I appreciate all the members who have joined this group and shown their support. I'm headed out in the morning to Dalton for the knife show and then board meeting later tomorrow nite. More to come!

Thank you Jim. Come heck or high water we'll turn this baby around.

I will be putting in the mail tomorrow my dues for last year & this year. I have been thinking about this since I got the letter last week from Leroy Mathews and seeing Scott becoming a Director. I can remember when the NKCA was the backbone of our hobby and have watched its demise. Perhaps with iKC members  and Scotts participation it can become a good organization again.

Thanks to all for their encouragement for me and the NKCA. I'm positive if we all renew our commitment to this organization it will get back on track. If I have anything to do with it- we will get the leadership this assoc. needs to rally the troops back like it had where we are all working to accomplish the goals to meet the needs of our membership and grow.
Many of you have posted specific questions and I'll try to comment back on your individual profile page.
Many of you have posted questions too about joining and I'll add some info here to help too. Right now, however, you can go to their website and join. http://www.nkcaknife.org/
But I'll be back with additional info.

  This is what the NKCA needs is  member involvement  and strong leadership. Glad that Scott  and Leroy Matthews  have stepped up to move the NKCA foward. If  any one would like to join the NKCA  just go to their web site and sign up . You can pay on line with pay-pal or mail it in. We need your support .

Thanks Scott, I have enjoyed the IKCA but feel the NKCA is a better fit for me! I think this will be fun!

Many thanks for inviting me Scott. If it is one thing I think we need to get rid off, it is the thought that knife collectors are "hoarders".

For obvious reasons this illness has been spread to label even mere hobby collecting, I'm not sure if this is the case in America though since your constitution has a completely different law regarding guns and knives.

 

What the unbaptized doesn't know is that there is only a tiny percentage that gets "swallowed" up by their interest and reaches the straw that breaks the camel back. Often they are psychologically labile or with previous sicknesses and such. This is not the average knife collectors.

 

In Sweden they would for example ask you who you were going to stab with the penknife you always carry on you to clean and trim your nails - it's ridiculous!

In any case I understand it's all business here and there won't be much time over for international countries (we need to save the foundation and get it back up in tip-top shape first.)

 

I know it's personal and all with knife clubs and that some people wants to see some people at positions more but there are countless examples of people pushing for him/her only because it's a friend, relative, girlfriend or lover or whatever.

 

Scott is a perfect example of how anyone in a "key" position should act and it's no surprise that you're being needed by organisations :)
