One thing I would add...... When you get your knives completed, Get as many Master Smiths and Journeyman smiths to critic your knives before you go to Atlanta. This will save you a lot of heartache, and time to fix them before you go!

Ray,

Thanks for the good advice. There’s a few Journeyman and Master smiths in my area, and I plan to do just that.

Whoops- sorry Josh, I meant to give you a vote up, but I fat fingered it... My bad.

I fixed the down vote since you said it was wrong.

Thank you! I've never seen Josh post something that wasn't a bit of valuable information, and I wanted to make sure he got credit for that.

Thank you Evan.

Back on the subject of integrals for the JS presentation, the only piece of advice I have for you is to do things that you are very familiar with. Shapes and designs that you have done several times are probably better than something that you are still working the bugs out of.

(take it or leave it as I have never done the JS presentation, but I have given it a lot of thought)

Good advice. (I haven't listened to any yet, but it was still good) <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//wink.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />
