Knives Illustrated from August of 2006. I was kindly given a feature article. I wrote this one too. It seems no one else will write about me but apparently I don’t have a problem doing it….
I’m not sure which is more entertaining, getting some nice press in the August 2006 issue of Knives Illustrated or talking about myself in the third person…
A few months back I sent in some pictures of some of my knives to Bruce Voyles, editor of KI, along with some comments on each. I never heard a word back and thought Bruce chunked them in the trash along with the thousands of other photos he gets.
I got my KI magazine a few days ago and it sat there unread on my end table. I finally took a look and saw a teaser line on the cover that said, “How to Double the Strength of your Knives!” so I turned to the index to find the article. I scanned down the features listed and there… there was an article by me?? It said, “Mickley in his Own Words” … ”A knife maker describes his knives”… I yell at my wife “Look at this!..”
Thanks Bruce Voyles.. I owe ya one…
