I generally don't sell my knives but donate most of them to charities. I've been blacksmithing/forging for over 20 years. This summer I've had a hard time being enthusiastic about forging any knives until I started teaching some basic blacksmithing/forging to a group of young people. It started when my audiologist (I'm deaf without my cochlear implant and regular hearing aid in the other ear) was telling me how she and her husband decided to be boy scout leaders as no one else was stepping up to the plate to help these young boys. So, I decided to teach these young boys about forging and safety in making a very basic knife...tippit

Amazing as always. I am fortunate to have a knife and a broad head made by you.

Thanks Randy,
This past winter I spent time in my forge teaching 10 people how to forge their own knives. This was great fun for me.
