Rick has great tools for sale. Especially if you can get one of his hand made ones.....

I would like to buy another knife from him but he is booked, my loss!

Be carefull with those tools, Rick knows how to put a sharp edge on them.

I love the set I got from Rick's. They are great.

My only problem with the knife is that I keep wanting to use it upside down, or backwards as the case may be. I guess to me it looks more like a paring knife from the kitchen that way. I sat for almost 5 minutes trying to figure out why in the world the thing wouldn't cut. I thought maybe I needed to sharpen it. But then, the light bulb went off. It works so much better the right way.

I was having a blond moment and I'm not blond.
