I am looking forward to seeing, and talking with you again as I have been to every ABS Show since they separated from the engravers, gunsmiths show the last 2 years.
Course I live here, and that helps :D
Great show, beautiful knives, and some of the nicest knifemakers I have ever met.
See ya there :)

Nope. The Oregon show is the best! :D
The one in Eugene? You've got to be kidding.

I agree with Nick. In fact, I'll go one step further: if you are into top quality forged blades, it's the best show bar none.

I surely wish I could make the show and visit with you, my friend! Just do a repeat on your awards and "knock 'em dead"! Pay a visit to P.J. Tomes for me, he is a good friend! ---Sandy---

If only it didn't conflict with SHOT :(

I really would like to be there but, SHOT can't be missed. Maybe I'll get to see you at Eugene if travel plans allow it.
 
Hey Matt-

Not unless something has changed and I missed it. At Reno we all dress up and play nice ;)

Rodebaugh will be doing a forging demo down on the street in Reno though...which I think is pretty damn cool.

The show is in a really nice room in the Silver Legacy and is small, cozy, and very elegant.

There have been about ~55 tables the last 2 years, and will be the same again.

It would be great if you could come by! :D
