What an excellently design Site! My name is Paul and I'm from Copper Cliff (near Sudbury) in Northern Ontario. I'm looking forward to learning as much as I can from the CKM Members. From what I've seen so far, the tone of the discussions has been very respectful... and as a Rookie, I LIKE THAT. I am an experienced woodworker, but it hasn't been until recently that I became interested in Knifemaking. Your guidance, cooperation and patience will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Paul (a.k.a. Babbo295)
Welcome to the forums, Paul. And thanks. It's our mandate to foster a community of information sharing and mutual respect. This is a place for both new and experienced makers to meet, discuss the craft, and learn from each other. I can't guarantee we'll always have the answer, but we welcome all questions. As they say, the only stupid question is the one not asked.
