I use to work in the Glass industry, I was what is known as a Glaser. Basically a fancy make for a guy who works with glass, I specialized in commercial store fronts and high end custom mirror walls and shower enclosures.. Then after a messy divorce and a move, I started working doing Auto glass replacement. and did that for about 5 or 6 years. till I fell on the ice and injured my back. Long and the short of it, The doctors said I couldnt return to doing glass without getting a surgery. Which I was not going to do. So after 3 or 4 doctors I found one that agreed that we should try another option rather then going under the knife.. So a bunch of Physical Therapy later.. And Thank God.. My back is still much better..
At the time I was drinking in excess. to the point where it had become detrimental to having a "normal" life.. Between the drinking and the pain pills from the back injury . I was a MESS!
One day I was on my way to the beer store. I went off the road and hit a rather large tree head on at about 50 mph.. That day was the end of my drinking and the beginning of everything good . Including Knife making. For whatever reason God reached down and put his hand on my shoulder and kept me from being killed in the accident. I mean the car was totaled and the impact was so fierce the motor came through the firewall and floor and was inside the car between the 2 front seats. CRAZY to see that much damage and I walked away virtually unharmed.
I have not had a drink since. and this knife making has been something that keeps my mind and hands occupied. Im totally nuts about it and I thank God, for giving me this obsession and passion for knives. Its helped to keep me sane and sober! 8 years and counting!
God Bless YA
