    hey all!

    my name is joe calton, and I have been a more or less full time knifemaker for 12 years or so. ive been shooting slingshots off and on since I was a kid {i cannot remember not knowing how to shoot one}, with the last serious time being about 5 years ago. then all of a sudden I hear that we have new latexes that arent affected by the cold and that we can hunt in colder weather, and now all of a sudden im back into it!

    and being a knifemaker, with all the grinders, saws, milling machine, drill press, ect... why not make a couple for sale and as gifts inbetween batches of knives :}

    Joe

    Welcome from Georgia Joe, glad you found your way over.

    Be sure to post a link to your YouTube site also as most guys here are knife nuts as well.
