Addresses of Knifemakers

[craigos]

I just took a last minute trip to West Virginia and I thought it would be great if I could visit some custom knife makers or retailers as we drove through the state, but after several searches and looking in vain on the forum I found no "lists of custom knife makers or custom knife sellers by state."

There are forums here that are state oriented, but has anyone compiled or thought of beginning a forum as a directory/contact list for knifemakers by state and country?

Thanks,
Craig

Thank you for the information. It looks like a great book. I checked out Amazon books and you can preorder Knives 2005 for $16.09 (Free shipping now if you can find another book to bring your order to $25.

Also you can preview several page of an earlier edition just to get the feel for the book.

Thanks,
Craig

Thanks for that heads-up about the deal at Amazon. Unfortunately, in order to get free shipping, I had to order a book on woodcarving also.
