Knife Dealer Extraordinaire
Despite the never ending torrential rains we sure had a great time.The Shop name for the day was "Lake George"!! Stabber Jr and I got a lot done thanks to IG!!
We used Aldo's 1095 for the big blades, And Stabber Jr grabbed a piece of his 1084 to hammer one more out before we had to leave.

Here's IG telling us what to do.He is a good teacher!!
