Ken,

I agree that it is a great lineup. Preston Gough was the person who convinced all of these makers to have knives for the CKCA Show. I am looking forward to seeing the knives.

What an incredible lineup of makers. It will be very interesting what they bring.
 
Yes, Preston Gough put a fine group of knifemakers together for our 6th Mini-Show.
I'm looking forward, as I'm sure many of you are, to seeing what they bring. We will keep you updated.
Thanks to our knifemakers for participating.
 
This is kind of a silly question but where is the show and is it only for members of the CKCA?

Not silly at all. The Banquet/Show takes place at Maggiano's Restaurant right across from the Waverly Hotel. This will be the 5th year they have hosted our event and have done a wonderful job over the years. It's for CKCA members and their guests, though only CKCA members can participate in the Mini-Show.

The CKCA Banquet/Meeting/Mini-Show has become one of the more popular events at Blade.

Here's some photos from the last couple of years courtesy of Murray White.

All of my favorite makers in one group. Thats pretty cool! I couldn't tell you at this point if I will be able to attend the weekend but this is very exciting.
 
Great lineup. Very good time and great food. I am going to try and get back down this year. Brought my brother down last year and we had a great time. -Burton
 
Wow, way to go Preston! What a stellar lineup of makers! The addition of a collaboration will be a real treat. :thumbup:
