Hi folks, I figured since I was taking a little breather before I hit the ground running in 2015, I'd update you all on some exciting things that's going on around the shop.
First, for those of you that don't know, I have a secondary location/shop that I not only have been doing knife work, but some subcontracting metal fab work. Its nice to trade off work when one is slow, but so far they both seem to be keeping me pretty busy. (Which is good) the construction of the new shop is slow, but its a working project meaning when the funds and time are available. So far I've been lucky enough to not have to get a business loan and I couldn't be happier about that.
Something else that I'm very excited about, for those of you that havnt listened to it, T.M.Hunt custom knives was featured in the knife journal podcast episode 61. Its always a pleasure to talk to Mr. James Nowka and Mr. Kyle Ver Steeg. It was a fun interview and look forward to being back on the show in the future. Equally exciting is I will be having a couple of magazine articles coming out the first of the year. First, I will have a featured article in Self Reliance Illustrated. I havnt seen the article, but it was photographed by my good friend Brian Griffin so you know the writing and the photography will be second to none. I don't know what all will make the pages, but Brian has a large plethora of my cutting tools ranging all the way from a hornet to a M-18 and just to show off my more artistic side also has my brass back bowie that I introduced to the world at this years Blade show in Atlanta. Will be looking forward to that. Also, there is a knife review coming out in The New Pioneer magazine. This review compares the bang for your buck so to speak and the knives featured are, a Buck Vangaurd, Tops Viper Scout, Benchmade Bushcrafter, ESEE Izula ll and a Yuma built by yours truely. Both articles im told go to print in Jan and will both be out in the Spring issues. (Late January)
All of this and more I think will make for a pretty exciting 2015. I have sent in my money and will be attending the Blade show again as a vendor, I also plan on doing a few local shows this year, aaannnnddddd just maybe. You might see some T.M.Hunt edged goodness on the old T.V. screen before the year is out, but more on that later.
So, as you can see, the fires are a burnin and the irons are in the fire. Again, I know I have a lot of you here to thank for it. So, come on with me on what should be a great ride in 2015.
Thanks so much!
