NEWs FROM TUNA

Now, a new chapter has begun for Ryan and Courtney Daniels. "Daniels Family Knife Brands" is offering the exiting new Excelsior Knife Company line of knives directly crafted by the knife makers that also design them.

They also are continuing the very popular Tuna Valley Cutlery Co. knife brand, marketed towards the contemporary collector.

Thanks to everyone for all their support over the years, and we hope to talk with you in person at one of the many knife shows we attend throughout the year! We have many projects on the horizon, and hope you check here often to see what is coming next.

Comment by Luca Vignelli on February 12, 2012 at 18:28: Ryan, make sure you correct the spelling of your dealers websites! Poor Ken Mundhenk is listed under "blurcreekcutlery" and of course that link takes you nowhere fast!

You might have, I might have been snoozing!

Comment by Jan Carter on February 10, 2012 at 19:11: Hey,

How many of us are thinking of attending the Blade Show this year?

Comment by Luca Vignelli on February 10, 2012 at 7:23: Seeing as we know, from Ryan's recounting above, of his father Ken's predilection for the Sunfish pattern, and remembering the beautiful "Ken Daniels" cocobolo Sunfish that he made at GEC that came in the "Jack Daniels" like packaging, and now seeing that the first new Tuna Valley knife is a single bladed knife, I'd like to see these two design ideas united in a new single bladed Sunfish knife from Tuna Valley. Northwoods, a company GEC has worked with in the past, if I'm not mistaken, makes a similar knife called the Indian River Jack, but it's smaller and slimmer. Some of us love the Sunfish blade and some of us love single bladed knives where the hand feel is uninteruptedly smooth against the knife handle, without the secondary blade digging into the folds of our fingers, and these two loves could marry and produce a love child that would be the single bladed Sunfish. While I'm speaking of my dream knife I'll add that I also love the all steel versions, no brass no nickel silver, and would like to see that in the knife I propose here. Finally, I would rather see this knife handle kept pure and solid, without an ez-open cutout, again for the comfort and hand feel. So Daniels Family and Tuna Valley fans out there, what do you think?

Comment by Jan Carter on February 10, 2012 at 5:43: Tom,

I apologize...I thought I had told the GEC group to check this out. I will correct that immediatly. The lockback version of the 23 has been on the wanted list for awhile, maybe we will see that come through. Ryan has been off and on trying to keep us up on the happenings, cant wait to see whats next
