Nashville custom knife maker?

[fracmeister]

It is Friday the 13th and I am in Nashville for the weekend. I guess many are gone to the blade show? Any custom knifemakers here? Thanks in advance.

there are a few nashville knifemakers that set up at the nashville area shows. i don't recall any names...none particularly caught my fancy...check the backa website for geographic info. john greco comes down from ky for quite a few. if it is being held this weekend...the smyrna gunshow is worth visiting

rich useltons in goodletsville carries a few customs....a lot less then they used too. full price factory blades and a bunch of kit puukos. a lot of old pumas though

smoky mountain knife works is worth a gander but it is close to 4 hours away from nashville

i recommend going to the bluebird cafe and catching some tunes

Doc, good advice. My brother used to tend bar at the Bluebird before he had his first hit. Good place. He was working there the night Garth Brooks got discovered.

Frac, if you're looking for a place to eat, try 12th and Porter(or maybe it's Porter and 12th ).
Also there's a Bass Pro Shop nearby if you like looking at that kind of stuff.
