BLADE SHOW ’2017' ~ Show Us What You Got!

[Kevin Jones]

Blade Show 2017 is just over 4 weeks away. Some are already completing knives so
Its time to post my "Annual Show Us Your Knives" thread.

We would sure appreciate pre-views of any BLADE bound knives makers care to share.
Even if you post photos in a separate thread, please post them here as well.
For future reference, it's very convenient to have all '2017 BLADE Show knives in one thread.

Blade Show is Friday June 2th>Sunday June 4th this year.

Man, I hope it's not like the one I had....arm immobilized for 6 weeks, still going to PT for another 2 weeks and it'll be the end of July before I get released....6 months total!

I'll be thinking of you my friend....God Bless.

I really hate to detract from Kevin's wonderful thread.
They're actually taking something OUT! of my shoulder. Nothing re-constructive.
I should be up and running in short order, but it's really bad timing. Really bad.
Thanks for the kind thoughts.

Sorry to hear that Karl, but I have a feeling you will back in the saddle in record time.

[diggercat]

We need to see more.

 

[diggercat]

I hate to drive 12 hrs give 200$ plus for a room without having a clue what people are bringing.

 

[Matthew Gregory]

It's not ready yet.

 

[verbel]

Those all look awesome Eric.

 

[diggercat]

I greatly appreciate those who post pics of the offerings.

You need to understand something very important.....

Unless you call the maker before the show after they post the photo and request/are granted 1st right of refusal.....it is unlikely after the first 30 minutes of the show that you will even see the knives on their table, and in the case of the "hottest" makers, that you will see ANY knives on their table.

This is the nature of the Blade show......and the cause of much angstieness over the years by many storied collectors and tire kickers alike. Buyers are there, and in many cases, professional buyers. They can get access to a desired maker on Wednesday or Thursday night and clean out their entire show offerings before it even makes it to a table.

Best Regards,

I think that's a new word. But it's the best way to describe it!
