Sedona AZ (December 10, 2012) – Looking for a last-minute holiday gift for a special man in your life? Rowe Fine Art Gallery in Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village has exactly what you are looking for! This month, the gallery welcomed Ken Steigerwalt and Steigerwalt Knives to Rowe’s family of traditional and contemporary southwestern artists. Ken lives in Pennsylvania and has been creating knives since the tender age of 15. “I started out making my first knife on the kitchen table with a vise and some files back in 1978,” says Ken. “Ever since then, it’s been a passion and a journey to build a better knife than the last.”
Ken’s knives have been featured in shows across the globe, including annual events in California, Boston and Italy. Ken’s signature trademark is the seashell pattern he carves into the bolsters and handles of his knives. He primarily creates pocketknives with lock-back or front-lock mechanisms, making these beautiful knives easy to carry and use on a daily basis. His materials include 18-karat gold, pearl, walrus and mastodon ivory, and titanium. These are not your grandfather’s Swiss Army knives! Pop into Rowe Gallery to see these collectible pieces in person. Quantities are limited. And remember, ladies, even if you have finished your holiday shopping, Valentine’s Day is right around the corner…
Rowe Gallery is located under the bell tower in Patio de las Campanas at Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village. It is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information, call 928-282-8877 or visit www.rowegallery.com.
