Damn nice work. I collect but not the real high end stuff. Yours are really nice. Love the folders. If you ever decide to make them again I'd buy for sure.

Does this mean your open for more business?
I've got pieces of Acacia (sp) wood from a butcher block shelf we had made. So nice I didn't want to throw it out. I bet that would make nice handles. Guy also said Acacia wood is what the Ark of the Covenant was made from.

Greetings and salutations KM!
I don't know if you remember me but back in 2008. . .
I had a business trip to St Louis. I flew to Culman AL and bought my fjr and then rode to MO. 1st stop was your garage to do an oil / filter change. Then did my business for a few days in MO and rode home to CT. I still speak to friends about your generous hospitatlity
The fjr is now gone and I am bikeless but I still miss riding and will probably pick up something to do 3-400 mile day trips. The 1000 mile days are a thing of the past for sure, now that I'm pushing 77
Anyway good to see you are still kicking around!. I occasionally log in here just to see what I'm missing.

Hey CTFJR, yes I remember you. Sorry to hear you are bike-less. I actually sold my FJR and got a 2012 Triumph Bonneville. Thanks for the steak dinner!
Meanwhile, just made this chefs knife using African Paduak for the handle, as a Christmas present for a “self proclaimed newbie chef” …AKA the school principal for the school my wife works for.

Glad to see you keeping a hand in it. Once again a home run.

Hey all… if you go back to post #60 in this thread I posted a photo of a 5” Santoku I
made for an elderly women my wife cares for. Sadly, she has been moved to an extended care facility. She’s doing “OK” but her prognosis isn’t very positive. The other sad part is they don’t allow their residents to bring sharp objects like kitchen knives onto the premises. I accepted a return and refund of the knife I made for her.
So, if anyone is interested, I’ll gladly sell the knife to whoever wants it for $50.00 plus shipping. She made a point of not letting anyone handle the knife other than her, there’s no damage to the blade and it’s as pristine as it was when she received it.
PM me if you’re interested.
