Madrid Spain

[opgenorf]

Hey,

Is there anyone on here from Madrid spain? If so, let me know where you guys are at in Madrid. I am moving there in about a week. Looking for some fellow blade nuts to BS with when I move.

Also, interested in picking up some new items in Spain, i.e. I would like to get to know some local makers.

Welcome to Spain,
You will love, quality of life is quite good, peaple are nice and you can find nice knifemakers in Toledo an Albacete. What are your interests?

I am from east Spain. Wellcome to Spain. You have great knife makers here, as he said Albacete and Toledo. You are going to find great people, great weather and great food. See you

Apologies for the late response.

I am really into hiking, camping, wanting to get into knife making but have neither the money nor the time. I hope to be able to start that in the next few years. I would love to have the ability to produce my own folders.

Damn the paperwork!! After much back and forth and dealing with paperwork in spain and the US, I am making the final move to Madrid soon. Looking forward to sunshine, but not the terminal unemployment. Oh well.

I've been thinking of visiting Madrid. I made a friend on Skype over the past couple of years. She's really nice and I want to visit. But I'm not sure how to go about room and accommodations. Outside of Las Vegas and Hollywood, Madrid is sort of the de facto home of Magic and Magicians in Europe. They are amongst the best in the world in Close up magic. I've learned close up magic by studying their works. You might want to check out a show or two while you're there. The food looks amazing too. Madrid has a lot to offer.

I have been many times. Just made it back here now. I have been back and forth since Christmas but now have the paperwork in line. I have sold most of my knife collection abd my car to fund the moving process. Either way now I am here for good I think. Just need to ship more stuff in august when I come back. Pulling most stuff I had posted and sending to BHQ or keeping it and shipping it here.
