I was wondering if anyone here was going to this show!!! I've been going off n on since early 2000's..
Quite a few knife makers go! I always like to stop and see Battle Horse Knives booth!!!!
Anywho, its just an impressive collection of like minded people in a huge venue!!!!

It runs from February 5-13. Its in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and worth a peek at their website to see all the goodies that will be on display and for sale!!!!

I'm set for the 11th....
 
I drive thru there a couple times a year heading to the Carlisle car show. To bad it's usually April or October. Do they have other times?
 
Doing some mental calculations right now....
CT-> LANCASTER = 4hr....hmmm

Would really really love to go!

Its just.once a year unfortunately. Every first Saturday of February to the second Sunday. Usually, stuff is always subject to change. Its a nice stretch of time. Last few years I've attended with my brother in law. 3.5 hours + or - driving from NYC area. It's an easy ride. All super highway pretty much. Throw in a stop at Cabelas on the way home n its almost like a day in heaven!!
 
Really no one else!! Kinda hard to believe!!! Its the biggest outdoor show, bar none, in the world...

At least have a look see

I'll be there thursday and probably friday. Is there a list of participants. knifemakes/dealers?
 
Total disappointment this year!! At least 1\3 of the vendors didn't attend......Glad I went. Good to spend time with the brother in law n a cousin but just felt underwhelmed about the show!!!!!
 
I haven't been in over 20 years. Three of us went, we stayed over one night.
Did most of the show on Thursday, went back on Friday to see the Fishing, Archery, Boat and Outdoor Lifestyle arenas.

Sig, Savage,H&K, Magnum Research, Taylor, S&W, Ruger . Wouldn't you know I wanted to check out the Savage Impulse and forgot.

Had to tell folks It's not a flea market type show.
 
Next time you go to Cabela's theres an all you can eat Chinese buffet in the Walmart plaza at the entrance road. For 12.00 bucks they have a great selection. Including sushi,crab legs,squid,all the usual stuff and even pizza. They also have a chef who will make you a custom order. I can't remember the name of the place but it is next to an army surplus store. (nice store also)
 
I hit Cabelas too!! Can't not stop!!! Always awesome to stroll thru the gun museum area n drool......
