Over the last ten years I have been fortunate to have traveled across the US also London, Italy, Toronto, France and the Orient taining under many of the industry greats. For the last three years this unique cutting system has become my true passion. The VERN ambidextrous cutting system has the ability to produce the perfect cut by utilizing the right and left hand in ways traditional single handed system cannot duplicate. To see the incredible cutting skills of the VERN Team, copy-and-paste the address below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCcZia0BHtE.
