Record Breaking BLADE Show!!!!! . . . . .

In spite of our best efforts, and the fact that we brought over 300 more knives than last year, the trough was totally decimated!!!! :eek:

We were completely SOLD OUT after the 10:00 AM Saturday morning offer. Had we not held blades back for the Saturday morning offering, we would have been completely sold out on Friday!!!. . . .:eek:

So, what changed. . . what was the difference? :confused:

Well, the ONLY thing that changed on our end was the Busse BLADE Show Command! ! ! . . . .:eek:

With Amy gone and myself not being able to attend at the last minute . . . . Garth and Lexi took charge!!!

They took the reins and with the the Busse Knife Group Booth Crew in high gear, they knocked one out of the park!! :eek: :D

I'll admit that I was a bit nervous about Lexi not having years of experience with the show, but from the reports that I have been receiving from our customers, she, Pokey, and Laura did a phenomenal job of getting everyone squared away!!!

Tons of compliments about the entire Busse crew and the much more relaxed atmosphere have led me to believe that I should have stayed home years ago and drank from afar!!!!! :thumbup: :D

So, here's a gigantic THANKS to all who made up the Busse Knife Group Booth Crew!!!!! . . . AND an even bigger thanks to all who make up our incredible family of customers. . . . The genuine camaraderie is unparalleled.

Next year we're going to bring a ton more . . . and I'm going to sit at the bar and do what I do best!!! :D

Let's Drink!! :thumbup:

Jerry
:D

Congratulations on a great show.

I look forward to getting down to Blade again sometime, drinking your booze and smoking your cigars.
 
when you have a great product, and great people behind the product, even in this economy, you are going to do well, Congratulations Boss! Now its time for a celebration Ganzaa! :)
 
I heard they told ever buyer "free bottle" with every purchase. Then they gave everyone a card with your home address.


On the news I heard a report about a bunch of Porkish zombies headed to your house in a mass of Infi and Thirst!
 
Congrats. There was something special about this year and numerous other people said the same thing
 
A huge Thank You back to you and the crew at the show. We had an incredible time. I look forward to next year.

Great news Boss! One of these years I'll have to make the trip down to shake the Man's hand.

Hah! Ganzaa? The Boss just said there's nothing left! Maybe he has a secret stash........
 
They did a great job.

They should get a raise
 
Very glad to hear the news, glad you guys had a great show!

I'm hearing very good reports about this years show from all sectors....so sad I had to miss it this year.
 
Ohhhh - Sit at the bar with Jerry or actually go into the show........Ohhhhh boy - that might be a hard decision.....

Can we have an open bar at The Trough????!!! :D:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

And congratulations to the entire Busse Krew! Sounds like a lot of hard work and superb execution!
 
That's awesome Jerry. I'm so glad everything worked out for the show. We're so bummed about missing out! :(

I hope everything is ok at home too.
 
Well what do you expect when you are buyin all the beer? Ill gladly blow a cpl grand for some free beers man : ) thanks Jerry and congrats on the record. Doesnt surprise me, your crew had everythin on lock down and the knives, simply awesome.
 
I have never seen the crew get people taken care of after the offerings as fast as they did this year.
WOW!,there were blades held back for Saturday?The customs went like wildfire this year.
 
Wow that's amazing! That's what happens when you offer an outstanding product. I'll drink to that... wish I had been able to make it!
 
Congrats to the entire crew. One day I'll make it there and join in all the festivities!
 
And that old saying comes to mind....
