In the heart of a lush, tropical rainforest, where time seems to flow differently, two extraordinary creatures lead their daily lives in perfect harmony with the world around them. The Hercules beetle, with its powerful horns and hard chitinous shell, is a symbol of strength and perseverance. The grasshopper, delicate and agile, represents lightness and finesse. Although they differ in appearance and lifestyle, their existence in the forest ecosystem is interwoven into a subtle network of harmony that resembles the human life cycle.

The Hercules beetle, a tireless worker almost an artisan, spends its days traversing the forest floor, decomposing dead wood and vegetation. Its powerful horns, like tools carved by nature itself, serve to carry heavy loads, as well as to defend against predators. Hercules plays an invaluable role in the ecosystem – it accelerates the decomposition of organic matter, releasing valuable nutrients into the soil. What is the end for others is the beginning of a new life cycle for him. In his tireless work, one can see an allegory of human striving to leave a lasting mark, to build something greater than ourselves.

The grasshopper, agile and full of life, jumps from leaf to leaf, drawing energy from the plants it consumes. Its existence fills the forest with music – the sounds it makes when it rubs its wings create a symphony of the night. It is like an artist who enriches the world with his talent. Its delicate body contrasts with the raw strength of Hercules, but both of these creatures are equal elements in the great dance of nature. In its lightness and ability to adapt, one can find a metaphor for human ability to adapt, to find beauty in every moment, regardless of circumstances.

Their lives intertwine in a way that reveals the deep harmony of the natural life cycle. The Hercules beetle, symbolizing the past and transience, prepares the ground for new life, while the grasshopper, embodying the present and the joy of the moment, takes advantage of the gifts that Hercules has created. In this way, each of these creatures plays its unique role, influencing the forest ecosystem and maintaining the balance that is essential for the survival of all inhabitants of this green kingdom.

In their story, one can see a deep lesson for humanity. Just like the Hercules beetle and the grasshopper, every person has their unique role to play in the larger cycle of life. Our actions, no matter how small or large, affect the world around us. Interdependence, cooperation, and understanding of our places in the ecosystem are the key to achieving harmony.

The Hercules beetle and grasshopper, two different beings in one ecosystem, remind us that in diversity lies strength, and in harmony, true beauty. Their lives, intertwined in the dance of nature, teach us that every existence has its meaning, and true wisdom lies in finding one's place in the great web of life, where every action matters and every cycle is part of an infinite symphony.

My name is Monthep Chimwai, I'm 39 years old .

I graduated bachelor's degree major in Industrial Education and Education Faculty from Patumwan Institute of Technology, and Certificate major in Industrial Education and Education Faculty from TATC (THAI AUSTRIAN TECHNICAL COLLEGE)

I live at Ayutthaya province, Thailand.

At the end of 2011 I met a man who  became my teacher.

My Professor's name is Sutthichai Phosamton (Ton), also known as Ton-Ayodia.

He was the one who  told me  stories of engraved folding knife and show me the masterpiece that made me  surprized and interested.

He can created from folding knife a piece of art. It was excited to watch this transformation into something  perfect!

For next two years I  was studying to be an  engraver under Ton-Ayodia supervision.

He was instructing and  advising  me in techniques and skills. It wasn’t easy, and take a lot of time and hard work and practise. My mentor was struggling with barriers as lack of capital, marketing or language that’s why he wanted to relay his know-how  as his legacy to someone who can continue this achievements.

Most of  knowledge I got from Him - the moral code of engraver, development of engraving methods over time, designing and practicing of each pattern, , incrustation on workpiece.

In 2013 was my first experience in Bangkok Gems & Jewelry Fair  , next year I  bought my engraving machine and started to create my own works on folding knives, still learning and developing my knowledge.

 

My name is Bartosz Herman. I produce knives according to my own projects and sometimes on an individual order.
I try for every one of my knives to be unique and to enjoy its owner and at the same time to be comfortable and reliable during every day work. I want to develop my skills even further so that results of my work can keep getting better and better. I invite You to watch results of my work.
