ATTN: NY Custom Knife Show Attendees

bcaffrey...Yes the freak-out factor would be high...are you a new yawka? I'll be easy to find, I'm told that I look like Buffalo Bill and/or German Jesus...

Can it core a apple?
 
Yup, Ebbtide, NYC born & raised. I sorta stand out in most crowds too -- 6'2" 260 or so, gray hair & beard (both short now). I'll have a black nylon briefcase with "About.com" on the flap.

Cheers,

I may be goin' to hell in a bucket, Babe, but at least I'm enjoyin' the ride.


 
Counting the days until then. See you people there.

Looks like there will be a pile of us at the door at 11:58 on Friday- Can't wait- The 2 NYC shows are like a birthday/Christmas thing for me- an excuse to spend several hours messing w/ knives & to perhaps buy something- I'm about 5'11"/225 Lbs., in a USA Rugby baseball cap w/ a Bowie pin. Anybody bringing goodies to sell/trade?

Rugger,

Yeah, I'll be bringing some stuff to sell/trade. 3 or 4 customs & some titanium JSP sticks. I'll look for the hat & bowie pin!

Got a question for you guys?
Are there going to be automatics sold at this show? If so, will you get a hard time by security if you buy one and try to leave the hotel with it? I want to trade one of mine and perhaps buy one. Hope to be able to meet some of you people.

Steve
 
53rd or 52nd? hmmm ... your both right! The hotel takes up the whole block and 811 7th is in the middle of the block between 52 & 53 on the east side of 7th ave.

bcaffrey- & Attilla
Don't tease me like that! The Beauchop is an old favourite of mine- just can't go $300+ on a toy for myself so close to the Holidays- I'd love to see it at the show if you don't mind (& if it's not already sold...) Atilla, The JSP sticks are really tempting... bummer I haven't had any time to train...
cheers,
M.

We will have a GREAT time!!! I'm really looking forward to it! Too bad I don't live in Manhattan any more... I'd like to crash, but I WON'T pay those ridiculous prices for a room! Bummer, I live there most of my life & shortly when I move ALL my friends move too...

Well, not quite all my friends. I still have a bud who lives in Hell's Kitchen. But the damn apartment is about the size of a postage stamp! Heh, maybe I'll crash in his bathtub...

LOL!

Thanks, Attila. It really is a nice piece.
Rugger, if it's still available, I'd be happy to show it to you. In fact, if you catch me early enough, I'll have the tambotie handled one as well. (It's going to its new home at the show.)

bcaffrey,

Why yes she DEFINATELY is! ^_^


One of the things I will be looking for will be a Martin 6+" double ground blade... Wish me luck... Probably just have to put a custom on order...

Rugger,

As for the titanium JSP sticks: I will be bringing quite a few... a Wang-Bo, Wang Stick, Pocket Meteor, Koppo Stick & 2 8" Ban Bogs. They are REALLY cool. I'll have fun showing them to you guys!

------------------
Attila
 
I'd like to see the Ti toys too, Attila. Do you know if BladeRigger will be exhibiting?

bcaffrey,

I think you will be quite pleased with the JSP sticks! No, James unfortunately will not be making the show. I have some of his business cards & will be handing them out. I'm not affiliated with JSP, it's just that I LOVE his stuff! I guess having 4 of his customs with nearly every carry system & a bunch of kick butt titanium sticks makes me a believer!!! Now I have to decide if I should bring any JSP customs with me. Sadly, in NYC none of them are carry legal... ;(


------------------
Attila
 
Carrying on your person, I'm sure you're right about them being illegal. I did once read the law about >4" blades being OK when engaged in or en route to somewhere their use would be legit like camping, fishing, hunting, etc. I wonder if that would extend to shows. Don't take my word on it, but maybe carried in a briefcase or gear bag...

bcaffrey,

Yeah, I'm going to have a gear bag for the various sticks, & for sale/trade customs. It's just that my JSP blades are my personal defensive carry. Keeping them in their prospective carry cases & not on ME seems WRONG! If ppl would like to see one or two, I might be persuaded to bring something... ^_^

I know NYC knife laws are single edged, less than 4" blade length. I have taken that into consideration & will carry accordingly. 2 or 3 folders & 2 fixed blades seem about right...^_^

Attila, i'll be there Sat. when are you going to be there? i would definitely buy a meteor or Koppo or Banbog. i have a Wang bo already. love this stuff! are your pieces used or are you bringing them NIB? and will you only be there Fri.? i'm bringing wife and daughter so little one can see the "sights." worried about even bringing my BM 705 Axis though! oh well after we see the sights and go over to the show i can find more toys!!
