Nice when you can turn a hobby into a business, and a fun business

Its a nice looking blade. I bought my Pop and BiL a nice custom hunting sheath knife a few years back and very impressed. Guy was from Al. and he made his own blade/metal. He didn't just sharpen a blank and put a handle on it (which is what you normally see around here).

Again Thats a fine looking blade. There is another bladesmith here, maybe he'll drop by and see the thread.
