Hi all! New member here but not new to following the forum. I've been visiting the site for many years now and my "modest" and ever growing knife collection is probably a result of that. I've handmade / heated treated one and only one outdoor knife as I decided soon thereafter it's just easier to buy one. I'm from Maryland and actually live pretty close to one of the greatest knife makers of all time in the late great Bill Moran for those that know that name. Look forward to participating here and perhaps selling some knives to make room for new ones lol. Will upload a few photos of my old simple knife just because. Cheers.
