Mike and Eric

Thanks for the responses. Hopefully Tmac will post as he has in the past.

I look forward to this show since there aren't many held in the vicinity of northern Ontario. At only 300 miles away this is about as close as they get

Eric - I'll send you an email for your cell phone number - thanks! P.S. - Have you given any thought to the sheath possibilities for Spyderco's soon-to-be-released (hopefully) P'kal?

O.K. Below is the basic information, I have a list of vendors and makers for the show but I will take me a few to type it up or update last years list, stand by. On with the show...
