and the things he taught them to do. Great work. Congratulations.
Bob

Those are just plain awesome.  Even as a knife maker I want to own one!

Thank you sirs.

I was in an impromptu cutting competition recently using my project knife from the class (pictured above). It was set up in teams with the maker as coach and partner cutting. Team X-Rhea won.    :goldtooth:
