Hello,

I've recently decided that I'd like to experiment with straights and found this place. I see there is lots of info to study on and have been doing so for a week or so now. However, since I posted today, I thought it appropriate to introduce myself.

I used to hang out at Spyderco's factory forums under the same screen name, and for some time took up making lanyards and fobs out of parachute cord, as well as an affinity for hawkbill blades for EDC.

I am also into shooting, and have been actively involved in the open carry movement for the last few years.

I look forward to learning a lot here (especially getting an edge) and hope to eventually contribute.

Thank you,

ghostrider
