September 2019 The Anvil'3 Horn A Publication of the Arizona Artist Blacksmith Association Issue No. 200 September 2019 Abstract sculpture made by Fredric Crist during his demonstration at NAU in July. President's Message We just had a great hammer-in in Flagstaff at the NAU Sculpture Studio with a great instructor Fred Crist! I hope you didn’t miss it, Fred is truly a talented artist and human being! If you have been following ABANA or some other blacksmiths in social media lately, you may have seen some talk about Ellen Durkan and the controversy of her art being publicized in the Anvil’s Ring. I’m not here to pass judgement on anyone involved, but I do want to say a couple things. As an association that has art in our name, we should be open to viewing all forms of art as long as it is still tasteful (i.e. not pornographic, which Ellen’s wasn’t). Art should push your views and make you feel something. Sometimes art makes you uncomfortable, sometimes it makes you happy. Now on another hand, I see a lot of talk about how ABANA or even AABA are stuck in their “old ways”. Whether that’s true or not, one thing you can do is volunteer and make a difference. If there is something you don’t like, speak up and let us know. There’s plenty of ways to help. In everything you do in life, you get out what you put in. The friendships and the knowledge that this group has brought to my life personally is immeasurable. I wouldn’t have that if I didn’t attend as many demos or board meetings or sat down and talked with other members for hours on end in their own shop. I want every member to experience that. Some of those conversations are priceless. All it takes is stepping forward and saying hi or reaching out a helping hand! I look forward to seeing all of you in September in Camp Verde!

Celeste Flores, who was our demonstrator in September 2017, participated in these smelts and narrated this video. This video was filmed over six smelts between January and May 2019. The smelted iron was used to build a piece which was auctioned off at The Crucible's 20th Anniversary party. This video was very well done.

Our demonstrator was Frederic Crist who spent several years at the Samuel Yellin studio in Philadelphia before forming his own partnership and moving to Virginia. Fred spend most of the day creating a small abstract sculpture. He started outwith a piece of leaf spring and hot-split the basic pattern that he would work with. He likes to use a lot of compound curves. He emphasized that in this kind of sculpture, you should keep the curves smooth. Our own Ronald Wicklund wielded the torch to localize the heat for Fred so he could get the bends where and how he wanted them. After finishing the sculpture, Fred demonstrated how to make a rose out of a single piece of 5/8" round steel.

  • 2 How Easily We Take Things for Granted. So Familiar Is the Victorinox
    Collecting | 79 Swiss Army Style 2 How easily we take things for granted. So familiar is the Victorinox Swiss Army emblem that we regard it as much a part of life as our favourite newspaper, the NHS or the Royal Mail. And if we’re honest, we have to admit we don’t really know that much about them. So let’s start with a bombshell: one out of every five Swiss watches sold in the USA – the largest market in the world – is made by Victorinox. Ken Kessler 80 | Brands Brands | 81 Yes: 20 percent of that country’s entire consumption. Need more? Victorinox is the third largest exporter of Swiss watches after Swatch and Tissot. They sell 25 million knives a year. In the company’s nearly-125-year history, not one single employee has been laid off because of recession or a sales downturn. Sales downturn? Huh? As the previous CEO, Sue Rechner, told me in early 2006, the atrocity of 11 September 2001 caused ‘… a decline of approximately 30%. A major portion of the decline was attributed to the changes in airline policy which Shocking any preconceived significantly affected the duty-free notions about its validity business behind security gates.’ And as the company found out, travellers who (Above) Dive Master 500 has an ETA 2896 self-winding movement with a 42-hour power reserve.

    GLOBAL Family Site Map HOME Introduction Tradition Products Sharpening Prole CATRA's Report Registration Warning HOME » CATRA's Report TESTING OF KNIVES FOR SHARPNESS AND PERFORMANCE Introduction Until fairly recently, kitchen knife and blade producers all over the world could make claims that their knives were the sharpest, or the best. Nobody could contradict these statements as there was no objective way of determining sharpness and performance. Test reporter Mr. GLOBAL Mino Tsuchida Blade Cutting Testing Machine by C.A.T.R.A. C.A.T.R.A., the Cutlery and Allied Trades Research Association based in Sheeld, England, developed a machine which can objectively test and measure the sharpness and durability of knife blades. C.A.T.R.A., the Cutlery and Allied Trades Research Association based in Sheeld, England, developed a machine which can objectively test and measure the sharpness and durability of knife blades. Many organizations currently send knife samples to them for testing and evaluation. We, at GLOBAL, now possess two of these machines which are used to test and monitor the performance of GLOBAL knives to keep the highest quality at all times. The tests are conducted twice: once after the blade sharpening process at our factory and the second time at our export department before overseas shipment. By this means we can obtain undeniable objective information on the relative sharpness and performance of our knives, as produced by our factory, and after re-sharpening by various methods. Methodology The knife is xed in the machine and the blade is mounted in a position with the edge vertical.
