I spoke with Art Green, a prominent vintage cutlery salesman from New England, at The Blade Show this weekend.
He told me that Tom Kalcevic, pre-eminent Robeson cutlery historian and author of two fine books on the topic, is deceased.
I did not know.
Tom had a fabulous collection of Robeson knives and collectible paraphernalia.

Re: Tom Kalcevic
Sorry to hear that Charlie.He would come to the Queen Show and have a table. I bought his last book and had him sign it back in 2013.

Re: Tom Kalcevic
He seemed like a nice fellow. He brought a Cammilus farmers jack to GEC a year or two ago and I bought it from him and I think he had that in mind. A very reasonable price.
Condolences to his family.
Sorry I didn't stick around Blade long enough to meet you Charlie.

Re: Tom Kalcevic
Lyle, did we not meet at The Blade Show some years ago? We were all staying at the La Quinta Inn.

Re: Tom Kalcevic
Sorry to hear of this mans passing. I have what apparently is one of his books in a spiral binding.

Re: Tom Kalcevic
Apparently there has been a mistake. Tom Kalcevic was spotted today at the Queen Show in Titusville, Pa. by Peanut740 and was even photographed so he's still with us after all.

I saw him there also. He had a very nice Robeson display again this year.
