    Nothing in life is certain except death. I know he was quite ill a few years ago and couldn't make anything, however he recovered and went right back to turning his products out.

    If you have the extra funds, it might be a wise investment to stock up on whatever you might need from him. Just a thought---

    About 5 or 6 years back when I bought from him he also sent me an email asking if I wanted to do his sales in the US. Be his middle man so shipping would be much faster for people. I was so busy back then plus didnt know this guy from Adam so I opted out. Im guessing he never found someone to do that with him.

    Finishing up a knife for an acquaintance, 80CrV2 steel, Gaboon Ebony handle, brass bolsters, mosaic pins and brass lined lanyard hole. Stitched the sheath up tonight ready for wet molding this weekend. Smears on blade are Renaissance wax.
