Oct 23, 24, & 25 in Cartersville. 23 & 24 are mainly for School kids to field trip for "cultural education". Lot to see and do with NA dance teams, NA campsite/village setups, nature talks, horses and rope tricks, forging demos, chuck wagon cooking/camping, and much more. 25th is open to public...
Hey, I recognize the bottom one in the second pic (181200).
Knew Wayne quite well, we were both charter members of the Georgia Custom Knifemakers' Guild. True gentleman. We did a lot of demos at different events throughout the years, he'd grind and I'd forge. We did a few collaborations together...
Part of the crowd right before lunch (if I can get the video to link). Was a great weekend, great weather and we had between 12 to 18 forges running most of both days. Lot of the kids you see got to try their hands at smacking steel, some of the younguns are pretty much veterans with hammers...
These are a few of the knives I've been able to finish up while my hand heals. Already doing a bit of forging, so will be swinging a hammer at Trackrock in two weeks - Sept 12 & 13. Details on event in another post.

This will be #49
Trackrock...
Forgot to take a pic of the sheath I just finished for Jeff (Cadcom). Maybe he can take one and send it to you to see if it's what you are looking for. Catching up on my leather work as fast as I can, got way behind.
Not to be negative, because Huck made very nice knives indeed, but "ACK" has a tendency to over inflate prices. They've had several of my knives bought at different shows then more than doubled their asking price in resale. Even though I've been told my prices are low, I have never felt the need...
Depends on your timeline. Had carpal tunnel op recently and can't cut leather yet. I'm in Acworth. Hope to be back in full swing (I'm a bladesmith) in a month or so. Be glad to talk possibilities.
Just an FYI the Blast is this coming weekend up in Emerson. Our Flint River Club group known as the "Festival Forgers" will have our setup out side with the other outside venues. We will be helping folks learn a little about forging with "hands-on" for a small fee - tommahawks (miniatures), RxR...
