The Tip is 'Teach Grandchildren' One day, while I was on the Made In America Secrets site my granddaughter noticed and asked me what I was doing. I told her about the Big Secret and as I explained, she began to ask me more questions. After several minutes she left my office to play with her little sister. Months had gone by and until recently, I had forgotten about that moment. She was visiting again and I was talking to her about buying a custom printed T-Shirt. She immediately told me about a website that I could use to buy one. Wow I thought, she is only eight years old and already teaching me. The most amazing thing then happened, she said "Pops they sell Made In America T-Shirts". Thanks to her I purchased six custom Made In USA T-Shirts. Her name is Britton, she understands the Big Secret and I love it when she tells me her Little Secrets! Now she is ten and writing a screenplay called Mertastic. It is a story about a mermaid. Recently, she was visiting our house again and using my computer. She called me to come into my office and of course I came to her because that is what grandparents love to do. One of the reasons I love to be with her is because it is always interesting to see what she is up to. This time, she needed a mermaid tail for her movie, so we began to look around using Google. Her mother is a talented seamstress and will make the tail so we were looking for fabric that would be satisfy my granddaughter's vision of her mermaid tail. Once again we began to talk about Made in America and therefore started to investigate the country of origin of the fabrics she was considering. Because of that experience Made in USA fabric is now one of Made in America Secrets products. Thank you, Britton.

At New West KnifeWorks, we make our knives like we cook, we use the finest ingredients and prepare them with the patient hands of an artist. Each knife is a finely crafted masterpiece, a fusion of form and function. New West KnifeWorks was founded by Corey Milligan originally to design, develop, and produce knives for fine art and craft shows.

Furthermore, the knives have been featured in many of the nation's top publications. Corey Milligan Corey runs the worldwide headquarters of New West Knifeworks in beautiful Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He spent many years working in commercial kitchens where he learned the importance and pleasure of working with a fine knife. He's used many different qualities of blades and has the scars to prove it! This experience inspired him to design tools that are beautiful but, even more importantly, are functional, durable, and the finest quality knives available anywhere. New West KnifeWorks knives are the culmination of countless hours of hands on work, intensive study, and the instruction of other knife-makers in the U.S. and Japan. My passion for creating fine cutlery is matched by my love of fine food. Of course, growing up in Ohio with mom's midwestern home-cooking. Early lessons in preparing Asian cuisine. Cooking in commercial kitchens. Living in California and cooking with my brother-in-law and James Beard award winning chef, Chris Kidder. The challenge of growing, hunting and gathering the freshest natural ingredients in Jackson Hole. All of these influences lead me to create unique cuisine which I guess you might call 'New Western' as well. This passion for fine food constantly inspires me to create, test and refine my cutlery into the finest tools available anywhere. - Corey Milligan |
