Nice looking place you have here , all things rat. I love it.

I always been a fan of the rat rod , I plan on spending quite a bit of time reading all I can here.

I am from Henderson , NV. Hopefully in the not so distant future I will begin a rat build of my own , after seeing a bunch at the Henderson Super Run , well I got the urge. I must have walked that show 5 times last weekend and took over 300 pictures. Yes , it is a benefit living less than 1 1/2 miles from the show. :D

Building a rat with the help of my dad , would just be awesome. Without him I would not be where I am today.

My main side hobbies are shooting with dad and my 3 sons archery with my sons , and knife making , only fixed blades , no folders yet. ( in fact I got the link to this site from another knifemaker ).
 
Hey Tracy , yup I made it over. Thanks for the link my friend.

I posted some of my picts of the Super Run here ( mostly the same ones I posted on CKG Tracy ).

Thanks for the warm welcome.
 
Thanks guys , I can post some links to my recent knives as soon as get my primary PC back in action , all my picts are on the 2nd hard drive of that PC.

Here are some from some made either last year or early this year.

I also do my own leather sheaths as well.

this one I did for one of my closest friends , to honor his 6 year old son Finn who passed away. It was joint effort between Kit Carson ( engraving ) , Trace Rinaldi ( primary grinds and knife design ) , me - final grinds and hand satin finish , and also the wood ( Hawaiian Koa ) handle , leather sheath , presentation box built from a kit by my wife.

some with a bit of color to them , handle color / material was picked out by my 8 yr old son.
The top one was for a guy who went on a hunt in New Zealand and bagged a Red Stag , and used the knife to dress it out. The guides liked the knife so much he left it with them as a gift.

This is just a hobby for me , other things in life take priority , like my 3 sons , and once I start a rat , I feel that will take priority .... hmmm maybe make knives to sell to buy more rodding parts....
