I'm going to have to take a closer look at the KCKA after I get home tonight. Don't make knives (yet) but I'm in KC and I sure do like knives.

Hey Eric welcome aboard. Looking forward to working with you on engraving and knifemaking. Should be fun. I have some killer ideas for some highly engraved daggers this year. COOL!
