They lived there for eight thousand years, one of the longest continuous human histories in California. In the autumn of 1602, the explorer Sebastián Vizcaíno sighted the island from his ship on the eve of November 25th, the feast of Saint Catherine, and named it Santa Catalina for the saint of the day. Catherine of Alexandria was a scholar and a martyr, and old paintings show her with two emblems: a broken wheel and a sword. Over the centuries she became the patron saint of librarians, of philosophers, and of knife sharpeners. So the island that gives this knife its name also carries the patron of the sharpener's trade.
