Congratulations, Lin. Your knives were really something special...the Quillion dagger was just unreal folks.

Congratulations Lin! A well deserved accomplishment

Lin Rhea · June 01, 2009, 08:08:00 AM

Thanks guys!!

I'm up early at a Hotel in Mississippi while the rest of the bunch sleeps in.

It was a very good show that I wont soon forget. I met lot's of new friends and renewed some old ones. It was a pleasure to visit my buddies, Ray Hammond, Dan Masson, Ian Johnson and his talented Dad, and of course, Karl!!!! What an honor to get to know Doug Campbell. This guy will go far in knifemaking. I hope this is the beginning of a long friendship. Thanks for being there Doug.

The good thing about the Blade show as well as the other traditional events is that I get to meet people from all over the world and that's very special to me. I'll get home this evening sometime and may check in then. Thanks again. Lin
