Novice Knife User (Actually, they're Sai. But close enough.)
Those aren't knives, more like Dabbling Thresher...
Proficient Herbalist: training to be a proffesional botanist, about to start an internship doing research, damn good at IDing plants and harvesting munchies/dyestuff/fiber
Adequate mason (rusty): built rock walls for $4/hour for years in hgighschool. Can lay good straight lines of cinderblock with tidy mortar and make/work with cement, by hand and by machine.
Novice miner (rusty): have dug deep holes in jungle clay (septic tank) and chipped through cement, both with a pick (actually a copper pick, funnily enough (with a little berylium))and iron bar.
Novice woodcrafter: I like to make things out of wood, most recently a nifty little 5:1
assymetric ballance scale.
Novice swordsdwarf (rusty)
Adequate dodger: fenced for years. Never competed, but did well within my club against people who did, mainly because of being good at dodging (suspiciously long reach for a dwarf didn't hurt, though...)
Dabbling engraver: I've been carving runestones in out of the way places for a while now. Future archaeologists will hate me.
Novice dyer: I can produce yellow, various browns, black, lavender, magenta, and deep red with various scavenged dyestuffs
Novice thresher: I can turn plants into strong cordage
Novice clothier: I can hand and machine sew decently, though my garment design skills are suspect. I can also make good rope, by hand and with a machine I made.
