Hello from Atlanta

Post by wackyd »

Hello folks,


Hope you are well.

Thanks for having me here.


I joined to see about feedback on a collection of knives I acquired when my grandfather passed away last year.

When I was younger, I kept up with a knife collection, pretty much anything I could get my hands on, but what I have inherited I think predates me and mainly consists of Sheffield Knives, with a few German made ones to round it out.


I'll post pictures as I figure out how!


Thanks!



Daniel
