Springfield is not a family name

If we're going with family names, then let's replace Springfield with Garand, and Enfield with Lee.  :)

I like this topic Lam

I think it should be turned into a list of names we like and trust. Maybe with a sentence or two about what they make and where they are from. Maybe a link to their site as well.

Böker. Quality German knife maker.

Just a idea

I can't do it I do all my posting by phone

I like to see Family names that associated with a series of good designs or products.

They did fit like Kain and Able, yes!  :D

But I like those names like Adidas - Adi Dassler, HanWag - Hans Wagner, Lowa - Lorenz Wagner, AlDi - Albrecht Discount. It's not only some made-up name, it tells a little history.
Like this famous stainless Mother ;)
