Ken Erickson Knives: A Retrospective

I like that a lot Ken. I love ebony on traditional knives. It just looks like it belongs. That's a pattern I don't believe I've been exposed to before. - Ed
 
I had never seen that pic before. Thank you for posting it. That is amazing.

Ed,

Here is one of my Juniors laying next to the Holly catalog(thanks MIke R.)
I think the Catalog is dated around 1915

Just a great straightforward Jack, Ken! All the proportions seem perfect!
Michigan Pen has a nice ring to it!
Don't ship it by Riverboat is my advice!:D
 
That pic of the knives is great as well as Kens' knife. Looks like a lot of Barlows and Wharncliffs. Very good working knives.
 
Ken,that is one sweet pattern :thumbup:! This one is great :thumbup:!

I almost missed this, Ken, that is a real beauty-it works in every way, especially with that ebony!!!....Tony
 
Ken, how about showing us you can do a more delicate knife just as well ?
The 4 blade Senator made about 100years ago in Britain, Germany and U.S.A. is my favorite pattern. These can be very dressy knives.
That's what I would like to see.

What an inspiration, finding old patterns that have survived shipwreck and rendering one:thumbup: Couldn't be more authentic!

That knife has presence, looks er, unsinkable:D
 
Very nice work, Ken. I think I like the second one a little better but would not turn away either. The stag next to the catalog is breathtaking too.

Roland,

Just beautiful and I like the way the new stamp turned out.
 
That story was very interesting. Looking though the pictures and seeing those knives was the icing on the cake. I really appreciate the effort involved in taking old patterns and doing your own interpretation of them. It's makes it just that much more interesting. Your work alone speaks for itself, but tying them into a story sets them even further apart.
