<p><strong>iKnifeCollector has long believed that supporting this group and AKTI is essential to retaining and regaining our rights to own knives. There is a central forum location to update AKTI but I did not realize until this morning that Kniferights.org did not have thier own update forum.

<p>Are you interested in knife politics and laws? If so, read on.</p>
<p>Member Clint Thompson recently posted a poll of iKC members entitled "HELP! FELLOW iKC MEMBERS. I NEED YOUR HELP", in which he asked for iKC members' input on some research he is doing for <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Knife Illustrated</span> magazine.

<p>Member Clint Thompson recently posted a poll of iKC members entitled "HELP! FELLOW iKC MEMBERS. I NEED YOUR HELP", in which he asked for iKC members' input on some research he is doing for <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Knife Illustrated</span> magazine. His questions included the following: </p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>"As a potential reader about firearms, knives, camping and other outdoor related subjects, what would a magazine cover have to have in order to attract you attention to pick it up? Once the magazine is in your hands, what articles listed on the cover would cause you to open it up and look inside? What subject matter would cause you to buy this magazine?"</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Several members responded to his poll and expressed their support for <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Knife Illustrated</span> adding a regular feature discussing the issues of American knife companies having their products made in foreign countries to stay competitive here and abroad, laws and taxes that are unfair to the American knife industry and consumers, and the politics involved in trying to solve these problems. After some discussion by several iKC members, member Tobias Gibson commented that: <em>"... it would be nice to have a moderated place where we could have a reasoned discussion on both global and local knife politics and laws", and "A moderated discussion group that would screen for personal attacks and off topic trades would be worthwhile. A similar section in Knives Illustrated could also be of interest, especially if it discussed local knife laws and legislative actions that will (have) an impact on the industry."</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">In response to the aforementioned discussion and and Tobias's comments specifically, I am proposing this new iKC Discussion: THE UGLY POLITICS OF KNIVES. Please give us your input.</p>
