This is the list of people and companies who will be offering knives for Auction or sale to benefit Yuko and the boys (8 & 5). As many of you know our son Bryan passed suddenly July 11th. So am doing everything in my power with the help of his friends in the Los Angles Police Department, and all of you. Am also going back to work making knife box's and doing different wood work as well as selling knives. So look for that in the near future. Bryan was a well respected Detective 2 in the Hollywood Division of LAPD. All of Hollywood Division attended his service which says a lot. He helped a lot of officers as we have been hearing and was always been willing to help his brothers and sisters in blue. In fact one of the people he was helping just passed her detective written test. Please look at my blog, the last few have more information. Also a number of these will be run on FaceBook group "Iron Sharpens Iron". Hopefully this is the go to host for the knife community! If you do not do Facebook but are interested , I can bid for you.

These are the same knives that were donated to LAPD Hollywood Division in Bryan's honor by Spyderco to raise some money and also something the officers could afford.

Many people have known Bryan all is life that are in the knife industry. They knew me before I meet Pam so have known Bryan also. From working in the store, attending Knife Shows and doing security at the California Custom Knife Show. We are a very close family and fortunate to all live close by. So this has hit us really hard. He was a special person!
