I don't know much about computers but this list of "knife of the weeks" is a really great reference tool. Could it be brought to the top or have a permanent place on the site so you could easily access this material? Just an thought. Thanks

Something might be in the works to make this permanent here on the forum.

Tom, This whole thread is great, and I can't tell everyone how happy I am with it. Really great info and pics. I like what you did giving all the models there own links in plain English. But I noticed tonight that when I click on the RMK #8 link I am getting model #7 info. Hope I didn't miss a post and am repeating old info.

Joshua, no you are not doing anything wrong. I just tried to access the Model 8 thread too and got the Model 7 info. I also tried the model 13 and it repeats the model 12. I thought when we did the model 12 it was split between the smaller model 12's and then we did the 12-11 and 12-13's? Dan Snyder RKS #5537

Thanks Ron, up and running. I do have one question: I believe the Model 12 knife of the week was split, didn't we do a second Model 12 knife of the week for the Smithsonians ans Raymond Thorps? If so, is there away to get that one up too? Thanks, Dan Snyder RKS #5537

My understanding is that the "Knife Of The Week" idea was initiated on the old forum by Sheldon Wickersham. Regardless of how RKS forum members feel about him, it is appropriate to acknowledge this.
More importantly, with regard to the "Knife Of The Week" threads on this forum, we should think of them as a community effort. I personally find them to be an incredible resource. For example, when I get the "bug" for a particular Randall knife model, one of the first things I do is to explore these threads to see examples of the knife with various options. And, once I obtain one of these knives, I make an effort to contribute to this community effort by posting photos of my specimen, in the hopes that it benefits others on the forum.

Ken,
Your understanding is incorrect. You should confer with your source. It was Ron Mathews not Sheldon Wickersham that had the thread on the other forum. I started The Knife Of The Week thread with Ron and Sheldon's blessing on this forum.
Let your head clear a little more next time and get your facts straight.
I have been told by sellers and collectors that they appreciate my efforts to make this thread preeminent as far as an educational tool for contemporary knife collecting. Just as Jim Parker's "This old Randall" for earlier models.
Kevin

This program was suggested and started by Kevin Lough. This program will be continually posted by Jess Egnew in the future. Thank you Kevin for the original idea and thank you Jesse for continuing same. Thanks also to Thomas Welch for his input to this project. --- Rhett Stidham
And it is indisputable that we all keep it going with photos and descriptions of the exquisite examples of American made craftsmanship which we admire, collect, use, give as gifts, treasure, and pass along as family heirlooms.

Thank you, Doug. And, thank you, Kevin, for pointing out that Ron was also involved in this on the other forum, and no doubt others were involved, too. Thank you, too, for carrying this idea over to this forum. My main point, though, was the second paragraph, and Doug's post reinforces the idea that it was intended to convey, specifically the "community" aspect of these and other forum threads: And it is indisputable that we all keep it going with photos and descriptions of the exquisite examples of American made craftsmanship which we admire, collect, use, give as gifts, treasure, and pass along as family heirlooms.

Kevin is a Brother & a Friend to me & since i can't respond in the "bad" lounge, were we now know what the limit is there! Another thing to point out is that most if not all the folks mentioned above who started this thread, here or else where, no longer post or are not allowed to post here at RKS anymore! Yep, be gone.
As the beginning of this & several other Good threads read: Knives of the week Model’s #1-#27 by Kevin Lough
maybe we should add the following.....Kevin was banned for life for being human. Guess the old saying of, "it's all in who you know", is true!
Be Careful Lunde........you've been starting a lot of good threads here too! Hate to see ya become a "second paragraph"!
See Ya, Chief

Figured as they aren't ordered the same that maybe they should be separated. It's easy to look at it if you know the difference but might confuse others. Just curious.
