Our first "big" show (we did have our annual mini show this last December...) since the big 'rona kicked off.

I could only attend on Friday, set up day/members only day. Had to take advantage of the sunny Saturday to catch up on farm stuff.
But really had a good time, myself. Lot's of friends seen, knives handled, amazing displays, etc.
Wish I could have made it Saturday, but I spent too much on Friday anyway!
Picked up some nice pieces: another English billhook, a few curved vineyard/horticulture knives for inspiration, an indigenous blade from Sudan, etc.

And, I did see this fella wandering around...

(the knife he is holding is not a Becker; one of mine actually)

But he did share this (which I got permission to share)...

Ethan said he "did not design it, because everyone knows I hate Nessmuk..."

I, for one, like it...!!! And yes I did try to talk him out of it, you know, for testing purposes.
But he said it was the only one he had...


He did share some other things...
But I did not get any photos or permission to share.

So I guess there might some things coming down the pipe in the future.

Anyway, it was great to chat, about knives, and lots more.
Good to see you Ethan!

And I saw Mr. Siegle there as well.

Take care,
Brome
 
Thanks for sharing. It's good to see Ethan's out and about.

I chuckled at first sight of the new 19 too. I have a love hate relationship with Nessmuks ... a couple I really loved, but most I didn't look at a second time.

i have a few many Nessmuks. they seem to vary a bit in shape and such, which is weird since the source of truth left a detailed drawing around

rather fond of the raquette dale chudinski nessmuk

I can't believe I missed Ethan at the show.... :mad:

I missed a bunch of you other guys as well and I was there the better part of Saturday.
 
Ooof, I think I like it. Can't wait for stats. Good job getting us the pic!
