I guess it was just a matter of transferring that curiosity into metallurgy and knife design.

However, since those days, I have always had an interest in learning about the history, origins, and use of bladed tools of all sorts from various places around the world. You might say I am more academic in that way. I don't have the space nor facilities to build tools now but it is something I would like to move toward having.
