Just got back from Blade 2010 and it was beyond all of my expectations!! The Busse crew were incredible as expected and the Busse hospitality was beyond belief! Thank You Dan, Jerry, Eric, Amy and ALL!

BUT THE THING THAT MADE THIS TRIP SO INCREDIBLY SPECIAL WAS ACTUALLY MEETING ALL THOSE FRIENDS I'VE GOTTEN TO KNOW ON THE FORUMS THAT WERE THERE IN PERSON AND SHAKING YOUR HAND! Every person I met just kept adding to this special time at Blade.

To put a name with a face and talk to you folks in person was a treasure that can't be put into words. The Hogs, Rats and Dogs that were Blade Show vets made sure that the Blade Show newbs were verbally prepared for the trough offerings (though trampling still occurred).

For me, - the memories made from the gatherings/fellowship after the show each day are the real reasons to go to Blade. The knives I brought home were just gravy. It was a blast!

I'll try to get some score pics up a bit later.
