I think Zaza Revishvili won again for either collaboration or handle.
In any case, his stuff was stunning as always.

Thanks Blues ZaZa and Tim Hancock won best collaboration
.
My friend, it was great spending time with you this year as always, I cherish the friendship that has developed between us and I can not wait until next June
. If I can make it to Orlando, I might end up on that list of miscreants. (Had to drive a lot and keep long hours at Blade
).

My graddaughter, age8, won a very nice camp knife from Murray StAmour,Ontario, Canada in the "Win-a-Blade" contest. See here for the picture.
Thanks to Blade and Murray for helping turn her into a "Knife Knut".
Gus sorry I missed you again this year. But at one time I misplaced the Wife for about an hour.
Had a great time and got a few knives though. I even scored Prototype 003 of the BladeTech Lynx. Way cool knife.
Pics to follow.
