Looks like I got a table at the Oct 11,12 Knife show at Janesville.
I have never been there. Anyone have experience with that show or planning on attending????
Thanks
Tim

Yeah, it probably steers potential show attendees astray.
Why go where you can only look when at the show you can fondle????

Wow. So no one here has been to a Badger Knife Show in Janesville Wisconsin?????
They will hopefully be ripe for some new blood if they can get away from the Hooters.

Good luck at the show Tim. And how about posting an image of the knives you plan to show?

I've had a table there myself for a few years at the Spring Show, which is rather larger than the Fall Show.
Yet, both run by Bob Schrap.
You will enjoy yourself, regardless, but do yourself a favor and ask Bob to put you on the waiting list for a table at the Spring Show.
That club has been having a show for over 35 years.
That should tell you something.

KBA
Thanks for the input.
I joined BKC for 3 year membership and asked to be on both waiting lists earlier this year. Bob said normally 3 year wait on both, but I got in this fall. Hopefully I now have a leg up on next spring too.
Bob asked me if I was a maker of tactical knives as that seems to be where most of the new makers/sellers are oriented. I told him I do some, but not my normal.
The demise of the auto industry factories in that area has hurt their economy, but we have that here in Michigan too.
My son recently moved near there from Texas, so good chance to attend a show and visit son, DIL and Granddaughter.
How can I lose????

I am anxious to see how the newer stuff
(some of which Sam and Rick were the primary designers of)
is received. See previous threads here.
My nephew showed some at the Wolverine show this spring, but I was home fighting water in the basement. He sold some and said were well received.
Next sat is the fall Wolverine show and then in two weeks the Badger show. I will surely have feedback then.
