The Oregon Knife Collectors Association will be holding its annual knife show April 13-14 in Eugene Oregon. There are 360 tables and they have sold out, so it should be a good show. I've been burning the midnight oil and will have a dozen knives available for sale. As time allows I'll post a few photos of what I'll have on my table. Below is a link with more information:

Oregon Knife Collectors

Hope to see you there,

Lee

I've been to that show (in 2000) interesting stuff with buttons back then.

Steve,

It was also a pleasure to meet you.

My wife and I enjoyed the show. This was the first time we have had a table at a large knife show and our table was surrounded by some really great people. I enjoyed talking knives, guns, and hunting with everyone who spent time at our table. We also discovered that at least one of my knives can survive the fall undamaged on to a concrete floor after being fumbled by an attendee.

OKCA has a number of knife competition categories, one being New Maker. The criteria for entering the New Maker competition is never having entered a knife in any competition before. I entered and was tickled to be awarded OKCA's Best New Maker of 2019.

My wife took some photos which I will post this weekend.

Friday set-up day. Wiping off the blades and laying the knives out.



The Boss at our table. She was a great sport about going and enjoyed chatting with people.





Saturday I spent the better part of 9 hours on my feet. I was happy to sit down to a beer and steak when the day was done!



The winning knives in the various categories.



My winning entry: A Bird Hunter's Special, RWL34 blade, Ironwood burl handle. Photo taken by George Filgate.



Thanks for looking,
Lee

Is that knife blade an exact tracing of one of Bob Loveless's knives? I ask because you call it the RWL34 Blade.

Nope, I designed the knife. RWL34 is a Damasteel product. Damasteel RWL34
