G'DAY EVERY ONE. JUST HAD OUR GUILD SHOW. 24 MAKERS, 198 KNIVES SOLD TO 487 BUYERS THROUGH THE DOOR. NOT A BAD RATIO. A LARGE CHUNK WERE SNAPPED UP BY AN AMERICAN DEALER. THERE ARE A LOT OF VERY HAPPY MAKERS OVER HERE. HAVE A KNIFE DAY.
 
Peter, is there any where that we can get to see some pictures of the show? I would love to get a look at the knives and the makers from Australia.
 
Gentlemen, give me a day or two (thirty-two hours of traveling will kill anybody) and I'll post some shots. These guys can hold their own with any makers in the world!
I'll take this space to thank them all for the way they took in my wife and I while we were over in their country. It was the trip of a life time for us, made better by the company of the Australian makers. With all of the shows I attend, I can't think of one that was better. Peter, please relay my graditude to all that attended.
 
Hi Terrill, good to hear you and your missus arrived home safe. Has the blood flowed back into your butt yet? Glad to have you back any time and thanks for the praise. Will pass your message on to the boys. Have a great time in Atlanta. All the best Peter.
 
While I'm playing, here is the first installment of some fine looking knives.

That's a beauty all right. Top grade finish on that knife and very good looking ivory used for that handle. I can hardly wait to see more pictures.

Peter, please give us some info on that wonderful knife.
 
I'm going to move this over to the Gallery so that images of the event can be shared with the membership.
 
Keith,
I can give you the spec's on this fantastic piece. ATS-34, 4 1/8" blade length, engraved stainless bolster and cap, mammoth slabs, and black ray (from the Sea of Japan) shealth. This knife will be floating around the Blade show before it joins the fighter that is shown in the Gallery thread started by Danbo. Racer Roy
