I seem to be always breaking BIA rules Irma... (795 hits)

But I wanted to show you this custom knife made for me by my son. It's a Green River Hunter, one I've wanted for 40 years. The blade is commonly called Damascus but in modern parlance is known as pattern welded. The handle is Cocobolo.

your Son must be very talented

Knives --- African Americans generally in old Stereotypical times, carried switchBLADES

so no this is NOT necessarily breaking the BIA RULES.......in my opinion.......

as for the 'blackHalf'---she uses my Name in her Titles --- breaking BIA RULES...

in Fact, I also received a gift from a Guatemalan young man who gave me some Toreador Machetes with Cocobolo handles----they hang in my office............

Thanks Robert. I asked my son where the Cocobolo came from and he wasn't sure. He said he thought South America, now I know.

Irma, I tried finding that H2 show and ended up watching a program about the other Stonehenge type structures found in various parts of the world.

Yeah the program was the one on H2 ancient aliens. I went to bed after I watched it so I'll look some more for the one on swords. I'm easily distracted.

During the days of the mountain men (roughly 1820-1850) there was an annual rendezvous on the Green River in Wyoming where the whites and the Indians met to trade.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_Green_R...

The Green River knife was one of the standard trade items. It's design is such that it's very efficient for skinning and gutting animals, cutting steaks and roasts and for other common frontier uses.

But those knives weren't made with the pattern welded steel and tropical hardwood my son used. They were much more economical produced. One characteristic of pattern welded steel is because it's produced by making very thin layers of different types of steel, with different hardnesses, it creates a microscopic serration on the blade edge - very sharp.

The Nok culture appeared in Nigeria around 1000 BC and vanished under unknown circumstances around 300 AD in the region of West Africa. This region lies in Northern and Central Nigeria. Its social system is thought to have been highly advanced. The Nok culture was considered to be the earliest sub-Saharan producer of life-sized Terracotta. It has been suggested that the Nok culture eventually evolved into the later Yoruba Culture of Ife based on similarities seen in the artwork from these two cultures. [1] [2]

The refinement of this culture is attested to by the image of a Nok dignitary at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. The dignitary is portrayed wearing a "shepherds crook" ([3], [4]). The dignitary is also portrayed sitting with flared nostrils, and an open mouth suggesting performance. Other images show figures on horseback, indicating Nok culture had tamed the horse.

Iron use, in smelting and forging for tools, appears in Nok culture in Africa at least by 550 BC and possibly earlier. Christopher Ehret has suggested that iron smelting was independently discovered in the region prior to 1000 BC.[3][4][5][6]

Unfortunately the news on Cocobolo doesn't look so good.

Conservation[edit]

Logs, sawn wood and veneer sheets from the Guatemalan populations of Cocobolo (Dalbergia retusa), have been listed under CITES Appendix III since 2008. In 2011, Panama extended that listing to include all products except seeds and pollen and finished products packaged and ready for retail trade.

For the March 2013 CITES Conference of Parties, Belize has proposed uplisting Cocobolo to Appendix II.
