About Me
My Husband Donnie and I live in Hiawassee GA. I was Blessed to have found iKC and became the owner in October of 2012. I believe all knife collectors are created equal, no matter what type they collect. iKC brings a different direction to knife collecting in my opinion, you may not personally like something or have an issue with a particular company. But respect is a substantial aspect of what we are about. I have a strong faith and believe everyone is entitled to theirs.
Interests
History, fishing, Diving, knife collecting and about a billion other things LOL. My main interest these days is iKC and bringing the future generations into knife collecting.
Other Hobbies
there are other hobbies? OK, I found one! Watching my husband learn to build knives

    Hi Jan, OK - this is a crazy idea - but what about an IKC trip to Cutleries. Members could meet at a designated spot and ride together to cutleries in PA and NY or wherever. Maybe Mon-Fri to visit working cutleries. Just a thought.

    Miss Jan, I started a little contest in the Discussion Outdoor Adventures for Spring 2014. Anyone posting a picture or a story get's a chance. The contest is in my Outdoor group, for the month of May.

      I'll mail you the knife and let you draw a winner at the end of May. I hope it's not to much trouble for you. I think it will be fun and help get members active. Thanks Rob.

  • J.J. Smith III

    Thanks for the day wishes guys.

    Loved the pic of Case.  Did he get a shot do bourbon too?

    Here's me and Kaylin, on the road today.  I think that I kinda look like Case here...

    Hi Miss Jan & Donnie, it is getting close to the end of May and my little contest. I wanted you to draw a lucky winner. I just wanted you to know that, Howard Reynolds and Thomas Bennett, mint to enter in the right place but instead, started a new discussion. They thought, they were posting in the right spot. I was hoping, that you would let them be entered in the contest.

      I also forgot about the shipping cost. Let me know the cost and I'll send you some stamp money. Thank Ya'll for everything, your good buddy, Rob.

  • Tom Peterson

    Jan,

    Thanks for your kind words on my knife/knives! I need to work a little harder in the shop and elsewhere and actually try to sell a few knives! I see that Donnie is doing pretty well with his knives. He is a few steps ahead of me with his knowledge of forging. I am still doing blanks and stock removal.

    You all take care. We have to get together some time when you and Donnie are up this way!

    Jan,  For me Christmas came early this year.   I received a package with a community knife, a Colonel Coon stockman, an iKnife coffee cup and a pocket magnifier.  What a great surprise.  I had a really good time drinking coffee from my new cup while inspecting my new knives.   Thank you. Jim
