I have been looking at Andy's Bushboot for a long time and drooling. I decided that I would have to get one at Blade. The problem is that my beautiful wife's birthday was today (Saturday.) Well after much begging and pleading on my part I was able to convince her to go to the show for a short time so that I could at least get to handle one of the Bushboots. (Actually it wasn't that hard, she was fine with going after being told it wouldn't be an all day thing.) She is a keeper that's for sure.
So we get to the show and I visited a couple of other tables. Then I decide to visit Andy's table. I was hesitant to go because I was afraid the knife I wanted would be gone. I had been looking at this thread and I was hoping to buy the blue handled Bushboot featured on page 2. Well when I got to the table the blue one was still there. Luckily I saw the Bushboot that I ended up with sitting a little below the blue handled one. This knife is a thing of beauty. It is hard to describe how nice this knife is. The pictures below do not do it justice. I liked Andy's knives before, now I think I am in love. Heck even my wife liked this knife. She usually only likes folders, so this is quite a step for her to say she likes it much less likes it a lot.
Unfortunately Andy was not at the table at that moment. I did get to meet Mr. Fletcher. Really nice helpful guy. Speaking of which he had some awesome knives on the table also. If I hadn't run out of money I would have walked away with one of his Pocket Kilos. I will be ordering one of these in the future. Anyway back on topic, since Andy was away for a couple of minutes Dylan put the knife behind the table and I continued looking around. When I got back to the table Andy was back and if you haven't met him I can tell you he is super nice. I payed for the knife and drooled over everything else on the table. The machetes are really nice. I can't wait for those to become available. Okay enough of this constant yakking. I'm sure you want to see some pictures of the knife I can't stop talking about. Here they are. Hopefully I will have some time to take some more pictures and use the knife some more tomorrow.
