What am I Doing at the LARGEST Knife Show in the World?!
Devon and I had the pleasure of attending Blade Show Atlanta 2023. While we were there, we decided to shoot a video about my experience as a knife maker, going to a knife show, not wanting to buy a knife, and not showing my knives. Ill share with you my my biggest take-away's and my thoughts on how to go about experiencing Blade Show, the biggest knife exhibition show in the world.

It was nice meeting you both down there!
Another fine restoration and well made video, really getting very impressive with your standards of workmanship and skillset, still love the old skool shop and methods
Hope i can make it down next year!
I would like to purchase sheath….. I was at that show it’s unreal…. Worth every penny
Oh thank you Dustin, my goodness what an amazing show to go to, i would really have enjoyed going to that, many thanks for sharing. Stay safe
I was hoping you ran into Will Stelter. He is a really good young knife maker. Thanks.
Hey I'm in this video!
Yeah buddy. I wish I could have tagged everyone.
Hey Dustin! What in are you doing ther? Do you want I suffer a heart attach? If I could stay in such a place, I could think that it will be the best jewelry shop in the world! I hope that you have had a beautiful time in that show! Hug for you brother.
Nice! What brand was the cheap auto?
I couldn't quite make out who you said made the folding puukkos. Can you write it out? Thanks!
The knife is Karesuando Pältsa
hey dustin, i've been a longtime subscriber but i'll admit that i've fallen behind on your channel. Dont get me wrong i think your a great craftsman and your videos are excellent, just been busy with life and forging my own blades to feed my family. I dont really upload much here on youtube anymore but i'm on tiktok and clapper, (much bigger following on those platforms) But I just wanted to thankyou for going to bladeshow and showing us bladesmiths what to expect. Did you see any "bladesmiths" that truly didnt belong there, like were there knives below "bladeshow" expectations? I worry if I decide to go and show my stuff off that i'll be judged and shunned by the true professionals. Anyways sorry this is so long, just got alot to say..lol. Hit me up sometime and maybe we can colab on something. Thanks again.

In my country, which is Vietnam you will go to jail just for owning a sword or carrying a survival knife. You can only own kitchen knives and those kitchen knives must stay in your home and cannot be taken out. The police will arrest you if they see you holding anything that they believe could kill someone. I saw a guy arrested by 3 police officers just because he was holding a plastic toy baseball bat in the park because the people around there thought he could kill them with the baseball bat. That plastic toy. All my life I've wished that I could take a few beautiful knives out to a coffee shop, sit with a few friends and comment on them. 😢
