Talking Korth mention in K.I.

OK, just got my issue of Knives Illustrated, and spotted an article about the Third Brasilia Custom Knife Show. There is of course mention of several of the prominent Brazilian forgers that have been working under the guidance of Jerry Fisk for the last few years, and then there is mention of some folk relevant to this forum:

"The brothers Ricardo and Roberto Lala of Korth Cutlery who showed their incredible folders and balisongs featuring their exclusive IKBS (Ikoma Korth Bearing System) that makes a smooth and silent operating action for all their blades."

Also mentioned is Mauro Machado of Taymo.com. Nice to see a few of our friends getting a little coverage!

Just a little bit of trivia, this is the show where Korth debuted the Kukri balisong.

Yeah I have a feeling we'll see much more on all the Brazilian makers in the not to distant future.

Just got the magazine myself, but haven't read the artcile yet. Thanks for the heads-up...
