...like to have makers stick to what they know well, or do you prefer to like to let them try new things? I am finding that if a maker is wanting to, that I am more than happy to have them try new things. I enjoy giving makers a chance to make a pattern welded steel they have never made before, or a Michael Price style all silver sheath, or to forge S-30V. The reason for this is that I feel it gives them the chance to build their skills, opening up new opportunities for them in the future.
