Looking for knife makers near Cologne.....

[Mace]

Hello,
I will be visiting Cologne in the near future and am looking for any knife makers / Bladesmiths that would like to get together.
My name is Mace Vitale and I am a Journeyman Smith in the American Bladesmith Society. I am looking for a culturel exchange. Maybe visit someones shop and have a few biers.
I am also interested in anything that might be interesting to check out while I am there.
Thank You
Mace

Here is a photo of some of my work.

Gibt's niemand in Raum Köln der dieser amerikanische Messeschmid treffen will? EinKaffe trinken und Paar Messer zeigen? Wo bleibt die Gastfreundlichkeit ihr Rheinländern!

Hi,

I'm not a Knifemaker or Bladesmith, just a user and collector.

If you want, I will be more then happy to welcome you at our house and take you on a tour through cologne. We live next to cologne, and I was born there I guess we can also arrange a meeting with some other local knife-enthusiats and (hobby) knifemakers

Please e-mail me at: webmaster@ytiger.com

Greetings,
Olli
