My back surgery is almost 5 weeks out now.  I'm having no pain down my legs and walking 3+ miles daily.  Still can't lift anything greater than 10#...but I did manage sneak back into the shop.  No forging for another 8 weeks but added some Springbok antler slabs to my Bear Quest knife.  Felt good to begin doing things again...tippit

I like how the scales seem to grow right out of the steel.

Looks nice I know the feeling all to well. 3 months of no work really set me back I am actuall just catching up. Since I started physical traing I am really feeling good shoulder pain is slowly disapering.

Excellent work as usual Jeff, glad to see ur doing well. Was hoping to bump into you at ETAR.  Next year. Trying to talk George into another hammer-in, but so far hes wilting in the heat like the rest of us.

Jeff,

It's wonderful to know that you are getting back to normal. I just hate that you had to go through all the problems. One thing for sure -- I can't see anything wrong with that knife! Hopefully, you will be looking that sharp and strong soon yourself.
