JAMES SCHMIDT COLLECTION

AN AMAZING COLLECTION OF WEAPONS, BLADES AND AFRICAN ART FROM THE COLLECTION OF THE LATE JAMES SCHMIDT....
JAMES SCHMIDT Master Blacksmith 1940 - 2000 Born in Schenectady, New York, James Schmidt grew up with an interest in knife- making. While living in Charlton, New York, James began making highly sought after knives until his untimely demise in July, 2000. In a tribute to the late James Schmidt, Steve Shackleford, Blade Magazine’s editor, said “a peerless bladesmith & artisan of knives. A teacher of life and knew how to live it, how to interact with others & to be a friend when a friend was needed, & to be a critic when a critic was needed.” James was one of the first 6 knife makers ever to be designated a Master bladesmith. James was inducted in the American Bladesmith Society Hall of Fame August 13, 2011. James’ legendary knives can be seen in “The Great Collections: Modern Custom Knives” by David Darom as well as numerous other publications.
