Hi all; first for the disappointing news, there were no Wiener Dogs, and while I was told there was one Scrap Muk, someone else must have gotten there first because I never saw it. They had Chopwielers, but no Mastiffs (hope springs eternal), there were also no DFLEs, although there were Dog Fathers in tanker gray and tan. So, many people got left out in the cold, but I was able to score some things:

1) myketheknife, as Myke noted, I was able to arrange a Mud Puppy -- Busse Combat will bill him and ship the knife to him.

2) fastcamo: Sorry

3) damon: Also sorry.

4) Silverback: Failing to be able to fill a request is one of the more frustrating aspects of attempting to proxy; sorry.

5) darkaether:
I was able to get a hand-shaped Micarta NMSFNO -- they also had a nice black/tan hand-shaped G10 handled NMSFNO, but the difference in appearance wouldn't have been worth the extra $60 to me and I liked the way the canvas Micarta felt better, so that's what I chose. They had multiple satin-finish SJTACs, and I wasn't sure which handles I liked best, so I moved along to the next table (where I found the NMSFNO and a SARsquatch) while I considered it -- by the time I turned around to look again, all the satin SJTACs were gone.

Funny thing about that SARsquatch; last show I specifically remember Garth saying that those were the last of the SARsquatch blanks, so I didn't think there was any chance they'd have one -- it just goes to show you.

They only had one Vex and it was a custom ground blade, similar to one Jeff Forbush landed at the last show, that I wanted for myself -- if they'd had any more Vexes, I'd have been able to get you one. Sorry about that and dropping the ball on a SJTAC, but I think you'll really like the NMSFNO and SARsquatch.

6) KENKEN: I wasn't able to get a NMFBM; I'm told that there were two, both with sandstorm G10 handles and that the same guy grabbed them both, but I never actually saw them. They would have been on the same table with darkaether's NMSFNO and SARsquatch. Sorry that I didn't get there sooner, but I was grabbing other stuff along the way. I called, and (as we discussed) Busse Combat will be processing a Tanker gray Dog Father order for you.

7) sumoj275: I got you a Regulator LE

8) lazi: Sorry, no Muks

9) rainwalker: They filled out paperwork to have a Choiless BOSS Jack sent to you. The deal with BOSS Jacks is that the three prototypes were brought to Knob Creek, but they are not for sale. They are taking orders for them -- if I'd bought one for myself, I'd have needed to pay a $40 down-payment, but they didn't make me do that for yours -- I don't know details of how they'll process the payment, but the paperwork was filled out and they'll get in touch with you.

10) Private Klink: Same deal as Jeff -- your paperwork was filled out by Stewart and the order will be processed by the shop.

11) md02geist: Stewart filled out an order over the phone.

12) RN: One more time, sorry, no Muks

13) RAISIN-CAIN: Dog Father -- I prefer Tanker over Tan, so that's what I got for you.

For those interested, and/or may be having someone else proxy for them, there are some "Show Specials"; they normally do that sort of thing at Blade, but I don't recall ever seeing them at Knob Creek. They are:

Terror Monkey BOSS Street: normally, $227 / KC show price, $197
Terror Monkey Desert Storm Fighter: normally, $257 / KC show price, $237
BOSS Jacks: normally, $317 / KC show price, $277
Competition finish BWM: normally, $387 / KC show price, $347
Regulator LE: normally, $139.95 / KC show price, $129.95

Some of the "Show Special" knife quantities are quite low (for instance, I got their last Competition finish BWM). If/when they run out of those knives, they'll take orders with a down payment, as with the BOSS Jack orders. They'll also be doing another 'ganza soon, although you'll obviously get better prices from Knob Creek if you can swing it.

I've never seen knives sell so quickly -- I honestly think that they may have sold half their stock tonight. Excluding the orders that the Busse Combat is processing per prior arrangements, my bill was just over $3200, and I saw a couple people spend more than twice as much as me. Of that, an NMSFNO, a SARsquatch, a Regulator LE and a Dog Father are for other people, but that still leaves a lot of that on me. I need to review my bill, drink some alka-seltzer, and go to bed. I'll check back in tomorrow.
