News from the Workshop
My First Employee
I am no longer alone in the workshop. My first employee began working with me on May 8th. Dan is an industrial designer from Ohio and is doing an internship in my shop as the final leg of his degree program. He recently completed his first folder design which we produced and as soon as I get some pics made, you'll see the knives here!
