JS and MS Submittals?

[diggercat]

Who will be submitting knives for JS and MS judging at this years Blade?

 

[Phil Dwyer]

This just came out in the ABS April 17th, 2011 Newsletter. It doesn't say who though.

The Blade Show is set for June 10-12, 2011 in Atlanta. We now have 19 JS and 3 MS candidates on the Judging List for the Blade Show in Atlanta. If you plan to have your knives judged on June 10th in Atlanta, learn how to be added to the list, CLICK: 2011 Atlanta Judging

Kyle Royer is going for his Mastersmith certification and last time I talked to Tommy Gann he was as well.
Both are extremely talented bladesmith.

Billy Helton from Claremore, Oklahoma is going for his J.S.

 

[Paul Savage]

I have let the ABS know my intent to submit my five for JS. I should have the first three complete this week , and hopefully have them looked over by my closest MS about three hours down the road. Hopefully things will go smoothly. Paul

I have a couple of Gann JS and one Royer. Hope to get a MS from each in the future. I wish everyone the best of luck in Atlanta.

Yes, I'll be going for MS.

I have two done and the third (my dagger) should be done by the end of this week. Here are two of my test knives.

Looks like you are off to a great start Kyle.

I love the stag handled one Kyle very fine work. -Burton

Kyle, that interframe pearl bowie is outstanding, beautiful work. The stag bowie is very elegant, really nice. I am looking forward to seeing the other knives. Excellent work.

Kyle, what pattern is the damascus on the interframe?

 

[Kyle Royer]

The pattern on the inter frame is an eight bar w ladder where I am using the edge of the bar instead of the traditional part of the ladder pattern. This is a very very active and shiny pattern.

I'm putting the 18K green gold into the pre-ban elephant ivory of my dagger today.

Thanks for the compliments!
