2010 New Steel

Man oh man! 2010's first quarter is pretty much "history"...and now the big boys are releasing their new knife models. There are some really cool production knives hitting the market right now! Particularly from Benchmade and Spyderco. If you've checked out my page recently, you've seen photos of the new Benchmade 941 Onslaught and Bone Collector knives. Just yesterday, I received my new Spyderco Endura 4 with the gray FRN handle scales and full flat-ground blade. Talk about smoking cool! Cool… Continue

Re-Blood Moon

July issue of Tactical Knives has a great artical on the Blood Moon Knife and about who's going to be in the Expendables movie. I talked with someone at Fehrman Knives (when I bought the Blood Moon), I think it was Eric Fehrman, and he stated the movie was put back to a later date.
I hope its going to be good because with all the headliners, (I counted seven), movies tend to be....well not up to specs so to speak. Better grab an issue!

Sticky Pine Group

Some of the great knife makers here at iKC are making knives with handles of a very rare "Sticky Pine" wood that came to my attention recently. The wood comes from a 300+ year old pine that was cut in the year 1900 then the stump languished in a seasonally wet swamp for 110 years more until it was harvested last year. It has about as much resin as any specimen ever found. If you search the forum for "sticky pine" you can see some of… Continue

How I got into knives

I bet everyone has their own stories about how they got into knives, and from what I have heard it usually starts with "I got my first knife when I was 6", etc. Surprisingly, I didn't gain interests in knives until this past fall.

I go to school in Rochester, New York and a good friend of mine always EDCed a Spyderco of some sort. Some days he would rock out the Delica Foliage Green G10 and sometimes he would carry the discontiuned Spur fully serrated. I never understand…

Blood Moon

New movie comming out in April with all star cast headed by Sylvester Stallone called The Expendables. One good thing will be (Hopefully), that we will be seeing a new knife, just like in all of Stallone's movies, and is made by Fehrman Knives. Everyone can see it at www.fehrmanknives.com. Heh might as well get a collectors item now!

In Memoriam 2010 iKnife Collector Club Knife Update

Talked to A. G. Russell the other day and he said our knives should be in next month. I've emailed you who have reserved one and a few of you have yet to respond with your address, so if you let me know you wanted one and didn't get my email, please contact me at scott@iknifecollector.com

I ordered a few extra if any of the new members who joined since I took the order want one. It is a modern- day JUMBO Sunfish, as A. G. calls it.

In Memoriam NKCA Knife Show in Dalton, Ga this weekend

Due to contraints on my schedule I don't get to many knife shows during the year, but this weekend so far my schedule is working out to go.

When I first started collecting knives, I just didn't get it. No, I didn't get knife shows- not at all.

Honestly, I just thought they were for a bunch of old timers who traded knives among themselves.

But, I gave them a try- and got…

In Memoriam I'm here- just holed up in my office

If you've been a member here at iKC for very long you've probably noticed the blog post feed of Cutlery News Journal piped into our community's homepage. That's my personal collector's blog I've written for about a year and a half now. Well, got some changes coming down the pike that I'm pretty excited about, and I think you'll like them too.

If you've not seen me out roaming the streets of iKC over the last couple…

A Name By Any Other....

I recently had a conversation with a constable during the Winter Olympics, and things naturally got around to knives. After going through the aspects of form versus function, the black and white of certain grey areas, we got around to the idea of the knife as a defensive tool. This chiefly revolved around the idea of the knife being used for Self-Defence, which I contended was a misnomer, and that what people "really" meant was… Continue
