Recent knife purchase
« on: August 04, 2013, 05:49:00 PM »
Chuck Ward is a name you might recognize as a photographer. He has photographed our St Jude's knives here on TG. You might not know that he has made some fine knives before his camera skills sapped his time. I have wanted one of his knives for a while. I heard that there was one on an online auction he made in the 1980's and I got it and am very happy I did. The blade is about 3 inches and I think the wood is Walnut.

Very nice Lin. Seeing this makes it obvious to me that Chuck has been in the knife world for quite a while, and in various ways.

Thanks for sharing.

Wow! Ol' Chuck!
That's fantastic.
Lin, one day you're going to have a rather special collection.
And I hope I get to see it.

Man of many talents, congrats Lin.
That blade looks to be hollow ground? and very well done.
