Knife Set Auction for Josh Holm
If you go up from that page to the main page, you'll see lots of stuff the Washington Site is doing for Josh... and some updates, which aren't sounding real good lately.

There's lots of details on the Washington site.
I believe he's 12, he lives in Wisconsin. He's got an aggeressive form of Liver Cancer. He's been fighting it for some time now, but he's actually not doing real well as we speak. (It's been a long, rollercoaster type story.) His folks live 5 hours from the hospital where he's being treated ( I think it's in Milwaukee.) They have insurance, but there's still mountains of expenses.
His Uncle lives near me, and gave me some sawmill steel to make knives with. We agreed I'd make something to raise money for Josh's folks (his brother.) I used some of that steel for this set.

Rain,
Sorry to hear about Josh. Give him my best wishes.
That knife set looked mighty sweet but the bidding is out of my price range now
Good luck
