One of my knives in Knives 2015

Thanks guys. I am really stoked to get back into the shop.

Totally awesome, Patrice!!! Definitely a worthy knife for such an esteemed publication.


I still haven't managed to get my hands on a copy of this, either. Better get off my butt!!!

Get online version

So nice to not have 30 years of BLADE in boxes any more

Ooops my bad I see this was "Knives" not Blade.

I wonder if they have an PDF version as well?

Congratulations. How'about that, hard work, blood, sweat and tears still pays off in America.

That knife is 100% deserving of that spotlight. It's still one of my favourite fixed blades ever. From the shape, to the hardening line to the inlay in the blade to the handle. Everything just screams COOL.

Congrats on that welldeserved pat on the back from the people at Blade Magazine.

 

[Patrice Lemée]

Thanks again for such great compliments guys. Coming from my pears it means the world to me.

It makes me want to get back into the shop so bad but not much time these days.

About one more year until I can do it fulltime. :thumbup:

Hello Pat,

I'm so delighted to see the fabulous Inquisitor displayed/published so prominently! It is an absolutely outstanding piece in my collection. Your inspiration for this Fine Art knife was, as you mentioned, from the visual appeal of old flint lock pistols. Fabulous work Pat, over-the-top beautiful!!
Thank you so much for all you do!!

Robert

I finally got around to ordering my yearly copy of KNIVES. I sure was surprise when I came to page 127 and saw one of my knives there, the Inquisitor. Talk about a great feeling. It seems not so long ago that I bought my first copy (before I started making knives) and thought “Sure wish I could do that”. Well looks like I am.

And after closing and opening the book at page 127 about a dozen times to make sure I wasn't imagining things, I decide to start over and what do I find on the FIRST page of the book, the Inquisitor again. Doesn't get any better than this. :thumbup:

A big thanks to Joe Kertzman for making this aspiring maker very happy. :thumbup:

I know that this might not be a big deal for everyone and is only a small step in a knifemaking career. But it's a big deal to me and I felt like sharing my happiness with all my friends here who've helped and supported me all these years. Thanks a bunch. :thumbup:

Now hopefully onto even better things...
