I'm pretty new to the Hog world (have acquired 8 in very short time). If I were traveling a long way (from West Texas, that's a loonngg way) to Busse events (Ganzaaas, etc.), I'd probably be in town for a couple of nights. Presumably this is true of some others as well. This begs the question: are there impromptu or even planned trading/selling sessions that take place in hotel rooms, lobbies, etc., during these events? Curious...
 
At the blade show in Atlanta I've seen some hogs selling and trading knives in the hotel. Seen the same thing at Knob Creek too.
 
Ganzaas are internet events, not actual. There are trading forums here on BF, and there is a Busse exchange here on BF too.
I have done bought Busse at knife shows where Busse has been like at Blade and Knob Creek from other members. So I guess it can happen, not all that much...
 
There are some Busse speakeasies



But you have to know the password ;)
 
Thanks all! Based on what I've read here, it now makes sense ("cognitive resonance") that Ganzas are Internet events... that wasn't explicitly clear to me until now. I've bought all of my knives via the BF Exchange so far and I think the Exchange mentality is terriffic. I'll continue to meet more of you via the Exchange. A new Sar-6 with a specific style handle might change that though ;).
 
Jaxx and I always trade insults in the parking lot. I'm still stinging from his last zinger.
 
I have been to the original Knob Creek hotel show, and Blade twice. There was no official organized trading session, but impromptu deals do happen. The Pit at the Waverly during Blade sees some major trade/sale action each evening after the show, but not so much Busse deals.
 
Yes. And I think he broke something inside me.
