2009 Knifemakers Guild Show Pictures

Thanks for a great tour.
Do you think Gil popped the top on the bottle ?

Thanks,
Rudy

I suspect that wax seal has been severed with a very sharp knife and the bottle is now filled with tea.

LOL
I suspect the bottle is one hell of a prize in itself.
It makes a "useful" trophy.

That was Jerry Kochheiser of Alaskan Fossil Ivory (in Ohio). Phone 419-756-5121. I don't think they have a website or email. Most of what he had at the show was walrus and sea cow.

Thanks Mike , I'll give them a call tomorrow . I buy alot from Charlie Turnage on his site and also on ebay . I got some mammoth bone scales from him at the last NY show , that actually looked better than the ivory he had . Deep , rich colors . I wish he did carry walrus pieces , his prices are usually very good . Thanks again , Bill

Oh yeah! Stan Wilson is the cream of crop in my opinion. I don't think anybody does better fit and finish and his designs are amazing.
