Blade Show Coming Up! [Apr. 27th, 2008|10:31 am]

[mood | tired]

And it keeps staying busy. After the last slew of events, my stock is low and I have another slew of events in May. Of course the biggest is the Blade Show at the end of the month, in Atlanta. But before that I have a have a local SCA event and then another festival in Nashville to try for the first time. I fully expect for knife sales to suck at Nashville. But my wife should do just fine with her amber.

So, between now and then I need to make some (read "a lot of") knives. Fortunately I'm back to having a lot of work in the pipeline again. I have a bunch of pattern welded material made up. I have some billets cut, cleaned and stacked to make more (But I still need to cut, clean and stack a few of the special billets to make axes). And I have one knife already forged to shape, awaiting grinding.  (Outside of the work in progress for orders, that is. Several of those have been profiled and more)

This last week was spent on projects for the Kennel and the house. I still have a bunch left to do, but I can see the light at the end of that tunnel (at least for the time being (this season?)). So May will be spent makes Knives I hope (plus a few more house jobs and some more work on the Model A (More in another post))

I'll try to post more often, along with photos of work in progress. Speaking of photo's, would anyone care to see some Nature photos from around here? Spring has Sprung and it is stunning!

You can also find a "few" photos here: www.goldsword.com/sfarmer/
Of course, being a botanist type person, most of the pictures are macro-pictures of plants... Actually, come to think, she's always taken pictures of plants like that...
