Blade Show Question

razorhunter · Mar 1, 2003

Guys,
I will be attending for the first time this year. I have heard there are tickets that are sold?
How much are they, and how do I get one? Can I just show up, and pay to get in, or do you have to buy tickets in advance? Is there a limited number of people allowed in? Thanks fellas.

Hi razor. You show up, you pay, you go in. You go in, you spend all your money, you come out broke. You go home and you are hap hap HAPPY!

least that was the way it worked for me.

Art, if youre going to Blade this year you'll have to come by the table and hang out ( this goes for anybody else coming ). Only three months and change ( yes I'm already getting ready for it ), can't wait

Wish I could make it. Atlanta is just a bit too far this year.:grumpy: I haven't been to Blade yet, but I will before too many more years pass.

It's a great show - claimed to be the biggest knife show in the world.

Your legs will get tired just from the walking -
there are interesting talks and demonstrations,
and some of the most famous and legendary knifemakers are there.

FWIW - I have some 24 photos of some of the famous knifemakers at the url in my sig from the 2001 Blade Show, including a shot of Japanese sword cutting demo by Bugei. It's the 3 albums toward the bottom of the page
(warning - watch out for the pop-ups - it's a redirected MSN community site)

Don't miss the Blade show! Once it starts getting real close, you will find that there are VIP passes available that get you in, not only free, but ahead of most of the General public. See you in Atlanta!
