A new iKC calendar and a new year of knives!

by Dennis Hibar

Jan 1, 2020

Can't believe we are entering a another decade. I hope everyone has a great new year.  As I open up a new iKC calendar, thought it would be a great idea to choose a knife a month to showcase.  Here's my knife of the month for January (I wonder what yours might be?!).  This is the last knife I purchased in 2019.  It's a utility / hunter by TK Steingass - spalted hackberry handle with a 4.5" 1095 blade with hamon.

    A real sweet looking one there Dennis.  That damascus pattern is insane ! !

    April .... wind and rain, but any major snow is now just a memory!  

    Here is one of my favorite knives made by Carlo Cavedon.  It's one of his Longimano models with ivory scales, engraved bolsters and a fantastic mosaic Damascus blade by Russian blacksmith Vlad Matveev.

    For the start of May ... here's a small friction folder by Shelby Mihalevich with a textured and oxidized copper frame.  The Damascus blade is 1.875" long, making for a nice fit in my front or back pocket.
