Hi and welcome.

If you really want to be inspired you should consider attending the Melbourne knife show in early May. Sure to be lots of good stuff there.

Welcome and that is good advice from JT. The Melbourne knife show will inspire you even more. Hell you will probably meet a good number of forums folk there.

In fact the level of knife craft quality has never been higher. A good time to get into it.

Yes, i know, i've put the date in my diary.

Although i must say there is a danger of all this brilliant work to simply appear unattainable :-) So far so good though, just makes my fingers itchy.

Yeah I see the whole thing as a journey. I remember when my cold steel was probably my best knife. Not anymore eh? You just chip away at it and you can get somewhere. Keep an eye on the market. Good prices on stuff still come up.

Hey, I am new too, good to see a few of us Vic's getting into it!

I am not new to knives but very new to the Aussie scene. I've only really gotten into collecting the last couple of years & just bought a Bodega, so it really doesn't take long for this addiction to take hold! This place is very inspiring, wish I had found it long ago.... Cheers
