Nick2cd Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 I have always loved watching the "birth of a tool" vids by john neeman. i think they embody the "maker's" craft that we all love so much. as i was browsing the net and drooling over some of Neeman's tools, I've found a few articles that would suggest John Neeman has left the John Neeman tool company. It looks as though he may be with a new company called Autine. Are they the same company? different companies? I'm very confused over it. anyone have any knowledge on this?

Nick2cd Posted June 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 Graham Haydon came to the rescue and messaged me this link. it explains that John Neeman did infact leave John Neeman tools and started his own company called Autine by John Neeman. Thanks Graham! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdwerker Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 Sometimes a creative person has to move on to be able to pursue their craft . Bose, JBL and Altec Lansing all involved Johann Bose Lansing so I guess he moved on at least twice. Neeman does make some impressive tools!

I would love to buy a Neeman axe and a damascus knife by bob kramer. i think the axe is much more realistic. Neeman makes some impressive damascus as well though.

TheFatBaron Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 http://www.neemantools.com/en/about-us/story There are two sides to this story, but the fact is, there is no "John Neeman." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
