What's the best way to find knife shows?

What's the best way to find knife/gun shows locally? I've attended them before, but have moved. I'm in the Chicago Il area.

thanks,
Jason

KnifeWorld has the most comprehensive listing of knife shows in my opinion.
Also check your paper (hardcopy or online) the adds will show up for shows in the sports section or in an appropriate section of the classified ads.

You may also see a quarterly magazine called "Gun and Knife Show Calendar", or something similar, on newsstands or in gun stores, that is a pretty good guide. It's put out by Krause Publications, and it usually has the knife show listings you'd see in "Blade" magazine, also. It's organized by date and by state, which is helpful, especially if you like to go to gun shows.

Just follow the trail of drooling guys with their wallets in their hands, mumbling "Gotta get a new knife".

Thanks all! I checked those out, and found this too:

Looks like I missed most of them for this year, except this one:

Seems like it may be older colectables, and not new knives, which is what I'm interested in.

thanks
