December 2019 There Were 75 Tables Which Included Several Pretty Nice the Beginning Displays KNEWSLETTTER IN A KNUTSHELL 4 The Beginning 4 Display Making 4 Charter Members 4 Laguiole Knives 4 Application Form Our international membership is happily involved with “Anything that goes ‘cut’!” December 2019 There were 75 tables which included several pretty nice The Beginning displays. We had three Gerber folding knives, enhanced ibdennis with engraving on ivory micarta handles, presented in Someone recently asked me to recall and write the beginning a custom wood box. These were given to the three best of the Oregon Knife Collectors Association (OKCA). It was displays at the Show. The attendance was around 500 with 1975 when a group of knife minded people gathered to see if it a door admission of $1.00. was feasible to have a knife show on the West Coast. We had monthly meetings in the Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB) utilities basement here in Eugene, Oregon, once a month on Saturdays which was attended by Oregonians mostly. We called ourselves the “Emerald Empire Blade Collectors Association.” Long about the first of 1976, we modified our name to “Emerald Empire Knife Collectors.” I think this happened as most of the public had no idea what a “blade” was. The only knife shows that were available were in conjunction with gun shows held in the area. It was always a travel-to-a destination. The big shows were even more unavailable, greater distances. How about a show in our area was the question? Something like, ”If Mohammed can’t go to the mountain, then bring the mountain to Mohammed.” It was this drive that suggested that I would promote the interest of collectable cutlery and Wayne Goddard would promote the area of knifemaking. We talked about doing a two day Show, and a search began to locate a place to hold the event. Portland was the prime consideration; however distance for the organizer (me), and the high cost of the Portland facilities were discouraging. So it was decided to hold it in Eugene on May 15-16, 1976. It was also decided to change our name one more time to include the state of Oregon rather than the city or area. The Show was held at the Lane County Fairgrounds in the Pioneer Building. The Pioneer building was torn down in 1978. That May Show proved that we could make a Knife Show happen in Eugene. In September of 1976, we drew up a Charter and promoted the organization at a September gun show. I had capped out all my credit cards prior to the May 1976 Show and doing that for future shows was not something I wanted to do. ( I did get my monies back, but zero profit for me.)

Le nombre de couches et de pliages peut varier de plusieurs dizaines à plusieurs centaines, selon le rendu et les propriétés que l’on souhaite donner à la lame.

Sa sensibilité lui donne des qualités organiques qui transcendent la surface polie. Damascus steel is a congregate of ferrous steel layers (soft steel) and hard steel. The layers are lengthened and folded many times. The number of layers can vary from a few dozens to hundreds depending upon the type of Damascus blade one wants. Once processed with an acid treatment, Damascus steel retains the imprint of fire and hammer: a never-ending fascination to observe the reflections of light play off the polished surface. Der Begriff Damaszener Stahl (auch Damast genannt) bezeichnet einen Werkstoff aus einer oder mehrer Eisen-/ Stahlsorten.

  • October 2018 the Remington CHEF 7 and 8 Inch Knives Jim Pitblado Very Early in My Knife Collecting I Developed an Interest in Remington Kitchen Knives
    KNEWSLETTTER IN A KNUTSHELL 4 Remington Chef Knives 4 Valley River Inn 4 Cascara 4 Pacific Crest Ttrail 4 Two Not Seen 4 Membership application 4 France trip 4 2019 Show application Our international membership is happily involved with “Anything that goes ‘cut’!” October 2018 The Remington CHEF 7 and 8 inch Knives Jim Pitblado Very early in my knife collecting I developed an interest in Remington kitchen knives. I wrote an article about the Moby Dick kitchen knife and still have a few of these I use in the kitchen. This also included the display counter die cut card. I also collected a Remington kitchen knife display case full of larger kitchen knives which I passed on to my friend Rich. He was kind enough to return the Remington 7 inch CHEF knife to me at the 2017 OKCA Show, as I have always enjoyed its stylish look (Picture 1). I acquired this knife over 15 years ago at the Show and have yet to see another 7 inch or 8 inch CHEF knife in any condition. Needless to say I am still looking for an 8 inch one. If you browse through the Remington catalogues, the kitchen knife appears during the Dupont era; and, by 1939 and the C39 catalogue, the pages with pictures expanded from a few kitchen knives to 15 starting at Page 51 and ending at Page 65. Quite an expansion of models, sizes and groupings over a few years, for sure. It surprises me that we do not see more of these; but maybe there were so many models and variations purchasers could not make a decision on what to get.
