Title: Been awhile!!!!
Post by: maddog314 on December 20, 2013, 08:44:31 pm

I have not been on here in awhile! I have had some things come up that have kept me from the pit the last few months. The most recent one being my dad in the hospital and the Doctors not knowing what was shutting down his organs! (he is starting to do better due to dialysis)... ANYHOW... my cousin called me and asked if I would make something for his brother-in-law. so this is what I came up with!
Thanks for looking and keep on knapping! And God Bless!

Great Job Maddog!  Sorry about your Dad going through all that nd sounds hes feeling better!  I was born with bad kidneys and my blood pressure was extremelyhigh for a long time.  I was supposed to go on dialysis if I didn't get it under control...so far so good and I didn't have to go yet.  Its a lot to have to deal with and can emotionally ware u down.  Great pair of knives!
