Good Morning ALL,

I can't believe there are actually other blocks out there who have an interest in bow hunting and knives.
My wife has been telling me for some time that I have some sort of rare incurable disease for which modern medical science has no answers.
I have a number of custom blades that I will photograph for you when I get a new digital camera.

I am looking forward to being a regular contributor on this forum.

Alex :D

Hi Alex
Good to have you here.
Dont worry I have a similar affliction but I have been hiding it by only posting bow photos. Keen to see what you make.

Welcome aboard Alex. Liking bows and knives isn't weird mate, it's normal. :wink:

There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.

Hey Jeff,

Thanks for the thoughts. I think Kiwis are great - so long as they stay in
New Zealand and they don't play football or cricket. :lol:
Looking forward to corresponding with you in the future.

I think my wife is going to regret me finding this site.
I have a passion for knives and bows...

I am a kiwi too and it looks like i am going to enjoy talking to like minded people. I will post some pics of my knives as soon as I can.
And I hope to start making some too.

cheers
Greg

Alex :D
I like that, even if accidental, - my girlfriend calls me a blockhead every time I contemplate spending money on a knife or bow instead of paying the bills etc. She just doesn't understand!
Looking forward to seeing your pics too.
