Yea, looks like I just missed you I hung around until about 12:30 on Sunday and then I had to hit the road... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I'm assuming that it will be released sometime in the future in both versions, it's not something I really need, but it sure felt nice in the hand, and I managed to catch one of the discount cards for it with a pretty decent discount. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

If I ever yearned to attend Blade... these pictures have solidified my feelings.

The Blade show seems to be not as much about knives as it is to meet and greet all the folks who post on the forums that you know but never met.

Jeff, I talked a lot to you lately and I know now that Blade 2012 I will make it happen.

We all need goals to ensure our good mental health. Without them it all stays the way it is. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

My goal short term is to make sure no matter what else in my life comes up in the next 12 months I know that I will be at Blade next June.

Thanks for the computer friendly photos. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Oh, and by the way... Rhonda better come next year too,I owe her a big hug.
Your wife is a rock Jeff. We've shared quite a bit together,but I can't wait to share miles of smiles together next June. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Peace.

Dave

Your absolutely right, Dave, if it weren't for the fellowship of all the friends I've made at Blade, the knives would be just a hollow meaningless indulgence, and a once a year pilgrimage to indulge in the addiction. The friendships on the other hand mean so much more. But I guess it's the addiction to the blades that get the whole cycle started. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I look forward to seeing you there, Dave. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for your great pics ...........
Waiting for new Scrap release ............ but I love the Scrap logo <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Nice pictures and congrats on the score!

To me, the Blade show is more about getting together with all the folks from the Busse forums and less about knives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I have plenty of knives already, though there is ALWAYS room for one or two more! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I am glad you had such a good time, great pics! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
