Another feather in your hat. Or is it more like a headdress.
Congrats! Way to Go!

Congratulations on the new feather. If you wear that hat while driving do all the feathers make it hard to see the road? ;-)

First Congrats!!! Second, with the companies that are no longer around, how do you get certified? Is it by who bought the name?

Tom-
Angelo Campolin, Sr. was the production manager for Mauro Mario. He certified me.
Sam Polk and Walt Halucha both certified me for Latama. Ragtime Red got my certificate from Sam Polk for me.
George Schrade's great grandson certified me for Schrade designs (on original Presto stationary!)He has also reopened G. Schrade Knife Co.
Hubertus owns Ritter and Grafrath. Henning Ritter certified me.
