The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel
The time has come to start the discussion on the 2014 iKC knife.
I would again like to shoot for August/Sept delivery date. Something to remember while we talk about this is that a short run of only 50 or so knives means we need to tie in with a maker that is already running a knife and tweak that one to make it our own. The reason for this is most SFO's require a minimum order of 250 or more. Also I would like to keep it less than $125.00 delivered to you. I have some eyes checking out whats available at a factory or two but always love to hear your ideas. Remember, this is YOUR knife
Here is a pic of the official annual knives we have done so far
Waiting room pace ! LOL
Yes it all comes down to Blade Show and the meetings! Well I wish we knew sooner but we have to go carefully based on participation in iKC. Obviously if more folks participated in our knife we might have a bigger club "if you will" to swing in the direction of the companies involved. There will come a day when we reach some greater number and perhaps command a full run!
No matter what we will have a knife for 2014 and I am excited!
I agree, Steve. How many is a full run?
It depends on what company Robert. Anywhere from 100 SFO's to 2500. Having a discussion or two on that for next years knife also :)
maybe next year we do a seath knife with 5 1/4 blade and bone handel with a full tang
Elbin, I like the 50 knives concept and may have found a way to keep that number but still order enough to make a run. Ultimate goal for us is to be able eventually do one fixed blade/tactical a year and one folder
that sounds right on miss jan ,you see i told you were doing a great job
are we ready? Can I have a drum roll?
Let me tell you what we were able to pull off for this year. A true one of a kind club knife at a price we can all enjoy.
At 3 1/2 closed, this knife is handy in the pocket. With high polished 420 SS blades, ribbed bolsters and a distinctive etch on the bone! Only 50 of these will be made.
After discussing with Ken Daniels and Kevin Pipes, we obtained the approval to sell these with the Colonel Coon tang stamp. There will be a signed certificate of authenticity, it will also state this is our 5th anniversary year :)
This knife comes in at 91.00 US dollars, which includes shipping to US destinations. If you are outside of the US, simply check with me for shipping cost. No markup on the shipping I promise.
A sincere Thank You to everyone involved. All the iKC members, Queen and Kevin Pipes!
I have given us a close up and a realistic view for your enjoyment.
As always we need to get them sold to complete the order. They will be in the mail within 6 weeks
I love it! Please put my name down for one. I love clip points.
I'll pay after, I pay my bills. I had a large payment for my Hunting Club dues.
Thanks for all your hard work, Miss Jan.
Robert your in. Thank you
