New member
Hi folks, I am a new member from Texas. I was a member of the old Primal Fires and I am now a member of the New Primal Fires. I have been lurking here for the last couple of days and y'all seem like pretty good folks here so I decided to join your group too. I have just begun my quest on making knives and I am right in the middle of making one now with a lot of help from a Louisana knifemaker and friend. He has been instrumental in getting me off my can and out into shop to start forging. A new friend and fellow knife maker from Waco was kind enough to give me some 1095 and other materials to begin my quest. I had previously been hammering on old RR spikes. I have really learned a lot in the last few days. I have been having so much fun with this and I am exited about finishing so I can do more. I am working on a half-tang for my first knife. I also started two other knives in between the internet tutorial. I decided that for my first blade that I would try to use only forge, files and sandpaper. After that, who knows where it will lead. I hope you will welcome me into your forum.
