Awesome job Tim, posting everyone who has a table.
There are a few changes, I'll post them later..

The show at this point has 45 makers..about 3.5x what the show used to have.
Combined with our Billboard advertising, full page in Blade Magazine, this Will be the Best NCCA Mystic show ever...guaranteed 👍

Thanks for posting Taz! I used to do it, glad somebody else has taken the time! Bill, I hope it is the best show ever but that would be very hard to do since there have been so many great NCCA shows over the years. Some years there are more customs, some years less. Some go to the show for custom knives, some for antique knives, and some for military knives and it changes often. I'll be there with three tables of old knives (older than me, and I'm getting pretty old). I'm glad it's back in Mystic but wish it was back in the last weekend of April or the first weekend of May. That Danvers show idea was a real mess!

I'll have my customs, as well as several antique Nihonto!
 
Coming up this weekend!! I have a bunch of new blades available, several Japanese swords.



Stop by and say Hi!
 
Full table display! Sold a few pieces and covered the hotel/show costs for the weekend so far! Still another day left today, too! Stop by and say Hi!

Man, what an awesome show!! Foot traffic throughout the show was crazy busy Saturday and a more normal pace on Sunday. Sold enough to cover expenses and my table for next year, as well as buying some small toys :) 40 knives, 6 swords and some strops fit onto the table nicely. The newer knife stands I lasered out worked really well and held 6 knives in a space around 8-9" square or so! Gave out lots of cards and talked to a lot of great people and met a TON of great makers, too!

Looking forward to next year and trying to get a table for Sturbridge on April 19th!
 
Gunsil, what room were you in? I was in the main room, in the corner near Farina. Didn't get out to the 2nd room much until I went to see NJSB at the end of day 1 and Goldberg at the beginning of Day 2.
 
Hi Taz, I was in the large room at the opposite end and same row as Artie Green facing the back wall. I am having health issues and was not able to walk around much. Sorry I didn't stop by to say hello. I had 16' of display cases with mostly antique fixed blades and a friend had the last two feet of my tables with mostly antique pocket knives. The Mystic show has usually been my best show but was a little off for me this year. My friend with two feet did better than I with 16'! Of course with antiques you never know what the public will be looking for. I have a good selection of US WW2 military knives too and nobody seemed to be looking for them or didn't like my prices. A few regular customers also didn't make the show so I might have done better if they had. I never set up at the NCCA one day shows but will probably go to Sturbridge to shop and socialize although when I was there in November I got my car totaled by a deer on the way home. I am planning on doing the Shenandoah show Easter weekend, it is bigger than the Mystic show. Hopefully I will make the Little Valley, NY show in July.
 
Ah, ok! I did better than the Sturbridge show and had lots of foot traffic. I will have a table at Sturbridge in April, too, so hopefully I can finally get to meet you!
