BLADE MAGAZINE REVIEW (09/2004 Edition)
SEPTEMBER 2004 EDITION : ON NEWSTANDS

Data: Pages 124
Price $4.99 US/$6.99 CA


What more fitting way to open up our new Knife Network industry publication reviews than with a real bang?

In the upcoming September edition of BLADE Magazine, Knife Network member Steven Licata, and his recent incident with the New Jersey media, is nicely exposed for the mess that it caused.

Blade magazine writer and editor, Steve Shackleford, took the opportunity to blast the heck out of the local television media for their obvious case of knife phobia, resulting in character assasination. It was a well done article by Steve and shows how powerful people in the knife industry came together in support for the rights of our community member when his rights were being violated.

Steven posted this to our forums on the day the incident occurred and we've been discussing and debating the issue with those involved. This is the thread that Steven started back in May when he logged in to let us know what was happening, as it happened. With 3600 views and 6 pages of replies, obviously Knife Network members have strong feelings about this assault. You think you've had a bad day in the knife business, read from Steven himself about the events that occurred Current Forum Post

Other great articles are found in this edition. The article on Kershaw's new facility, By Dexter Ewing, was a great read. You should check out their new facility in this edition. It is impressive! An article by Knife Network member, Don Guild, on the amazing work of knife maker Don Bell, is an awesome read and is full of eye-candy images of Mr. Bell's incredible work (worth the price of the magazine). We were also pleased to see the coverage given to Knife Network member, Gary Riner's Fibermascus products. Of course, we've been leading that charge for over a year! Way to go, Gary!
