The Tourist

Hello, everyone. I have used the name "The Tourist" for many years on several forums, but my name is Chico and I'm a professional knife sharpener.
Now, before you run and hide the good silver, I was actually invited here by sattie.
I live in the Madison, Wisconsin area, I retired young because work was getting in the way of serious pursuits. And alas, I have a bizarre sense of humor.
Let me return the favor that sattie extended to me. I suggest that you join me at a haunt of other professionals sharpeners (rightfully the title is "tinker") at www.KnifeForums.com (http://www.KnifeForums.com) in a sub-section called "Keeping Sharp."
I specialize in sharpening Japanese kitchen knives.

Hey, thanks, guys. I think this is going to be fun.
The connection between chefs and tinkers has always been spirited and something to which I've always looked forward.
And I'd like to be part of something that's growing.
Hi Chico. Welcome to Net Cooking Talk!!!
Thanks to Sattie for referring you! :D
We needed this growth spurt. :D
Enjoy and post often!

Thanks, GM. In fact, I just finished "a few fingers" of Don Julio. It's been a long day, and I'm just sitting in front of the computer, killing time.

If you can find some Frida Kahlo Anejo, try it. I think you'll like it. Casta Pasion is noce as well.
