Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

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.

The leaves may still be on the trees and no snow on the ground, but this knife just say "November!" all over it. Thanks for sharing Denis - 

Na Zdrowie!

Last month of the year ... but we will soon be starting all over, since my 2025 calendar should be here on Monday!  Anyway, here we go with December 2024 and the knife my daughter got me last year for Christmas.  A sole authorship Alan Davis with fossilized walrus ivory scales feather Damascus blade and textured sterling silver bolsters and back spacer.  Hope everyone has a great December.

Wow...wow...wow...That's an insane looking piece Dennis.

Happy New Year ... 2025 and we are off to a start!  January!!!

Here is the most recent knife I got from Italian knife maker Carlo Cavedon.  A mini-Tiburon in ivory and mosaic Damascus.

Looking good!

Thanks for sharing with us  :)

Always a crowd pleaser Dennis....Happy New Year my friend!

Super cool Dennis.  Happy New Year to all! ! !

s usual just stunning Dennis! Thanks for sharing with us. I look forward to the first week of every month to see what you have gotten

February .... and, based on the winter we have had this season, have to believe that Phil will definitely see his shadow tomorrow!!!

Here is the beautiful sole authorship Alan Davis folder my daughter and her partner got me for Christmas.

he he he...   I love it.   That is one really nice looking blade.

For whatever reason, that instills a 'feeling' of lava or magma.  That combination of that damascus pattern and the red/orange//black jigged bone.  wow,  Until I saw it I never realized how good that would look.

Thank you for sharing!

Thanks Kevin .... but, it isn't bone.  It is a fiery amber stag.  Blade and bolsters (as well as back spacer and thumb stud) are Alan's own forged Damascus.   And, on another note ...... It's Groundhog Day!!!

 

It's March ... but still have multiple feet of snow on the ground.  That Pennsylvania rodent was right ... no early spring for us!!

Recently saw a knife made by J.D. Ware (have a number of his knives in my collection).  It is currently on its way to me from Mexico.  Jeff is a very interesting artisan from the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico.  He moved there from his home in Philadelphia in 2010 and makes some very interesting knives. Here is one from my collection.  It is a coin knife made from a 1788 Spanish Colonial 8-reales silver coin (.900 silver) minted in Mexico City. Jeff precisely cuts the coins in half using wire EDM, then ads springs and blades (cutting and filing) to make a unique, yet functional knife. The keychain is made by a traditional Yucatecan jeweler named Carlos Canul.  It is made from .925 silver.
