Francesco Pachi. С Gray Taylor.

Продолжаем знакомство с Great Persons in the World of Knives уже во второй части.

Дополняем Галерею Работ Мастеров, о которых я уже писала и, конечно же, добавляем новые Имена.


As you know Francesco Pachi and me introduce our new project about Great Persons in the World of Knives.

The name of Francesco Pachi is well known for knife masters and not only for them.
A talented man is talented in any craft, so Francesco is known not only with his knife masterpieces highly appreciated by collectors: for a long time he was the head of, probably, one of the most famous knife Guilds in the world, the Italian Knife Guild.
Besides, he makes amazing photographs appreciated by collectors not less than his knives.
Currently he his occupied with photography only. But still the knife world, be these real knives, photographs, exhibitions, books, or anything else, here are his world and his life.


Франческо Паки и я представляем вам наш новый совместный проект.
Пожалуй, на сегодняшний день Франческо, в прошлом знаменитый найфмейкер, является самым известным фотографом, передать ножи для съёмки которому, уже большая честь.

Ни для кого не секрет, что ножи, которые появлятся в Каталогах,"приобретают дополнительную ценность".

Мы вместе с Франческо хотим рассказать вам о Людях, которые стоят за этими ножами.

Сейчас мы взяли подборку за несколько лет и готовы пригласить вас в удивительный мир - the world of custom knives.

Today about Gray Taylor

Итак, Грэй Тэйлор - найфмейкер, который почти четыре десятилетия дарит нам свои неповторимые авторские работы.
Помню, как на одном из шоу подобный складничок быстро купили всего за какие-то шестьдесят три тысячи долларов.
Грэй берёт классику и представляет Миру свой вариант. Специализируясь на репродукции исторических многоклинковых джентельменских складных ножей, он час от часу изготавливает и фикседы. Хотя, они всё больше в прошлом.
Грэй Тэйлор член сообщества лучших мастеров - AKI. На сайте у него можно увидеть больше работ.


C. Gray Taylor - http://www.cgraytaylor.com :

Creating art in the form of custom knives is an obsession for this maker.
For the past 37 years, C. Gray Taylor has devoted himself to this art form. Today, he specializes in reproductions of historical multi-blade gentleman folders, using steel, precious metals and exotic handle materials to create his interpretations of these classic pocket knives.
He is a member of the Art Knife Invitational, a prestigious group of 25 of the most collectible knifemakers in the world. The AKI Show is held for one day every two years in San Diego, CA and is attended by invitation only by both makers and collectors. At this show you will only see the best work featured from each maker.
In 2017, he won 'The Buster' which is awarded for the best overall display of workmanship, named for the late Buster Warenski the undisputed master of the craft. This was the fifth time Gray has won the award, having previously won in 2007, 2011, 2013 and 2015.
Gray and his wife, Evelyn live in the scenic countryside of Eastern Tennessee.
