Looks good Jan, I think that I would like one of those.
Hey you never know, it could happen very easily.
Knife World was very good when Houston Price was editor, and I believe he is still active.
Luca, Great to hear you like the new single blade.
We dont subscribe to any of the knife magazines, pick a few up here and there but no monthly. I will say that Knife World is the one I prefer though.
Thats great to hear Luca, I knew you would be happy as soon it came out. It looks better to me than the original, I still don't want one though. The EO is actually something I like about the new knife but, I can understand your wants.
Just received the new single bladed Whaler and it feels GREAT in hand without the secondary blade! I sort of wish they hadn't made it with the EZ Open cutout in the handle, but for the comfort in hand it is a trade off I can live with.
Now I'm just hoping that the next time they put some #36 Sunfish into production that thay will make some single blade versions of the knife as well, abnd without the EZ Open cutout!
I've never paid attention to any of the knife magazines, but do like Knife World quite a bit. It's primarilly about traditional pocket knives, so it appeals to me. At one time they offered free trial subscriptions.
I never understood the old guy with the sword, to me it just seemed like spot filler. They never got into traditional knives like I like, they seemed to lean towards custom and tactical. I can't afford custom and I can't stand tactical.
Tom, we here at IKnife should make a monthly magazine. With pics and reviews, I think it could be great. But, I'm just talking of course, it would take a lot to get it done. Instead of stupid sword talk we could have some fine pocket cutlery in action. Who's in? : )
I don't want to bash them too much but between the lack of professionalism with the GEC ads and products and the fact that the mag devotes 5 pages or so every month to some old guy wielding a sword I can't help it. The swords are ok I suppose - but what gives with father time? The guy may be one bad you know what but show pics of the blades not some old guy (like me) who could be an AARP spokesman! They'd sell more swords with someone who looks like Conan the Barbarian or his female counterpart Sheena. I subscribe to Blade also and am starting to prefer it over KI. Sorry KI you may be KIA....
Wow, thats hard to believe. You would think that maybe they would put a little more work into this, it's good to have the word spread, but really. Nothing sales a knife like a good pic, I think your right about dropping the ball.
I'm not a member anymore, but I was at onetime a member.
