KAAK's Blade Show Pics...

I was thinking they had been doing it for a few years.I know the first couple Blade Shows I went too the tables were empty on Saturday.I was so happy when I went the year they started holding knives for each day and was able to score one.
 
The up side to this is that there is hope for a Ganzaa. Not sure what was left, but you never know if Jerry is going to reproduce something similar. The black and yellow seemed to be a bit of a theme this year with the handles.

Is that the 311,511 and the 711 ?
 
The only advantage is a big one IMO (10 secs=lotsa time to hoard). When people are standing in front of the booth when the gates open, they are basically watching until noon, they see the first person walk through the door, they turn around, and gobble gobble gobble. Hey, Im not complaining, its the truth is all. I got what I wanted and some, definitely not complaining :D Just next year Il be sure to score both VIP and an exhibotrs passes a bit earlier just in case I see others taking that route while being a good ole fashion early wakin VIP (they earn the real shite talkin rights aint that right Vox ;))

And agreed with the comments above about it not being Busses fault, hell no it aint, they are in it to sell knives, not coddle people who cry over material possessions. But that wont keep me from speaking the truth.
 
True. That's what was cool about reading at Knob Creek. Everyone got a preview and then they kicked'em out, changed it up and let them back in. Busse will do what they can to be fair, but sometimes it just doesn't work out based on the show. I'd say email them if you saw something you liked. It wouldn't hurt I would think and they may have taken one back with them. I think there were some that hung around, but don't recall.

Anyways, it the words of Jerry... LET'S DRINK (Rootbeer for Mr. Brown and I):D
 
And if anyone has any pics of me that they don't want to post, please email them to me so I have them. Won't post them on the forum :) I know some people out there have to stay "grey" due to work, military, etc. Was awesome getting to meet one of the SEAL Team members that tested the hawk. They always are humble, quiet and great to chat with. You never can tell who you are walking around or talking with.
 
Man, I was right through the door as one of the first at noon on Friday and I didn't see half of those knives?!?

Then again, I don't understand where the 100 people came from who were already up at the booth as I was positively one of the first in.. :p

I didn't see half those blades either and I was waiting in line since 7 am and was 1st through the door when they opened the show up at 12:00. When I arrived at the busse booth 5 seconds after the doors opened, I couldn't believe how many people were around the table scooping up knives. There were so many there with the venders passes you couldnt even get through to the table to get a knife.

The same thing happened a few years ago at Knob Creek when it wasn't announced publicly that they had the Thursday motel offering. I seen pics of knives that weren't there on Friday morning and I was thinking I was first to the table where did they come from. Its kind of frustrating, but I did get one Busse knife that I wanted.
 
I paid 550.00 for my exhibitor passes :)..........................and table ;)

and they would not sell anything until 1200
 
But anyways, here's a pic of me with some amazing people holding a NMFSH that I love so much (Don't own it, just fondled it)

How have you been bro? How long has it been? Since death chat? haha. Geeze, I am blind overlooking your name :foot:
I have been doing good, KAAK.

Yeah, I've been away for a couple of years. I had some family stuff that I had to deal with, so that took up pretty much all of my free time. But now that has been dealt with, I thought that I would come back and browse BF (and the Busse forums) more often.. ;)

Thanks once again for the awesome Blade Show pics! After seeing all of your pics, I think I need one of those satin BOSS Streets.. :D :thumbup:

I'm glad you are back and were able to get everything dealt with. Hopefully it went as smoothly as possible and as Bravado said, stick around. :D I took a hiatus from the forums myself as well and am finally getting around to posting again. I feel like the forum has become a death chat for me, but I'm still buzzing from Blade. I'm really glad to see you're back and looks like we both need to post more.
