If you’re there fill us poor saps in that can’t be there! Lol. Anything eye catching?
 
Was truly impressed with LionSteel's latest modern knife. Can't remember what he called it, but it's pretty much at the demo stage, but was for sale. I believe he was asking $240 for it.

LionSteel also had their new Best Man traditional in one and two blade versions. I picked up a one blade.

Giant Mouse’s newest Clyde is the coolest folder I’ve played with in the longest. Small, but fits right in your fist. The upswept blade slings out. A must buy!
The Chris Reeve new 31’s were nice to handle. They are very smooth and not too much of a change.
JB Knife and Tool was my favorite booth. He has such awesome self defense blades like the Sakit that are well made and slick as crap. Perfect edc blade the Companion, as well.
Smith and Sons has a fixed called the Desperado that really stuck on me.
Spyderco had protos of new Para 2’s with new handle designs. Plus an incredible Para 2 warncliffe with a very slight hook to the tip.
KME sharpener expert employees were ever so kind at answering hundreds of questions and did many demonstrations.
The best customer service goes to River’s Edge Cutlery, those guys are top notch.
I picked up my first Snailor from Jesper Voxanes; copper with a heart.

Sounds like a lot of interesting blades. Thanks for the updates!
 
What type new handle designs? Sounds interesting.

The handles were patterns named water, hourglass, leather and turtle shell. I believe some colored carbon fiber. They were textured to match the name. A more custom look.
 
I just got back. Great time at my first Bladeshow. I will definitely be back next year.

I was able to score a couple grails from a few of the worlds best. Adam DesRosiers and Claudio Sobral (CAS).
