Background information for this post:
Hopefully, it is okay to cross post this thread here. As you can read from the below details I started a camping trip a few years back to get a group of knife enthusiasts together to enjoy high-quality cutlery and each other's company. At the time I was primarily just a Busse collector, but I have grown to enjoy collecting and using CPK knives at least as much as Busse knives (and many other longtime Busse enthusiasts now collect CPK knives as well). I have posted the below camping trip details on the Busse forum, but I wanted to pass the invitation along to anyone here on this forum as well.
Camping trip details:
About three years ago I set up a camping trip in order to get a group of Busse enthusiasts into the woods to use our knives. The trip was a success and the 6 of us that attended had a lot of fun. Last year I hosted a second spring camping trip, and it too was a blast, so much so that it's now a spring tradition. Now that spring is quickly approaching and the weather is getting nicer, it's time to set up another trip for those that would like to attend. Everybody here on this forum is welcome to attend, and you are welcome to bring friends so long as they are respectful of my property and the other people attending. Family is welcome to attend, but there is likely to be drinking around the fire in the evenings (and probably other times too) so keep that in mind if you want to bring little ones. The camping trip will be the weekend of Friday May 3rd through Sunday May 5th.
Here is the thread from the trip in the spring of 2016, pics start around page 10 I believe: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...st-Camping-Trip-v2-Weekend-of-April-30th-2016
Here is the thread from the trip in the spring of 2017: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads...oast-camping-trip-weekend-of-4-28-17.1475105/
My land is a little over 50 acres in WV; most of it is pretty steep but there are plenty of places to pitch a tent that are accessible from a gravel driveway. I do not have running water or electricity on the land, but I do have plenty of room for us to put our INFI to good use, have a big fire, and enjoy the woods.
There is a Walmart (11 Harness Rd, Moorefield, WV 26836) nearby that would probably be the best place to meet at and get supplies if anybody needs anything. There are also plenty of restaurants nearby if people don't want to eat camp food the entire time. It's obviously not required to attend the whole weekend, if you can only make one night or just a day that is completely okay.
People that are attending (list will be updated when more people confirm):
