Harassing citizens in the street is one thing, but business must go on.
 
Esav, unforuantely that is what is happening. First I am a avid knife collector as we all are here, so I am saying this in a manner that I would hope clear up the way the law is being enforced. If NYC is enforcing a law upon all persons with in its jurisdiction, then it should first and foremost go after the provider of the items it says are illegal. When anyone person is arrested for the carrying of a "gravity knife" he bears the legal burden of attempting to defend himself from a serious criminal charge. The law that bans possession of gravity knives also clearly bans their sale as well. The dealers at this show as a group would be far better able to defend themselves with well heeled lawyers that may actually provide the rest of us to a new case law that finally says these knives are not true gravity knives.
I had not thought of this show at the time, but I attened a award lunch for the Federal Law Enforcement Institute at the Waldof Astoria last Thursdayand I spoke to many of my present day NYPD Law enforcement friends ( Captains and above), and when I could I asked about present day knife law enforcement in NYC. They all responded that it is now considered a good "weapons" arrest in most commands. This is the same I had heard a month ago at another NYPD dinner I attended. My thought is let the makers/sellers who are living off of the profit in the knife industry pay for the legal challenge to this law. If there were someone selling illegal drugs or guns, and one person who was caught for possession of one of those items turned in the supplier, he would mostlikely walk away from the possession charges. In the case of knives the unknowning person buys a knife and is arrested with little to no interest in going after the seller who is far more able to afford good legal representation.....
 
ok i know emerson,dozier will be there,,kinda disapointed that charles may wont though,,,
 
la bella i will...nakano will pass by too,,,looking forward to this show ,,will be my first one ,,
 
The promotors have invited me to do a demo both days:) Be sure to swing by.
 
Custom knife show. No more production outfits. I don't know about Emerson for sure but Chris Reeve has not been coming to NY for a while. :(
 
i wonder if reps from ag russell and foster knives,tops knives,wilson knives,tim britton will be there ?
 
Haven' t seen any reps in recent years from AG Russell. Paul Basch was the man in the early years. Benchmade stopped coming to NYC years ago. Tim Britton is a maybe. Haven' t seen any reps from Busse for a few years. Emerson will be there. There will probably be a strong man demo by his table this year again. The gentlemen will tear phone books, bend and twist steel horseshoes, crack baseball bats over his head, bend steel frying pans, etc. For those who have not seen this type demo, you' ll be a believer afterwards!

The website to the show appears to be broken. www.nyckshow.com
