Wow Scott!  Very interesting design and very nice job I like that!

I have several projects between me and a hawk, but I'll get to it!  

Where did you get your drift?

I'm going to Mr. Bill Moran's shop in the morning and will be rubbing elbows with two Mastersmiths!  Can't wait!

steve... i got my drift at kayne&sons when i was in haywood.

i've always wanted a small carving axe... that was the inspiration and the reason for the heavily curved blade.

i'm jealous.... sounds fun!
