ABS Journeyman Smith candidate Dee Hedges of Australia sucessfully performs the rope cutting portion of the ABS Performance Test at the Blade Show in Atlanta. Dee later completed the rest of the performance test and had her five knives judged by the ABS Judging Panel and was awarded a Journeyman Smith rating in the American Bladesmith Society. NOTE: The right foot should have been put forward instead of the left leg for safety.
