blade show 2013 pix - a work in progress

[DerekH]

Where are the rest of the pics?

 

[Bladite]

the rest?

whatever is in my gallery.

better than nothing eh? i was 95% there to work, so, that happened.

took pix of what interested me. a lot of these shows are the same, year after year...

the different stuff stands out, sometimes, or does not.

a few of the vendors i wanted to capture, esp customs, left early, or don't work Sunday (religious) at all.

Seems like somebody did but I don't remember who it was.

This having been my first time at Blade, I was really impressed with everything including the Ka-Bar booth. The spread was great, but I was really surprised they were able to get Biscuit, Bladite and Moose to actually work!To reward them for their Tom Sawyer like skills in getting folks to work, I threw money at them. In return I got a BK10, 2 BK11s, 3 BK14s and 2 Lake Effect scrapers. Oh, also a bunch of Ka-Bar beer, it's delicious!

I think I would have paid to work the booth just so I could be around all the Knives, Kabar staff and volunteers.

Truth be told.......It would have been awesome to just be able to stand in the wait line......

 

[Bladite]

wait line? what wait line?

I had a Bk10 and a Bk16 follow me home from the KaBar Booth and also got to me The Man The Myth The Legend Ethan Becker !
Many good knives about to hit the market from many great companies ( i am going to go broke come fall ) I also ordered a custom blade from jericho blade works.
I also picked up a Condor kukri machete I wanted the HD Kukri but he sold it...
