BLADE SHOW ’08 – Show us what you got; Please!

I'm hoping to make it to my first Blade Show. There is a 1000+ miles I will need to travel on my motorcycle to do it, but hopefully the planets will align and I will succeed.:D

Anybody else traveling by scoot from New England?

here is a sneak peak at some that I will have. I will have 30 or so total. Mixed with a few Kitchen knives, thick stock knives, 2 thin lightweight hunters that are feather light:thumbup: for those looking to cut back on weight on a long hike or camping trip.

I will get better pictures later on but thought I'd share what picture I have so far no matter how poor :)

Kevin, great thread! Thanks!

This will be my first Blade show and between this thread and the July issue of Blade...the wait is killing me! Haven't had this much anticipation since...well, that's another story :D

That's quite a trip, no matter the bike or how well you ride. Give me a call upon arrival and I will have a beer waiting. :thumbup: :)

That'll be a great ride! Would join you from NW NJ but will be on a business trip that week and arriving Thursday evening from TN.

Ride safe!

Rob, I very much look forward to seeing you there:thumbup:

It will be my longest distance trip. I plan on at least two days of riding. I have done a few rides of 500 - 600 miles in one day so hopefully the distance will be manageable. I need to accomplish some mechanical work in preparation but my trusty Kawasaki Concours is a great distance bike.

Thanks for the offer Kevin as I do plan to introduce myself to some of the members of this forum.

Here's the whole enchilada. What a beauty. :thumbup:


I don't know how it could get any better than that.
That thing leaves me speechless.
 
I will be there and I can't wait! I can't post those big pics...maybe you can for me, but here's the link to the limited edition fighter I am doing for Paragon Asheville Steel:

The Damascus is made by the Cloisters. It would be cool to see them posted the way these other fine pieces are. I can't wait to see some of these in person. A lot of talent in one place.
