Billy Oneale replied to Luca Vignelli's discussion Member Spotlight - J.J. Smith III"Everyone has things that will take time to deal with. I have no doubt that Luca will find the time when he can to resume his spotlight series. Patience is always worth it. luca writes really good articles."
"They will be back. He has all the material to do the next one...just needs some time to write and polish. HE WILL BE BACK"
"Taking care of his parents shows just how good a man he is, I wish him alot of courage for this job. He did a great job doing the member spotlights, I miss them."
"For those that are unaware, Luca continues to have more and more responsibilities taking care of his elder parents. I should have placed something in here sooner, for that I apologize. I know he has gathered the info from…"

Luca Vignelli commented on Ken Mundhenk's group Great Eastern Cutlery"Ha! I like that Jan, "procustion", that's a new word I'm going to enjoy using! Love ya!"
Luca Vignelli commented on Ken Mundhenk's group Great Eastern Cutlery"And I hope you alos see what a much better made knife the GEC Northfield 23 is. I really hope that they reissue the 23 in spiral cut buffalo horn, that's a knife I want, anybody out there have one for me?"
Luca Vignelli commented on Ken Mundhenk's group Great Eastern Cutlery"Dana, it seems to me that you're pointing out the blade forward nail nick as being low, but on that stag model you have a foot long "long pull" just behind it, so it would seem that you have plenty of room and a choice of where you…"
Luca Vignelli commented on Ken Mundhenk's group Great Eastern Cutlery"Dana, looks to me like you got yourself a beauty from the #36 Buffalo Horn Sunfish run we did last year, lucky you. I hope you enjoy it's infinite wonders. I know it's just a knife, but the possibilities are endless, right?"
Luca Vignelli commented on Ken Mundhenk's group Great Eastern Cutlery"For me the biggest advantage of the all steel is that I find it ten times more beautiful when all of the metal on the knife is the same color, as opposed to subtle contrast of 1095 and Nickel Silver and brass.

Luca, how you doing my good buddy. I was sending you this message to see if you could do a profile of one of our members. You did such a good job on the others you did. If you are too busy I understand. I think the profiles were a good way to get to know people. I thought a profile of James Ivy would be great, he's a big collector, a custom knife maker and attends alot of knife shows. I think knives runs in his blood. Please let me know what you think, thanks.
