Lin Rhea/Knives Illustrated

Our fellow Knifemaker - Lin Rhea - just had a really nice article on him in Knives Illustrated.
Way to go, Lin!
We're in good company with you around.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.
Chief Joseph

Good for you Lin!  :clapper:   As a rookie in the knife making field, it's great to know I am sharing my hobby with experts on this forum.  Kinda like playing a pick-up game with Micheal Jordan, or hunting with Maurice and Will,  Or tossing the pigskin around with a Manning.  Thanks!

Congratulations, Sir!

It is the April 08 issue of Knives Illustrated.

Thanks guys.

  It's pretty exciting to get a little recognition for something you've worked hard at. I have been fortunate and know it. The real honor is to get to know B. R, Hughes (writer). Karl, you probably have met him.
      I did notice that there was a problem in the printing of the article, but that's not Mr Hughes' fault. I should see him next week and will have him sign my copy.
        Thanks again, Lin

Good for you, way to go!
What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.

Thanks fellas.

 I've been kind of busy for a couple of days and hav'nt posted much. I'm working on a big project for an upcoming show and it's taking some time. I'll probably be hand sanding most of the day. 12 inch Bowie blade with brass on the spine. It's a booger.

  I'm hoping to show some hunting knives before too long.
