For any of you planning to attend the Hammer-in.
Need a final on the BBQ Lunch headcount.
If you are sure you contacted me don't worry about it. I
f you are not sure tell me again I can check against my list.
I need a number of mouths count not a "yeah I'll be there" count.

This is "LAST CALL".

Note: For you "First Timers"
We hand out tickets for those that RSVP. They get first in line status for lunch. Find one of us regulars to get your ticket....that'd be Rick Lowe, Randy Scott or me.
You will pay the cook not us.

This event is wonderful guys. I'm trying to get there Carl. I'll let you know when I see you at the show.

THanks!
 
I will be coming to trackrock Carl. Put me down for two lunches.
 
Thanks Carl.

No. I haven't submitted my application yet. I just wanted to come up and check out the show. I'm going to go ahead and submit my application when I get home. The show is not a money maker, but the event itself is a good one. The location beats Blade Show hands down. Louisville is a fun town. More importantly, just walking the show floor I learned a lot about making knives. I'm in awe of the craftsmanship up here. I'm certainly interested in being around this a lot more, and learning as much as I can about making knives during these shows.
 
Great place to be Andy! Got to pick up super information while there. There's a bunch of guys you know from the Guild at this show. Flash that Bushfinger around! You shouldn't have any problems advancing once your application is in. You and Dylan lift one for me and Carl. See you at Track Rock!
 
It's a whole different ball game from the Blade, no doubt. Some serious work on those tables up there.
