Bill,

As always, a pleasure seeing you and thanks for the compliments on the knives. Coming from someone with your expertise in making practical working blades, it means a great deal. I like your new blades as well, the SHOT Show Report should be up shortly. Just taking a breather right now, needed a brief break.

It's unfortunate that so often the only time we all get together is under show circumstances, which generally makes for a rather franetic experience. :-( Wiht luck, Blade will be less hectic and Sue will be along as well.

Secret to the waiters is to sic Ethan on 'em. <g>
