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
I won ! What are you talking about. I never win anything. I just bought a GEC #43 Frontier bone and a #43 orange camel bone knife. I just ordered a Buck 110 carbon steel drop point oak wood lock-back folder on EBAY. You are right , I am a winner. Kenny the one arm blade nut Baw-ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha !
Hi Jan I'm a new collector and I'm trying to learn a little more. I posted a few photos would like to learn proper cleaning and Restoration techniques do you have any suggestions
Thanks for the welcome! I have to get used to he site,have reviewed the rules and think their great. will take time to thank all who welcomed me lol. have busy schedule so I will look in at times and over time should get better at navigation and chat . this will be the first group I've joined so please be patient with me .
I was given these knives, I think they were made by Russel McNabb. I'm wondering how old they are and if they hold any value. Would you be able to tell me? I was

jan here we are again ready for the next club knife of 2019 what do you have up your sleeve for use this year ,and by the way put me in for one,I need to ask have you came across a first year knife for sale I'm looking for one
i fill sure you will find some far out knife for the club knife like last years knife that was out of this world so i will be waiting to see keep up the great work
Thanks for the add! Been collecting knives (or as my other half puts it, "sharp, pointy things") for a long time. No specialization, just whatever strikes my fancy. I have an L77 that belonged to my late granduncle, a WWII Army Air Corps veteran, and a number of switchblades (been collecting more of those since they were legalized in Michigan 2 years ago). Thinking of building a Mikov 241 "predator" switchblade from a kit in the near future, too.
Jan I don't get to the site much but I have always appreciated this fine forum and the good people here. Thanks for the birthday shout, much appreciated!
I went to PM you through iKC's Fb presence & discovered I've had to re-apply for Fb iKC. I've also noticed I am no longer able to PM through the iKC site. A member was able to PM me through our site ..but.. I could not respond. Then, I tried to PM you through our site to no avail.

I know it's a case centennial but the case emblem on the handle is gone and the tip is broke on one of the blades. It's a one dot red bone copperhead case xx centennial r6249. That's what it says on the blade

I may be 73 but I don't feel a day over 95.
