I don't know either. I have notes sent out to George and the owner of the Tschagers to find out. I usually get this info ahead of time, but not on these.

Thanks, guys.

Upon reflexion, art nouveau, not art deco.

In many cases, Joss, it is Valerio Peli (Italy) who engraves
Reinhard Tschager's knives.

Its all in my books...

All the best,

It's been a while. Let's look at the beauty of American classic slipjoints:

This is an older piece, that also uses the tortoise shell as the canvas for the artist.

The Italian's have a history of style and passion. It shows.

Not intimidated whatsoever by these newcomers:

And, closing shots of alluring beauty:

I've been working like crazy in the past few weeks with my clients. Above is why.

I don't even know where to start. Thats some REALLY high quality stuff right there. Great engraving and interesting/beautiful handle materials.

**Marcel54** · 03-12-2010, 09:24 AM

Coop, you've been a busy boy...but it sure is rewarding. Great knives all.

All I can say is WOW

So many beautiful knives and images.

A display such as this thread almost makes one wonder if we are experiencing a renaissance of custom knives.

**RogerP** · 03-12-2010, 01:43 PM

Fantastic knives and images. That little S.R. Johnson boot knife is to die for.

^^^ Thanks David, much appreciated.

I knew you would appreciate Edmund's and Jere's work.

Yes, all of my clients find that an enticing set of images of their knives stir our emotions, sometimes to the point of picking up the phone to enquire further.

I have a number of portfolio shots from makers I will also post soon.

And then the 185 images of Italian auto stillettos that haven't been shown....

It's all good.

Thanks to ALL for viewing.

fantastic pictures, Coop is it possible to post a picture on another website, like the spyderco forum?
I would like to post the Anso custom that forms the basis for the 2010 Anso Zulu.

Hi Jim,

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but if you are asking to show one of these photos somewhere else, go ahead. Please use my link and keep the credit line intact. That's all.

Thanks!
