The Art Knives of Van Barnett & Dellana

David, IMO, you should keep making books such as these - it would seem that you have potential. ;)

(well done friend, well done)
 
Marcel,

I think that in this case I shall try to make your wishes come true!

Next year I shall be working on a new book (the 4th) in the series
on "Custom Knifemakers of the World", and a year later on a big
second volume similar to "The World of Art Knives".... :D

All the best,
David Darom (ddd)

Sounds good to me David:thumbup::cool::) Can you give us a clue on the next maker you are going to profile??

Ah, my friend, it will be about a the knife-related art of
one of the prominent artists in this field... Hint: JWE.

I'm sure you can guess.... :)

As with all of your books, I just can't wait for there to be another. But I'll look forward to this book with very special interest!

Best,

Well, Bob, it was easy for you, and I hope I can produce
a book that will be up to your critical standards regarding
the works of this artist...

And of course, you are invited to be my guest among its pages.... :D

All the best,

I hear you loud and clear. That artist/book will be a great addition to the series.

When the time comes, Marcel, I begin a new Thread
about this book... :)

For those who may have missed it, the August 2011 issue of BLADE
has a beautiful, fully illustrated 3 page review of my Van & Dellana's book,
written by Steve Shackeleford!

All the best,

Another excellent book. I picked up my copy at Blade and ended up having all 3 autograph it for me. Van actually came over to my table and introduced himself as he had never met another knifemaker by the name of Barnett:thumbup:
 
Stu just lent me his copy of the mag, and that article is great David. It's pretty neat that we're both in there, I'd say one of the big reasons mine got written in the first place was your books and the inspiration they imbued me with. I'm sure I'm not the only one who your books and encouragement affected in a significant way.
Thanks again for all you do!
 
sorry for the necrothreadia, but I finally got my copy of David's book and holy moly! It's wonderful!
Thanks for all you do David!

Well my friend, I suppose that because it was for you, it travelled
by bicycle post....
At least now you know how two kinds of folders are made, linerlocks
and lockbacks, as well as some other secrets of art knife making...

All the best,
David Darom
