AKI photo's

[SharpByCoop]

OK, for all of you that just *might* be interested in this venue, I have a number of knife photo's finished with more as I get to them. These images take time, as you will see.

Just as important (or even more so...) are the people involved. I include a link to go over all the pics I took. I will add captions as time goes on, but for now you will just have to guess.

Here's a few pics to whet your appetite:

Van Barnett dagger

Van Barnett Persian

Kaj Embretsen dagger

Kaj Embretsen single-blade folder

Kaj Embretsen double-blade folder

Tim Hancock - 'Hancock Bowie'

And here is a link to visit my complete album, including the show and people pics. You can see Moran's, Loveless, Walker, etc, but at a distance. That's the best I could do. The people are *most* intriguing as is the setup.

You may even know of few of these knuckleheads!

Thanks Coop. I am going to need those captions. I know quite a few of the people, but not all.

The Kaj Embretsen are my favorite, though even the Van Barnett is awesome (I don't like his stuff usually...)

My chin is all scraped up from my jaw hitting the ground after viewing that Hancock bowie!

Thanks and congratulations Coop!

Great to see some good friends and awesome work in those pics.

That Hancock Bowie would look even better if it were mine.

747,
Do you know how much the Hancock Bowie sold for?

 

[SharpByCoop]

Regrettably, this one went home with Tim. The only one. That said, it is STILL up for grabs. (I am certain it was upwards of 3k though..)

Thanks for the peak, Coop. That Tim Hancock bowie is a beauty.

 

[RWS]

Thanks, 747.
Hard to believe that someone didn't get that.

 

[Keith Montgomery]

So Coop, you actually met Tim Herman and lived to tell about it; amazing.

More pics have been added to the display, as I have been working on them. Plus, I added comments and descriptions to the pictures of the show and people to make some sense out of it all.

If THIS shot doesn't give you a good idea of what was presented there--then I'm a monkey's uncle...!

I have been experimenting with some different layouts. What works and what doesn't? I'll listen.
