Steve, I'll go back through my catalogs and find that grouping of 5 kits and let you know which catalog it was in. It was very recently and I have every catalog they've put out since I started collecting. I keep them for reference and research.
I have the Case Canoe wood kit. I had fun putting it together. Of course I'm 63 going on 12.
Those are neat. When I go to SMKW in July, I think I will get a couple.
There's quite a few places selling them. I just googled "wooden pocket knife kits"
Those kits are cool. I have a mini Trapper.
Good stuff. Wish I could have been there. A wood Stockman kit would be great!
Agreed! That was a great video showing the kits. Steve, I know SMKW recently showed 5 different kits or you could buy all 5 at a savings. Can't remember if they had a Stockman. We need more things like this for the kids to get interested and involved in knife collecting and making.
My day at SMKW ended with some time with the Case Collectors Club. Up to this point I had had such a fantastic day I could not imagine it getting any better, but it certainly did. This quickly became the highlight as I watched the roundtable and the fun they had in listening to Lisa Bosier-Miller tell a story as they passed their knives to right or left based on words in the story. Then this generous, knife loving group of folks came out to the museum and proceeded to donate glass panels for the museum displays in memory of their loved one and friends gone. Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. Not just on behalf of the museum but from a lady that is more proud today than ever to belong to such a group
I have a video of the presidents drawing the knife of day winner and I will place it here. Just cant upload it here on this tiny laptop. But congratulations to Goose for being the winner of the day
A great morning of meeting folks, was followed by some great visiting time. You know it never ceases to amaze me that so many people in the knife world recognize the need for bringing the next 2 or 3 generations into our hobby. This company was started by a dad making a Christmas present for his son, something they could do together. A few short months later he was unemployed and looking for a way to make some money to support his family so he began to produce them. This year they introduced a trapper pattern in a numbered version, and short run off 100 in the numbered series. For the Parents and Grandparents among us...I encourage you to get a few of these. Spend some fun time with your loved ones building one and teaching how a knife is built and I think it is a great way to start the safety conversation.
