OHIO KNIVES

Check out the general info section above.  Sue created this and we have been adding to it consistently.  It is some wonderful resource info.  

Yep Miss Jan, I have been reading some of Miss Sue's Knife History stories and I enjoy them. Thanks Miss Sue! For some reason most of the members of this group look so much nicer than some of the members of other groups...lol....Ya'll are doing a great job, ladies.

Looking forward to seeing some of the creative ladies at the Blade Show very soon

So How many of the folks here will be in attendance at the Blade show?  I want to set up an IKC meeting

Any tactical fans here?  Clint is asking for help on deciding what to place in his article

I want to wish all the "Mothers" in this group and in our club, a very happy "Mothers Day". Bless ya'll....Ya'll have the most important job in the world!

We must ask ourselves, "Is it better to give a lady a fish, or to teach the lady to fish"? Well, I don't have to ask my mother, she wants it caught, clean and cooked just fine. I hope all the Mothers out there get what ever they want, I'm sure they all should get a fair reward.

Thank you Robert.  I would have loved to have gone fishing today

Great Miss Jan, I hope all the Mothers had a great day today. Bless Ya'll.

I had a wonderful relaxing Mothers Day.  Donnie direction to me when I took him breakfast was go have a day for yourself, you deserve it.  So I did just that, did all the girlie things I don't seem to get as much time to do as I would like 

Ladies and gentlemen,

Do you fish, you family fish?   There is a fishing photo contest going on and the first and second prizes are knives.

Jan the day to do what you want.  Nice.

Well back to work and making plans for the Blade Show.  Cant wait to see everyone

Got a new pretty in pink today :).  Will take some pics and post it soon

Until last year I had collected for almost 20 years without having owned a pink knife.  And I was pretty stubborn about it also.  Nothing about bubba gum pink ever enticed me.  Then Great Eastern came out with my fav whittler pattern in a pink shell and I broke my stride. Been in my pocketbook since.  This week I received a gift of it's replacement for an EDC.  This little Kershaw is outstanding.  assisted opening, it flies right out and locks up tight.  I really like that it has a lock for when you are carrying it to keep it from opening unless you mean it to.  So here is my newest EDC

so here is my question, how many of us carry a pink knife?

Jan....
I know of one.

dont carry one, but do own a couple bubblegum Case!....lol

Sue,

Share the pinks with us please?  Why not carry one?  Do you carry one of your mini coke bottles?

come on Sue, share a pink with me

did a sneak peek at Sue's Pinks in her Photos.  Nice toothpicks!

Spent a little time doing some research on my newest pattern love.  The reason the cotton sampler blade is shaped the way it is?  The cutout is so that the buyer could wrap up some of the cotton strands and rub them on a hard object (like a board) to test the strength of the strands

6 more days.  Atlanta and grandbabies here we come

Well, we have had a generous dealer supplies us with some items to give away at the IKC meet and greet.  If you will be in Atlanta come on by at 4pm on Friday.  We will be beside the GEC/Daniels booth in the food court area

Some of my favorite folks in the knife world, Ms Dellana and her husband Van Barnett.  Just always welcoming , warm and have the greatest blade art!  Here is some knife jewelry for you Sue

By the way Dellana, Thanks for letting me flash the lights in your face LOL

Jan...

Thanks for taking the time to send us the pics.  They are great!

Green With Envy In Oklahoma

Clint,

Subscribed to KI yesterday, met Abe.  Wonderful deal going on at the show, nice folks.  Next year they need to send you here

Jan.....

Thanks for supporting KI.  Abe is a nice guy.  I know you two are having fun.  Be safe.

I met some wonderful folks at the Blade Show.  Many manufactures had women representatives this year.  One of them is Lindsey at CRKT.  She took a few moments to speak with me, exchange cards and agree to give us some insight on her position and CRKT.  I am awaiting a written response and will share it as soon as we get it.  This is a wonderful young lady that knows her product line and customers.

Jan...

Yes she is.  She is always a big help to me.

That is so cool, I love to see women in our hobby. Please don't let her forget, we will enjoy what she has to say. Before I get in trouble, our hobby, means for all, women, men and childern. I have been misunderstood before, just trying to explain what I mean...lol

ROFL @ Robert

It is quite all right Robert.  We knew what you meant.  Hey Clint...I lost my badge and it had Lindseys card in it.  Could you get her permission to give me her email address again?  I sent an email to her through the web site

Sure I will give her a call.

Thank you Clint!!

Not ignoring us folks, just waiting for the emails.  I am sure all the ladies had to get back to work but I know we will see them this week (I am pretty hard to ignore LOL)

I'd sure like to hear from the ladies, hey what's Dellana up to? She sure makes some pretty knives, I could look at them all day.

Robert,

The funniest thing happened with Ms Dellana.  We went out to dinner with the folks from GEC and when we were dropping them off at the hotel afterwards and guess who was just getting there to check in?  It was nice to see her before the hustle and bustle of the show.

Her latest is going to be a golden beauty.  I will ask her to to share it with us.

Sounds great, I love her knives, I can't wait to see it.

Check out the newest up and coming.  Have some more profiles coming in this week

Just wanted to take a moment to say thanks to everyone that inputs here.  Especially Ms. Sue, she shares a momumental amount of research with us

Have some time next week to speak with more of the Ladies in our favorite industry.  Will let you know what I find out about who....
