The only shows that I know of on the West Coast are the Gun and Knife Shows at the Expo Center, and Blade Show West, Convention Center, near PDX. Both in OR. Either Portland or Eugene.

The Gun and Knife Show, I think appears pretty frequently. I don't know if the Busse guys personally go there, however, there are a lot of dealers with production, semi-custom, and custom knives. I would expect someone there sells Busse Kin.

Blade Show West O7 was in September. I think this year they are in August. I can't wait. When it gets close, we need to come up with some sort secret handshake or certain attire to signify people from the yard.

I vote carrying a knife across your chest, kinda like the custom Rainwalker Sheath that PoP has. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I noticed this post by Skunk a while back, stating that Busse will have a presence at the Oregon Knife Collectors Association (OKCA) Show April 12 - 13, 2008 (concurrent with Knob Creek - Spring): Fair Warning !

Man I wish I had some money. Meh, maybe by then I'll have saved up enough for a dog or two. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Sharp - to identify fellow Dogs at a show, just look for the guys wearing Scrap Yard T-shirts, available at the Scrap Yard store. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

But, I don't have one, so how do you identify me!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

and they'll probably appear intoxicated (appear being questionable)

Wanna have some fun? Sit your wife down, be extremely serious & tell her you have 3 Mistresses! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Seems like mine knew me too well since after about half a second she asked "Is that a type of knife?". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

That's classic. I only have one mistress. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I need more. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
