    "W"s from Walla Walla

    The only way this could've been better would be to wait until the bowie was built... Bruce my heart is pounding having watched that all happen in just a few minutes. What a rush! You are a freakin magician, man. I can't wait to see what happens next. Maybe I'll drop out again for a month or so...

    How About A Bruce Bump Blade Gallery

    Bruce that recurve blade is absolutely breathtaking. You truly are a Master smith. I'm honestly in awe of your whole body of work. There are only a couple of other makers that I can say that about.* I watched a movie the other night (Pathology) whose premise was, 'If you could kill anyone...

    The Newell .45 cal front loader

    Looking at the gun laying there in the last pic -- that's just awesome. Everything about it works just right. I can see where you've cleaned up radii and brought the finish of all the parts together from their various pics. It's really looking fine Bruce. This is so cool. I'm dying to see the...

    The Newell .45 cal front loader

    Man Denny I know what you mean! It's trying hard to get up to double digits here today; it's been below zero for the last few days. We have more snow on the ground than I can remember and I've lived here for 20 years. ('Course, I can't remember all 20 of them very well. ;) Getting up there in...

    Congratulations on that win Bruce! Some very stiff competition, but I do love that OKCA knife above all the others. Drooling over them all or not. ;)

    Bruce - and Mike and Ken and Paul - thank you again for such a heartwarming gift. Seeing the playground is as good a gift and watching you all build the knife. This really warms my heart. Thanks so much.

    The Newell .45 cal front loader

    Yes, that would be the mother of my children. Get it, Mr J McDonald? :D It's a long story, but my avatar actually has to do with my love affair with Uma. But I won't waste Bruce's beautiful thread describing my sordid life... Okay, back on topic - that is one awesome piece of work...

    The Newell .45 cal front loader

    Bruce, I'm watching this with incredible happiness! I just love this stuff. If I could pick anybody to be, I'd be you, and I'd take off for Greece with Uma Thurman. Well, after I got my knife/gun project finished. :)

    The Newell .45 cal front loader

    I don't know who you're referring to Sean, but I do know makers who seem to think speed is the primary value of their work. I'm with you and others here - taking one's time is where it's at, even if that reduces your hourly rate. I work for John Deere. The other day my coworkers celebrated...
