Blade Show 2004ish

[Jackalope]

I found a couple photos from one of the blade shows in Atlanta.

Here I am with Angelo Campolin and others. I'm the guy with the black t shirts.



It was a great show with plenty to see and drool over.

Thanks for sharing the photos Jeff - is that John B (Alajohn) on your left in the top photo?

Yes sir. Andy aka Doorman is on the opposite side of Angelo and next to him is a guy that came from Italy with Angelo. I forgot his name but I do remember that he owned one of the other shops in Maniago.
The guy next to Angelo in the second photo is Ken aka Autoknife. Autoknife, Paul Panek aka Burn and I all road down to Atlanta from Ohio. We all live within 40 miles of each other. Paul's. Ford Explorer broke down somewhere in Kentuckey. The three of us had to squeeze in to the front seat of the tow truck. The driver, Paul in the middle and Ken had to sit on my lap on the passenger side. We had a blast.

I Haven't met Ken or Andy in person but feel like I am acquainted with them from the forums, particularly Ken. He contributed to my switchblade education some 15 - 20 years ago and I have purchased at least a few knives from him. Thanks again for posting the photos.

When I was young I use to box. Then I got into football and wrestling. Now I prefer knives & guns. Easier on my back & knees.
