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

The Community knives are on their way, lets have a little fun

The 2014 Community knives were sent priority, on the way to their new homes today :)  I have not posted a picture of any of them (haha).  I am excited that each of the handle materials have small variances in it, so no two will be exactly alike.  Donnie reviewed them all for me so I have not seen all of them either, BUT I WANT TO!!  So I am going to offer up a Queen Maroon handled Country Cousin knife for a photo contest prize.  This will run a little while because 4 knives are making their way to other parts of the world.

So here are the guidelines

Post a picture of your 2014 IKC Community knife with something unique to your area and enter it here.  Lets see how creative we can be with our own city, state or country

I will choose 3 impartial judges.  I think we run this for about a month, I want those going out of the country to show us theirs also.  Lets see if we can get every knife to show back up on here.  

Ready, set, SHOOT YOUR PICTURES!

Irmo, SC,  Home of the "OKRA STRUT".

History of the Okra Strut -

The Lake Murray-Irmo Woman’s Club was looking for a way to raise money to build a new library.  Their answer came in a 1973 WIS Radio broadcast.  Gene McKay, a personality on the morning show, had his imagination piqued by a small, downtown Irmo hardware store named The Ancient Irmese General Store.”What were these Ancient Irmese like?”, pondered McKay,  “Probably short people — a farming tribe who lived off okra!”

That October, a modest arts and crafts sale named the Okra Strut was held inside Seven Oaks Park.  The Woman’s Club began the long standing tradition of frying and selling okra.

It wasn’t until the sixth Okra Strut that the event was moved outdoors to downtown Irmo.  By December 1980, the slimy green veggie had given Irmo its first library on the corner of Harbison Boulevard and St. Andrews Road.


Today the festival is managed by a board of committee members appointed by the Irmo Town Council and we are proud to say, “we are the nation’s original celebration of Okra.” The festival is now a two day event featuring a street dance, parade, arts and crafts, rides and amusements, petting zoo, and lots of festival food.  Attendance for the celebration is estimated at 55,000 annually.Money raised by the festival is put back into the community through civic and school organizations, scholarships and improvements of public areas.

Okra Strut ! it's just amazing what you can learn on iKC.   Wish I was in a pub quiz team , Okra Strut would get them every time.

 lol.

This is Our knife sharing space with Wm. Scagels Shop Dogwood Nub in Fruitport, Michigan pretty much exactly as it looked the day he passed away.  Our CC knife looks right at home :-)  John  p.s. no copyright on the pictures I took them in 2004.  I now live across the state in Bay City but it's all about the heritage of knife excellence here in "Pure Michigan"
