The World of Art Knives Hardcover – Deluxe Edition

The World of Art Knives Hardcover – Deluxe Edition

The art and design of handmade knives as of 2010 has reached a level where imagination, technology and artistic capabilities intermingle to produce true masterpieces. This book is a stand-alone volume devoted to the wondrous world of modern custom handcrafted knives and to all those who make that world possible. It was created to honor the gifted knifemakers as well as the knife collectors who lovingly promote this art around the world. The author has presented here a detailed, fully illustrated study, exhibiting more than 520 of some of the most sought after modern knife art creations. Many of the knives displayed here were hidden from the public eye in world-class custom knife collections throughout Europe and the USA. These private collections, now displayed here were slowly, carefully and thoughtfully accumulated over the years, each collector in his own way; following his personal love and passion for works of contemporary sharp art worthy of any major museum. The author also presents in-depth profiles of several greatly admired custom knifemakers of this era, telling their story and displaying their amazing knife art in exhibition quality, laboriously created, full color composite illustrations. This is the 7th book Dr. David Darom created about art and design in modern custom knives.

About K & G Stabilizing Services

Why stabilize with K & G?
K & G is the leader in the industry when it comes to stabilizing with over 34 years of experience. We are the original custom stabilizers for the knife industry. K & G has two different chemical solutions to stabilize with depending on the hardness/denseness of your material. A thinner solution is used to ensure penetration on materials such as ivory, horn, stag, bone and any hard or oily woods. Our thicker solution is used on woods that are softer and less dense. The thicker solution will make your original piece of wood double or nearly double in weight therefore providing a more durable piece of material to work with while bringing out the true luster of the figure in your wood. K & G’s process is done under pressure up to 4000lbs. This ensures full penetration of your wood/material. After your wood/material has been impregnated it will be cured for at least 24 hours. At this point your wood/material can be worked on whether it is a knife handle or some other application.
