Hello everyone,
I'm a knifemaker but havent done it for quit a few years but I plan on starting again but just as a hobby.
Sorry for the poor quality of the pic but it's a scaner .jpg image. I am hopeing to correct this in the near future.
It's the only knife I have left and it's my personal knife.

As I progress through the months getting back the tools and materials I need for knife makeing I will update my "Becomeing a Knifemaker(Our Journey)"page in the link bar upper left just under "Home".That way we can make this journey together if you need to.Or you can venture out on your own if I'm to slow. 

This time I am going to venture into makeing Folders.It will be more challenging but more fun and more satisfying. That is not to say that I will not make fixed blades also because I will. I think I will restrict myselfe to Bird and Trout designes just because thats what I like.And as a knifemaker we should always make what we like.It is more fullfilling than just makeing money.

I will be liveing in an appartment this time around.So for you who might want to make knives and dont think you have the room or it might be to messy or noise I will keep posting the pro's and con's and let you all know How I make out in this adventure.

I will be posting LINKS to knife forums and sources as I go along.That in itself might help you if you are thinking of making handmade knives.

So long for now and may God bless you. Paul D. Demaske Sr.
