Hello, I am Tony Z from Kansas City. A am an American Bladesmith Society Apprentice bladesmith in my spare time when not working as a butcher. I am probably the slowest knifemaker in the ABS, having little patience but am working on improving that. I guess I am obsessed with attention to detail, so that is good but slow.
I recently bought a Jet 1015VS on a whim and starting turning a few pens and pencils. I can make a beautiful pen much faster than I can make a finished knife with sheath. So, in between knives, when I start to lose patience and get frustrated, I start a pen or pencil. And absolutely love it! Believe I am hooked! Anyhow...
I am also a USMC veteran, a Gulf War veteran and a VFW Life member. I hope to learn a lot from this forum, as I have on the many knifemaker's forums. Thanks.
