Sitting in the window of this small shop was the perfect knife

As soon as I saw it, I turned to my husband and said, "That knife is leaving this island with me." We contacted the owners Chris & Krista, and they told us we could meet them at the shop the next day to pick it up. We talked with them for quite a while about how the shop began, the process of making the blades & handles, their plans for expansion, and more. They are amazing, kind, down-to-earth people that I am very proud to support.
