"When I was 9 years old my Dad gave me a 6 inch Rizutto with a broken spring. I can remember trying to stick a coat hanger wire into it trying to fix it but to no avail. I later took the blade out and stuck it into one of those Taiwan switchblade combs because I wanted it to work so bad but I ended up destroying both of them in the process. When I was a kid I loved going to flea markets and gun shows looking for switchblades and butterfly knives that I've always liked. Even now as an adult I love them all the more. I like most all knives but have always had a thing for the classy Italian stiletto's. Its been a blast to meet up with other collector's on the internet and also learning the mechanics from makers like Don Hall, Arlin Walker, Bill McHenry, Reese Weiland, Jerry Rados, and George Cameron to name a few. I currently reside in Ohio where I am now a full-time knifemaker with a modest machine shop. I also restored antique stiletto's professionally for antique dealers for several years before becoming a custom knifemaker."
