Thank you Joe Paranee

Ill echo the above kudos.
Thoough Ive not met mr. Paranee in person, he has always give most excellent Bowie and other knife advice here and readily shares his passion for knives, when ever I inquired about something. I value his knife info highly.
His videos are a hoot. Not only are no cardboard tubes safe in his garage, he holds his audience captive with the knife handling and give good pointers in regards to knife choice, knife handling and carry methods. Ive certainly taken cues from him on more than one occasion.
Lately, as a result of his info both in posts and videos here, Ive gone from making kydex and leather'bushcraft-like' knife sheaths with lots of loops for various carrying methods for my knives over to sewing leather sash carry sheaths with a lanyard for my latest guardless Bowie. What an excellent carry method! Im certainly a believer now.
 
Really nice gesture, Mike. Joe is a ball of energy and such a great guy. Always enjoy being around him. Tons of knowledge and such a positive attitude. Glad to call him a friend.

Early morning, late at night, Joe always had a smile on his face and was promoting knives. The only time I saw a look of dejection was when they were holding him at the door of the show because he didn't have his badge on his person. If anybody should be able to come and go without a badge, it should be Joe. Hell, they should put him in charge of the whole tamale!

Joe, great to see you again my friend. Your videos brought valuable information even to those of us that were there all three days of the show. I enjoyed each one. Thanks for sharing the various makers talents, and yours! :thumbup:

I've tried to reply to this thread 3 times in the last few days, and it has kicked me off every time. :grumpy: :confused:

Joe is a machine!!! :D

He has an energy about him that infects everybody that comes around... I could actually SEE people perk up as they started talking to him at the booth.

Thank you for all that you do my brother... you're an asset to this community. :cool:

Guys I just got home

It's been a long week

My voice is gone

But my heart is big and very grateful for all the kind words

Thank you all for making this the Best Blade show ever for DISKIN USA :)

You guys are all my friends and I had a blast

Next year we will be back bigger and better and I encourage more makers to come by and visit and shoot a quick video

We are here to promote all of you and it is our honor and pleasure to do so

I thank you all and I am humbled
 
Joe, Thanks for sharing those video's of talented makers at blade show 2014. For those who can't make it out to the show, it brings it all closer to home:thumbup:

You guys are way to kind :)

This year the only collector we filmed was our own Gus :)

Next year besides makers I would love to talk to some more collectors

These videos will play indefinitely on UTube and it is just a neat standing tribute to a great community and the people that make it special

A few years ago the nutrition company that I am involved with sent me to the SHOT Show

Besides all my friends from the knife world a Swat Cop I know well and Dom Raso the at the time active Navy Seal where there working The Mission First Booth

I saw everyone in the industry doing videos

I thought to myself that's what we need in our community

I am as involved in the archery industry as I am with the knife world and I started doing a lot of bow reports and similar stuff there to a lot of praise

So it just goes to show what a hack and good camera can do :)
 
I take advantage of this topic to thank the great Joe,I also benefited from its large availability and kindness.
Thanks also for your interesting videos-
Thanks again!
Giovanni
