Interested
Mr. Rechsteiner
I am interested in attending. I am new to the knife making scene. I have met both Henry Cambron as well as Stephan Fowler. I completed my first blade at Stephan's shop. |

Look forward to seeing you there JR. Make sure you find me and introduce yourself. Couldn't meet two finer gentlemen, both are good friends and excellent knifemakers (although Henry is kind of letting his acting career get in the way of his knife work). Bring some of your work with you - I always enjoy looking at new work.
There is a Ga Guild meeting in Blairsville today you are welcome to attend. I won't be able to make this one, other obligations. All three of us - Henry, Stephan, & I - have done our stints as President of the Guild. It's a great organization and a good networking tool for both new and experienced knifemakers. __________________ Carl Rechsteiner, Bladesmith Georgia Custom Knifemakers Guild, Charter Member Knifemakers Guild, voting member Registered Master Artist - GA Council for the Arts C Rex Custom Knives Blade Show Table 6-H |
