Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
Awesome show every year. Lots of knowledge and anything with a button in one room. Look forward to seeing you Saturday
Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
General question: has the Gator show replaced the Atlanta show as the one with the largest presence of switchblades and switchblade collectors?
Thanks,
Jim
Thanks,

Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
Just from the sheer volume at Blade, don't think that's possible,BUT Gator has way more autos per table. Very few with no autos. Much higher concentration for 200+ tables. Old, new, in between, Italian, American, and others. I'll offer myself over 150 displayed for your enjoyment. Stop by, always a great time.

Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
I went to both the Atlanta blade show this year and the Gator show this weekend and I can say that the Gator show has the Atlanta blade shoe beat as far as switchblades and autos go by TEN FOLD and that would probably be even underestimating it. I strictly collect switchblades and after visiting both shows this year I will never be returning to Atlanta for the blade show because there was such a minute selection of switchblades it was a joke. If your into anything but autos the Atlanta show is awesome and HUGE but for switchblades the Gator show is the go to. Plus the price points at the Gator show are definitely more reasonable in general
Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
Thank you Tuffy4lyfe. I heard that the switchblade representation at the Atlanta show is way down, and that the nightly gatherings of the switchblade crowd in the "pit" are all but gone. The last Atlanta show I attended was 2012 and a lot can change in 10 years. Back then, the Atlanta show was the premiere show for the switchblade folks. Is there more than one Gator show per year? I need to attend.

WHAT A GREAT SHOW IT WAS... Now I need a week to recover. Thanks to all who stopped by my tables. I'd like to especially thank Tuffy4lyfe for coming about a million miles to do the show ( from New York, I think).

It always amazes me when people enthuse over some event, and
meanwhile it never occurs to them that it might be helpful to list a link.
I've seen this occur countless times over the years.

BTW, how about asking the Gator folks to include THIS site on their "Links of Interest" list.....?

Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
The link was posted on several sites, as it is every year. This is not a new show, been around 30 years +. Jump In your car and come on down to see for your self. Lots of "out of towners" at show, we want to see you in person...
By the way, tons of pics on AAPK.

Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
The few pictures I have seen sure doesn't look like the Atlanta turnout
Re: Gator Cutlery Club Show
It's 200 tables, not 1000. It can't have the same turnout, but it did have more automatic representation... I just counted 17 pictures on AAPK, they all look better in person.
