iKC, a unique community

A few months ago, a friend did a blog post about our community. I actually have it saved and revisit it often.

Recently, I asked another friend if her son could join us on here. He is mid teens, a knife enthusiast and just an all around young gentleman.  

Our community is informative, friendly and respectful. Telling Mom about this reminded of the saved post. I do not think I say Thank you to each and everyone of you near enough for creating and sustaining such a wonderful…

2012 is here

As we get deeper into the year I want to start having some thoughts in place for the 2012 iKC knife.  I have 2 immediate questions

A very Knife Valentine's Day

With Valentines Day on the horizon, I thought I would share a few thoughts with some of you.

I often have knife buddies that say “I wish my wife were involved with my hobby”. So how many of you have tried to involve your better half and what better day of the year to try.

A few suggestions you say?

How about this, instead of a dozen overpriced VDay roses, a rose bush and a small pruning knife. Want a little more personal, get the knife now…have your jeweler engrave I…
