Very cool knives and good for you displaying them at the library.  Also with the "green/recycling" attitude setting into kids early in life (my 4 yr old is kinda of a recycling nazi- always makes sure everything is sorted properly) make sure the kids know the knives were born from something else.  

just my $.02

Hey thanks again Guys ReggieI plan to put a sheet by each knife explaining where each part came from and tell the simple version of what it took to make a knife from it!
