Hey folks, just thought I'd give you guys a heads up on a project I've been lucky enough to be a part of:
A number of history buffs and knife collectors in the Ellenville area (myself included as part of the carpentry division
), have gotten together to form the "Town of Wawarsing Historical and Knife Society" . We're actually in the fetal stage yet since we don't even have a building LOL. It just seemed like a shame that with all the knife history that took place in the immediate area over the past 100+ years, there was no place to record and show the results of this mecca of knife production. A good portion of the displays will be Schrade, but not all, there'll be Ulsters, NYK's, Waldens, Napanochs (this particular collection will knock your socks off!), Honk Falls, Grahamsville, Hudson Valley, Canal Street...you get the picture. LT is one of the big donators, and the VP as well, along with "Doc" Craft and a goodly number of other folks who's names I'm not going to post without a consent ( I'm just posting this for informational purposes right now). Here's a copy of a flyer Doc Craft had printed up for Napanoch Day handouts:

There'l be membership once everything's up and running, but in the meantime I'll keep you updated on our progress.
