Blade Show Update

WOW! Sensation overload!! That sums up my first day at the Blade Show. Over the top!



It is everything I hoped it would be.



Making my rounds. Established contact for us with Ka-Bar, Spyderco, Strider and some others. Got more to do today.



The tactical makers are all here and that knife is dominating the show. Seems everyone, including the "traditional" makers are offering some form of it. Not all, but quite a few. Meet a custom maker this morning who is… Continue

On my way to the Blade Show

Friday morning I'm on my way to my first Blade Show over in Atlanta. Tonight I feel like a kid having to go to bed on the night before Christmas. Been to quite a few knife shows over the years, but never been to the mother of- before. I can't wait. I'm gonna savor every moment.



Y'all watch over the community while I'm gone, OK? Remember our Neighborhood Watch Program. Also, help make sure you welcome any new members who join too. I know you'll make them feel right at home and show… Continue

We made the news!!

iKC made the news! I'm talking getting mentioned in a traditional offline knife publication. Yes Sir (figure of speech, there Ladies), we sure did....having Mark Zalesky, a friend and fellow iKC member as the editor, doesn't hurt either.



Mark was kind enough to plug our community in the current edition of Knife World. I must say, I have been a subscriber for many years and… Continue

Happenings in the Community- Fun Knife Topic!

Got a fun topic over in Knives, Knives and More Knives.

Let's roll out a big invitation to join us here at iKC

OK, fellow iKC community members, we need to reach out to a knife guy we want here.



I posted the story in this edition of Cutlery News Journal, so I won't reprint it here, other than to say, I ran on a very well respected knife guy out in the blogosphere, who needs to be posting his blogs here, where the knife collectors are.



Check out the story and then click over… Continue

You can tell the person by the knife he owns

Don't you just love all the different types of knives folks own? All you have to do is look around our community to see it is like Baskin Robbins Ice Cream flavors.



Each person collects what they like and I think you can tell a lot about the person by the knife he (or she) owns, just like someone's hands tell you a lot about that person.



I won't try to detail all the different personalities and preferences here in our community, but I do find it very interesting.… Continue

Just got word on Wayne Koons Surgery

Here's the message:



Good morning,



Wayne Koons came through his surgery with flying colors yesterday. The surgery lasted 4-1/2 hours and instead of a double by-pass, he had three by-passes completed. He spent the night in ICU and if all goes as planned he should be moved to a regular room today. He's at Baptist East Hospital in Memphis, TN and will hopefully be headed home for a full recovery in a few days.



You can forward your get well cards to NKCA, c/o…

iKC Update 5.7.09

Wow! What can I say? The last two days have been wild here at iKC.



If you just joined us- Welcome and I think if you take the time to connect with some new friends and knife discussions, you will love our community.



If you are an "oldtimer" member here (even though we've only been open for about three weeks), there is no doubt our heads are spinning.



When I started iKC I was all over it. I had a good feel for all that was going on and into… Continue

KNIFE IS GOOD!

We have a really good conversation going. Lynsie Johnson, one of our members, added a thought provoking topic for discussion- "Do you feel that a knife is like a tattoo?" While the topic might be viewed a little "different" for a "knife… Continue

ANNOUNCING THE iKC DAILY NEWS- COLLECTOR HISTORY IN THE MAKING!

A BLOGGING KNIFE COMMUNITY- HOW COOL IS THAT?!



A few years ago, when I started blogging at The News at ElephantToenails.com, I looked far and wide to find other folks blogging on knife topics. Not! Then over the last two years, I was able to find one about every 6 months- what's that about 4 or 5 now.



Almost every knife blog I was able to find was strictly a knife review. No interesting commentary, no… Continue
