Austin Central Texas Knife Show

Just got home from the Central Texas Knife Show in Austin this weekend.

Had a great time, moderate sales, but really enjoyed visiting with friends I haven't seen since last year.

I'll follow up later, when my mind has cleared up some, with more details about the show from my perspective. I'd like to hear from some of you that were there, your impressions of the show.

Gotta get some rest now!!

Glad you got home OK.

Gene and I had the best show yet! We got home a while ago too.

It was great seeing everybody and we had no kids with us so it was a quiet weekend too.

When I can think straight I'll post tomorrow (not a lot of sleep this weekend).

I hope everyone made (makes) it home safe and sound.

I had a blast!
I enjoyed meeting many of you.
It's good to put a face to so many names we talk with daily.
It was the first show ever for Phil Tham(TX WOODCHIP), who was set up next to me and my sweet knifewife,Pat.
I'm afraid he got a double dose of what a show could/should be.
This Austin show is just a fun and friendly show.
I think a good time was had by all who attended.

I had a great time at the show. I met lots of great knife makers, saw lots of beautiful knives and soaked up lots of information...as much as my limited brain could hold. I was really amazed at how willing everyone was to help a new maker. Thanks to all! Hope to see ya at Mesquite.

I didn't make it until Sunday, but still got to meet several of y'all and do a bit of rubbernecking at the knives . I'm looking forward to seeing more at Mesquite.
