Hey Gents, been a while since was on here last. I have beeb busy with my pen making and have been I'll all winter, with heart problems. I have 2 grandsons that want to learn how to whittle. I have permission from their parents to teach them.

I am in need of a couple of one bladed whittling knives, preferredly with warnie blades. Ineed help, being sick all winter has put a strain on my budject. I do have some real nice pens I can trade for your services, if interested, please let me know, Thanks, Keith

Hi Keith,

I have a liking for pen knives and a very varied collection that I'm sure has some quality single blade whittling knives for a couple of young lads. Most of the guys here know I work on knives, so reprofiling a blade for the way you want it would come with any trade. If you want to PM (or post here) a picture of what you have in mind, I'd be glad to help.

Keith, I've been teaching whittling to some of the Cub Scouts using barlows with the clip blade ground straight--like an angular wharncliffe. (carry one myself too). Only problem is that they have 2 blades; modified clip and the pen.

Got a spare here. If that will work for you, shoot me a PM and I'll get it sent out.
