The annual conerstone and high point of my cutlery year is upon us.

The site now has pdf of table layout and table assignments.

Leroy Remer: E09
Chuck Buck: M04
Bruce Dollinger: U13

That is my priority list in order. Leroy, pay the man & p/u clear-handled 110. Chuck, shake his hand and buy something. Bruce Dollinger (BCCI), buy something and question myself as to why I didn't bring more dough.

After that:

Betty Budil, O03, say hello, catch up & check her table out.
Atwood, N18, same.
Vallotton, K09, revel in awe.
Shemp, T10, see what he has going on.
Hibben, J01, meet.
Bump, R12, meet.

Ogle displays.

See everything, not really possible, repeat.

Opportunities present themselves. http://a-couteaux-tires.zevillage.org/images/Shilin_6s.jpg (Chinese slipjoint) and French automatics (I'm an Oregonian and I can buy and own autos, just can't carry them concealed).

Drive home happy.

I understand from Rusty that Chuck won't be there because of another commitment. Joe is supposed to be there though.
 
OK. I've got some old soldiers, 422s with mileage on them, that might benefit from blade-only spa treatment. With ITE's warning in mind I can talk with Joe about the feasibility of removing scratches and re-sharpening the blades for these velox-handled knives.
 
There will also be two other BCCI Members displaying at the Oregon Show, along with Bruce as the third - Bill Finney from Medford and Rusty Donoghue. Look forward to seeing you. Bill I will help Bruce with the Club table, which is a great honor for us. He's the Master.

Chuck and Lori will be at the Shenandoah Show - Virginia - the weekend prior to Eugene.
 
LOL,BEAM ME UP! Like just about all the guys and gals on the Buck forum I'd sure like to be there.Don't forget you're cameras.:):thumbup:
 
I'm hoping to make it this year. We have to go over to Springfield which is just east of the Willamette river from Eugene, to move my 94 year old grandmother. My moms mother
She has decided to move over here to Bend to be closer to my mom and dad, and my son, and wife and I.

We are going over this weekend, and the following weekend to move her, so not real sure I'll feel like making another trip the following weekend....

For those that have never been, it is certainly worth it. Its an outstanding show.

It would be nice to meet some of the fellow forum members.
 
You can bet your bottom dollar that I will take the camera. Everything else takes a back seat. There was an enthusiast last year up on a 10 foot high folding ladder taking pics (his excitement with the incredible & countless photographic targets was palpable). I will take photos of what I know you covet, boxes of em at bargain prices, never seen for sale before.

Chuck Buck will be missed. He was polite, helpful and kind enough to talk with me about my business stuff last year. Most get glazed over eyes when I go there.

Looking forward to seeing you there.
 
MAN, I really wanted to go but I have to work that Saturday. I might be able to fly down Saturday evening for Sunday. THE MAIN REASON is my HARDBACK BuckMaster Book will be done. It will be completed almost 1 month in advance God Willing...
I am only selling 184 hardcovers all autographed(13 people) with a special page.. THEN when those are all gone, a soft cover will be sold(I already have these soft cover's ;) ) and a eBOOK after that.
Anyone want to drive book's from CDA/PostFalls or Spokane let me know I will make it worth your efforts...
