This page is created as a service to those knife users and collectors
who
purchased knives from me in the early years. I will always appreciate
your
support and patronage!
During my knifemaking career from 1975 to 1995 I made 910 marked and
serial
numbered blades. Some of them had blades over 18" in length, and
therefore
received a "sword" number (shown hyphenated with the blade number) For
instance, blade # 520 is also sword # 52
The following list begins with serial number 501 and goes to #910,
listed
by serial number with some other information given about it, such as
handle
material, blade steel etc. I may have more information about a
particular
knife, particularly if it is a very early one. Some of my information
on
the blades is sketchy, especially as regards blade length and
handle-materials,
so if you own one of these knives and can correct errors or fill in
question
marks please let me know. Eventually I hope to link this list to
photographs or other information where available. You can contact me at

| ------------- | End of | Production | --------- |
In 2006, after a 12 year hiatus, I began making knives again on a
very
limited basis, reviving a few of the smaller and more classic designs
from
the earlier period. Serial numbers continued from the point where I
stopped
in 1994. No orders are being taken at this time. Wire-wrapped blades
utilize
a take-down construction, and the signature, date, and serial number
appear
on the tang of the blade when the handle is removed. The "Bamboo
Hunter"
serial #911 is a glue-up style, and the signature appears on the blade
along with the date. No serial number is inscribed since this was the
only
knife made in 2006.
Beginning in 2009 is a knife series called "Haiku". The Haiku series
knives are characterized by the "toggle-tang" construction, which is a
modification of the traditional Japanese tang construction system. One
design constraint of the traditional Japanese tang is that the pommel
is attached solely to the wooden handle and not to the blade or tang,
and therefore the pommel must be very light. I developed the
toggle-tang in the 1980s as a way to attach a larger heavier pommel to
a sword while retaining the unique takedown features of the Japanese
style construction. The toggle-tang style is perfectly suited to
smaller knives as well, where its use allows for the use of a strong
pommel screw combined with a relatively thin blade. It also obviates
the need for a peg hole in the side of the handle, which can be
restrictive from a design standpoint. The name "Haiku" for the series
is inspired by the fact that when a knife is completely disassembled
there are at least 17 discrete parts, the same as the number of
syllables in the haiku poetic form.
Blades of the Maringer "new period" may be characterized by an almost
brutal economy of form, an extreme of utility combined with an absolute
spareness of extraneous mass. The knife design is pared down to
its final form by removing any scrap of material that is not actually
performing a needed function. The maker's signature appears only on the
tang of the blade, visible only when the knife is disassembled, in
order to preserve the purity of line and form, and as a bow of respect
to the tradition of the Japanese style craftsmen who also did likewise.
Technical boundaries are being pursued in the used of titanium as
material for the furniture. The combination of strength and light
weight can be used to create superlative overall balance and "feel",
making a beautiful display piece also eminently useable in the field.
