Hey everyone! My name is Carter and i live in Brandon Manitoba. im just getting into making knives. ive done lots of "knives" from cheap flat weldable steel but i have just gotten into making useable knives! i am currently working on a bushcraft style knife that i am making from an old file. as well as a small bowie with just over a 4'' blade and is made from 1084. I am also just started my production knife collection. which consists mostly of Spyderco, Cold Steel, CRKT, Kabar, Buck, and some others. but it changes alot because i love to trade them to try out new knives! currently my 2 favourite are the spyderco military in cpm s30v and the cold steel g10 xl espada. Id love to now what your 2 favourite productions are as well as some of your latest work!
wow, thats a town I haven't heard about in ages. The last time I heard brandon manitoba come up, was when that whole disaster with the oneway streets. I grew up in morden manitoba just right next to you. The old school steak restaurant at the edge of brandon, is it still there?
Hey Carter, glad to see you found the forum. It was nice to meet you on Friday. I think you will find this to be a pretty helpful place with a good group of guys willing to share their knowledge.
Welcome aboard Carter. As Grayzer has said, it's a decent bunch with lots of info for both the beginning and more experienced maker.
Welcome to the forum, Carter! I live in Alberta now, but I was born and raised in Winnipeg for the first 18 years of my life. Most of my immediate family still lives there. I think you'll like this forum. Lots of great people, super information and very user friendly! Jim T
