Had a great time, drank a lot splitting head ache on Sunday morning.
Sold out all my stock of stuff in 2.5 hours from opening time saturday, then been full on engraving stuff for visitors the rest of the time.
Dont get any time to take photos, but I am sure some would show up in the Facebook account.

The show is getting biggest every year, we have a guest maker Michael Cthulhu from somewhere in the woods of Massachusetts that make huge swords and axes - crazy dude that make impressive impractical weapons Very Happy

and a photographer Jim A Cooper www.SharpByCoop.com with his lovely family (his wife feeds me when I was famished waiting for my dinner on Saturday night Smile

)

Below are some photos I appropriated from the Facebook - more are coming as they trickle in.

Reminds me of the old "Fishermans Ruler" from the late 70s. It skipped alot of numbers making the 14" mark on a 10" ruler. LOL

Hey gelandangan, how much do you sell your knives for?

Hi Dallan
Generally the price of the knives depending on the size, material and embellishment required.
My knives goes from $300 upwards, the most expensive so far is a 14 inches long stainless kitchen sabatier style knife made of RWL34 Damasteel, and that one goes for $2500. The material cost $25 for every 10 mm Shocked

Lately (in the past 2 years) I have been making stamps more than making knives, I have a lot less competition and getting a hell lot more profit out of it Very Happy

Hey Gelan...looking at your ruler, you have missed a small measurement mate...a POOFTEENTH, being one of the smallest measurements.
