LOL, yes your memory is a little off. Linda Wick is in no relation to the Stone Creek folks. Kim is one of the owners of Stone Creek.
Back a few years ago, before they added it to the site, this is what Kim said concerning the rumor mill of them buying Wicks out:
quote: I am getting in the material just like Wick used. I do not have it as of yet, expecting it any time. First things we will be making with this material will be chaps, jackets with hoods and jackets without hoods. I did not buy her patterns but these jackets and chaps will be made as closely to theirs as possible as they had the best clothing on the market as far as I am concerned. I also did not spend $30,000.00 on anything. I did get some of her things when she closed but not nearly that much. I also did not buy her out and go under a different name , Stone Creek Hounds and Hunting Supplies is our business that we have had for a while, just expanding . I would love to say I am the new owner of Wicks as they were top of the line. I just don't want any hard feelings between Linda or John Wick and ourself if they would get the wrong impression that I am stating that I bought them out. They are both very good friends of ours and that is important to us, and we want to keep it that way.
