Granted, those geological formations are from the "empty quarter" of the state, but seems like they might be a good name for an LE Kershaw?
 
Brother, you are starting some really weird topics today.

To play a long a bit.. I always wondered how these kershaw names came about. I'm sure they're not all derived in similar fashion, but my guess is that they have a small council for that matter :p.

And for the Steens, at least partly because there was already a Steens hunting knife produced by another Oregon company that specializes primarily in multifunction pliers-based tools.
 
Most people don't know that Oregon has the world's largest inland swamp: the Malheur.

That was going to be what I had to add. Malheur is one giant swamp. Love it for the birds but look out for the mosquitos. How about something named after French Glen, Heart Mt., or Pete French for that matter?
 
I thought Oregon itself was the world's largest swamp. :rolleyes:

West of the Cascades it's pretty rainy though no swamps to speak of. The Malheur is in eastern Oregon though. Usually pretty dry, high desert, etc.. They've turned it into a bird refuge.
