[Woodcarver] 3-drawknife (was Nisse chat)

[sally nye]

Hi Merrilee,
The 3-inch drawknife went into production at Flexcut in June, 2003.  We 
didn't have it before that time.  It had not been developed when you 
were in our class.  You'll have a chance to see it or even USE it  next 
weekend.
See ya then,
Sally

Greetings Sally!
   Be sure to let us know when you put the knife on your web.  When did 
you get to make this?  It must have been after I took your class 
several years ago wasn't it?  I'm sure I would have gotten it!
See ya soon!
Merrilee
