      I love that Forge and Aubrac both use individual craftsmen and traditional methods. I've also seen some really cheap knives branded as Laguiole.

      I just got a new Kershaw as a gift, and I'm kinda really in love with it. My wife has the smaller pink version of it.

      Damn Tapatalk won't upload the pics, or I'd have 'em up.

                Thanks Derivative, that Sebenza is amazing. I can't believe I'd never heard of them. So sick!

                  I'm thinking of writing some Romantic poetry about the Sebenza…

                  "Cut this rope, the only way to my heart..."

                  You know, real sappy stuff... Sebenza =  😘

Both father and son worked closely thus the ancient forging methods and exceedingly high-level of detail that has epitomized the famed conventions of Japanese knife and sword making continues to flourish." 🙂

                                  Given the generally lackadaisical level of security by NYC area TSA employees, I'd say your odds aren't that bad, actually.

                                    Seriously? Pam nearly caused an international incident by taking a plastic cutlery knife through customs in her handbag, I thought we were off to Guantanamo Bay for a while.

                                      Just chuck it nice and deep in your plane's wing. Make sure it holds. Pull it back out afterwards. Oh: the pilot's not an 2nd option… And I will not make any jokes about pulling it out of the pilot...

                                        Interesting.  The last couple of times I went through Newark, they barely batted an eye at our extensive collection of semi-prohibited items.  Multiple bottles of formula, strollers, carseats, etc. went through with no issues.  We could have had anything in there.

                                          Actually, we've flown back from Newark once and you are correct, they could not be bothered to look at us either.

                                          JFK is a whole different ball park, there you are guilty until proven innocent. Interesting post script to that is that since we had Tommy I have found that Airport security staff are much nicer to us everywhere else we have been (Singapore, Tokyo, Kyoto, UAE, Qatar, Germany, Spain), everywhere except JFK.
