Does anyone know what hours for the upcoming July 30,31,1 Guild show in Orlando are for the public on Friday, 30th?
In past years I got there bright and early Saturday morning and everything under $5,000 was gone. A few makers had a display with "sold" signs, from Friday, that I was able to "look and feel" to place an order. The only time I got instant gratification and walked out with one was a couple of years ago when a maker got there late on Saturday morning.
This year I decided to go Friday but I think the public hours are different than Saturday.
I have been to the Guild website but I did not find any hours.
Thank you.
 
11:00 am for Honorary Members, 12:00 noon to the public. Closes at 5 pm

Saturday 9-6

Sunday 9 - 4
 
I spotted maybe 2 or 3 thousand knives under $5,000. (most under $500)
at last years Guild Show. A whole lot of good makers sold very little.
That was a real buyers opportunity last year.

Yes Ralph I was at the same show, along with all of the other people outside the hall with the same complaint. I was able to get a very nice $550 beauty only because the maker had airline problems and was late. It was interesting hearing all of the other makers telling airline stories while transporting their product. Then they got into stories about freighting them. The conclusion was that the only way to do it was by driving to the show. And then someone described how their truck was stolen outside the motel in route.
I never thought of the problems makers have just getting to the show.
