Matt's Knives #18486257 06/08/23

OP tdd4570 Campfire Regular T Joined: Oct 2010 Posts: 1,419 The Woodlands	My youngest son Matt has been putting handles on knives for the past few years. He is currently 14 and will start high school in the fall. He is mowing yards and power washing driveways with his brother. He is basically doing anything he can to stay busy and make some extra money. I stopped by TX knifemakers supply earlier in the week and bought him 5 blanks. I'm sure he will get them put together in the next couple of weeks and try to make a few dollars on them while getting better at the process. Anyway, I wanted to brag on him a little and put up a few pics of the stuff he has finished. Thanks Dave
