Stay Warm and Dry at the Khonvention

But it was inherent safe practices that kept everyone outta the fire lanes until "clear" was called. I didn't actually witness the khuka-pult, no limb loss, no foul right?:D;). I did see the bel t break, and RR's always present safety glasses paid fer themselves a hundred times over.

After being there less than an hour, I could tell everyone was well versed in weapon/tool etiquette and safe practices, and could relax (soo much easier when everyone's on the same page!)
When I got home, I figured there'd be at least a few fingerprints on my blades, but I could not find a single one on any piece! Talk about knife savvy and etiquette!

At a couple points in the day, we all had our stuff scattered about, and still everything found its way back to the owners, no worse for wear.

You're all stand-up guys in my book, and if any of you come out to/thru Indy, you have a place to crash and recoup. I extend to you all Guest Rights. It would be my honor to host ye!

Let us not mention the BCGs (safety glasses) again. :p I had to wear those for 9 weeks straight at Basic, I hated every minute of it. The BCG stands for Birth Control Glasses, because they force you to practice abstinence. No women will look at ya!

I'm glad to hear your collection wasn't marred, those were some interesting and beautiful pieces (especially that one I brought home with me :D). I wish I had gotten a good shot of your table, for some reason I forgot to snap a pic. DOH! Next year I'll try to be more organized with the picture taking and get a good group shot of everyone and their blades. That would be quite a scene! Once again it was an incredible weekend, even better than I had hoped. :)

Sir, we will have you know that all activities were licit in the extreme. ;)

Us, gloat?! :D
 
OK- My tracking has been slow and disjointed, but by my reckoning everyone made it home safely and is accounted for? :cool:

I can't say it enough- what an awesome event!

I came away with a significant increase in my Khuk Khollection, new knowledge and skills, a lot of good memories and eleven great friends. Thanks again! :)

The "Khen Onion Khuk" that you had: I really regretted not taking a pic of. Also I should have done a closeup of the birch(?) handled one. That was impressive also.

Why, thank you sir! :)
I'm a lousy photographer, myself, but I'll see if I can get the little bro' to take some shots of them. I'll either post them here or email them to you. :cool:

(Oh, and the GH SN1 had a stabilized birdseye maple handle. That and the patent leather sheath make it too pretty for me to use.)
