Title: JS presentation knives
Post by: bjansen on February 08, 2022, 08:57:28 AM

A pro photo of my 2021 JS presentation knives.  I tested in Atlanta along with Thad Stager (who I met on Trad Gang many years ago). We went through this JS process together and it was a great experience.

That's a great set of knives. (And I've seen a few!)
You provided exactly what was needed.
I was over in the Master Smith room..................failing.
Funny how there have been quite a few ABS rated "smiths" come through Trad Gang - me, Doug Campbell, Lin Rhea, and I'm sure there are a few more whose names escape me right now.
Congratulations. :clapper:

Thank you all - the Trad Gang knife forum is what got me in to all this stuff along with meeting others on this forum who were in a similar spot in the learning curve as me.

Hi Jeff, yes they were presented in June 2021 - right along side my buddy Thad Stager.  Thad won the Joe Keesler award that day for best JS knife presented!
