Word is out - it was another great time for all who converged at the home and shop of Josh & Jodi Smith that beautiful weekend, end of June. To see all the pictures you'll have to travel by hyperlink. To pique your interest, check these out. That's Steven Garsson and Don Fogg below:

Everybody loves that crazy bowling ball cannon. Trouble is it takes a bunch of crazy guys to pull it off. Amazingly it worked anyway!

I composed this thread of images from the weekend of June 26-28 at Josh Smith's place in Montana on a quiet forum where I could concentrate the pictures for easy veiwing. Follow this link:http://www.customknifecollectorsassociation.com/forumsv3/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=623
 
Thanks for taking the time to do the review and post the pictures, Buddy. The second one of Josh and his daughter on the 4 wheeler is my favorite.

Great photos Buddy.

I like the one of Josh's girls in the back of the pickup.
They start on those cell phones very young these days.

You have beautiful daughters Josh.

Thanks for that picture, Buddy. I was showing Don a knife and sheath made by Nick Wheeler. Don's knives are out of this world crazy great, but his sheaths are not wonderful. At the show, was giving him crap about this, and when he saw Nick's leather work, he was impressed. We are laughing at something he said about the amount of time it takes Nick to give birth to a knife(paraphrase).:D

I call Don "Sensei".....the impact that he has had on the knife world in general, and the personal impact that he has had on me is so great that it cannot be measured.

Best Regards,

Buddy,

Fantastic photos and review. I want to write something on there but I have to remember my username and password.

It is so awesome having you here each year taking amazing photos and combining them with your incredible writing. Again THANK YOU!
 
Thanks Josh, the pleasure is mine. Thank you for the incredible effort you and your family put toward the event. Glad you like the pictures. Here's my final image in this year's Big Sky Country picture gallery - Don Fogg making a powerful point (pun intended). :p

Wonderfully appropriate

Sensei = "one who has gone before"
