Not really, but Dave's kids are very cute and of course were drawn to the dog...

I haven't posted since the night of ECG. Afterwards I slept at a friend's house and left Philly at 1:30 a.m. Returned back home and straight to work until midnight, then back to work at 5 a.m. I am beginning to feel like a face-eating zombie.
In retrospect, I've got to say it was totally worth it. This was my first one as I am still very new here, but putting faces to names and having actual conversation with everyone was worth the insane drive. I got an awesome knife bag and a WIP knife(to be posted later) from Son. Ate some killer food (especially Johnny Chance's charcuterie), drank lots of booze(Son's brandy too)and saw the most impressive collection(s) of knives ever assembled in one place.
If I had to do it all over again, I would-but would have tried to stay a couple of nights at least. I'm considering holding something at my house this summer too for some southeast members. There are a ton of KKF members in the state of NC alone. Will post more about it later!

WB: "Craig, here is the bacon Travis made."
Mano: "Oh. I thought it was 5 lbs. That looks like 1 lb, maybe even less!?!"
WB: (shrugs) "Dunno. He told me it was 5 lbs..."

Turns out it was 3 lbs. of most excellent bacon. Just had a few slices this a.m. Saving the fat to mix in when I grind burger meat.

So where are all the pictures at? Someone must have taken some pictures?

 

[WildBoar]

I have a few pics of the food table and some of Matt's Kramer, but we did not take pics of the knife tables or the knuts :O I should have gotten out to the tables with the camera before the rain passed over.

There was an issue with the glare coming off of my head that messed with everyone's camera shots. It's hell on a sunny day. Shoulda worn a hat.

Put me down for sure. I'm at Beer, Bourbon & BBQ the first weekend in August. Otherwise I'm free for the summer.

B, B, & BBQ sounds like a great place to be in August - or any month, really

Too bad there aren't more pictures. And I am still waiting for the first one with live web broasdcast...

Well this proves that it did happen. I was starting to think there was a huge conspiracy going on. I mean all these people and beautiful knives and no pics. Great pics, btw. Hope I can make one of these some time soon.

 

[markenki]

Good looking knives. Any pics of Marko's western prototype with the integral bolster?

The prototype has peened bolsters and no, it didn't make an appearance...yet.

 

[steeley]

Nice thanks for picture's

 

[WildBoar]

Nice pics!

 

[Taz575]

YAY!!! Finally some pics to look at!! I really like the HHH Petty; it has a real sized handle and blade!! I hate the petty's with the Popsicle stick size handles on them. That one looks nice and comfy!

 

[Dave Martell]

Pictures - yeah!

 

[JohnyChai]

Thanks for taking a shot of that Marko Gyuto...
