I hadn't been before. got there around 10:30 Friday (not early entry) and had hoped to pick up one of the microtech 2025 Blade show Ultratech knives. Not sure how many they had but by the time I got to the booth around 11:15 they were sold out. didn't realize they would be sold out so quickly but no big deal.
haven't not been there before I was surprised at the quantity (and quality) of the kitchen knives at the booths. I don't know enough about blades/steel/materials to know the difference between a $150 and $1000 kitchen knife (I do have 2 Bob Kramer/Zwilling kitchen knives) but maybe by next year I can figure things out.
went with my nephew and he was excited to be there and bought a few knives and showed off some of his modified knives.
Lots to see, but must admit the younger crowd playing with the bali/flipper knives at the end of the other area, spooked me as I walked by. Felt like I needed safety glasses.

Show was great, but very tiring for this ol' poot. 3 days standing on concrete takes a toll. Got to visit with a lot of my good friends and customers from all over - Japan, So.Africa, Australia, Canada, Brazil, and almost every state in the Union. So got a pretty sore throat talking over the noise to go with the achy shins.
Only one glitch - someone picked up this little bowie from the awards judging table in another room (not off my table). I'm a pretty tolerant individual but sure dislike thieves. It is 1.5" long, mastodon ivory and wood handle with silver guard and file work on spine. Had a custom fitted leather sheath with a star escutcheon. If you see this one in some ones collection or trying to sell it - know the character of that individual. I don't expect to ever get it back, I can make another just a little PO'd that some folks have such low moral character.

I agree, bali-song flipper "experts" and wanna-be samuri swords men ought to be sequestered in a room all to themselves.I hadn't been before. got there around 10:30 Friday (not early entry) and had hoped to pick up one of the microtech 2025 Blade show Ultratech knives.
