So where do you live?

Mike,

How do you like Columbus, OH? My sister-in-law worked there for a few weeks and said it was nice. What's the scoop on Columbus?

Same question for tm - we posted at the same time.

Brighton, U.K., where the knives are often twice the American price.

Coming to the US again around early September and hope to catch some knife shows!
 
Ontario, Canada
To bad our current exchange rate suck's, I feel like the Canadian dollar is Russian money lately.
 
I live in Frederick, Md (a suburb of both Washington D.C. and Baltimore) though I was born/raised in Arlington, Va.

Walker, you don't need a passport to travel between Va & Md, but you do need a visa to move here. They gave me a break though because I lived in D.C. for 6 years...I guess took pity on me!

Bob,
it's not too horribly bad... i'm attending school at OSU, so I don't get to see the best part of town by a long shot..

The weather here is pretty crappy on average.. I heard once that Columbus is one of the cloudiest cities in the US. especially during spring.

It's also annoying because it's 35 degrees when i go to work in the morning, and by 5pm, it's around 70

Victoria,BC, Canada

across the water from you JasonW...

Travelling down the coast to the Bay area this summer and hope to get in some training and foolin' around and like that, if i can connect with anyone.

(I've been invited to Keatings JumpGate opening but it's a way to pricey...) Does anyone ese know of something or is that a new topic?

I live one hour due south of Chicago near the banks of the Kankakee River. I see there are some others from Illinois and nearby Indiana posted here (and probably other lurkers as well) Lets get in touch. Knife guys need to stick together.

Just to prompt curiosity, here's my address

Bob,

I'll second Tom's opinion of Columbus. Its a nice place...not too bad as far as cities go. You can leave downtown and be out in farmland within 20 minutes, just as long as you're not trying it during rush hour. Cols has a symphony orchestra, a ballet troupe, we get a decent selection of musical artists coming through...no major league sports, though, unless you count soccer. Hockey in 2 years, though...best part is that you get a lot of big-city perks without being completely stiffled with big city crap. And Columbus is just beginning to enter urban-sprawl mode...so the landscape for miles around does NOT look like the Baltimore-Washington corridor.

Still have yet to find a good knife shop, however.

Lived entire life in El Reno, OK, until the Rock Island Railroad started going bankrupt and I entered the Air Force. Currently live in the CEREAL STATE -- CALIFORNIA. The people here that aren't fruits and flakes are NUTS!!! Plan on retiring this year after 24 plus years of service and moving back to Edmond, OK, a suburb of Oklahoma City. GO SOONERS!!! After all, they have the best team that money can buy...or used to anyway.
 
Kent. The garden of England.

Where, yes, the knives do cost twice as much as in the US and even a Calypso Jnr. is enough to scare the sheeple!
 
I'm from Coos Bay Oregon originally as the post Farther up. Marshfield, Class of 80. Now in Oklahoma City (Tinker AFB). Favorite place, Great Falls Montana. Want to move back there ASAP.

Blade,

Don't know longitude and latitude, but you've got to be pretty close to Joliet. I lived a little south of there in Manhattan for a couple of years a long long time ago. I remember the Kankakee River. Small world.
 
Born in Frankfort, KY and spent 13 years in Lexington, KY. For all you KY folks that means I'm from Franklin Co. and lived in Fayette Co. If you have to ask why I included that you've never been to Kentucky. I moved to Cincinnati OH right about the time that I started posting here. I'm only a few miles from KY but it might as well be 200 from the attitude difference. I'm learning to like Cincy, though, slowly. "The sun shines bright on my old...." oh never mind!

Spark,
Were you born and raised in Louisville? I have several friends there. I new I liked you!
