Good morning,

It’s been relative radio silence from me the last few weeks. I’ve been full steam ahead on building knives for Bladeshow and I believe the effort has paid off. I have 19 pieces ready to go and there’s very little I would do differently given the chance.

As you can see, rather than cooking up as much variety as possible this year, I opted to recreate the Chick-fil-a menu. You can have the original, the spicy deluxe, the wrap, or you can eat somewhere else. I played my greatest hits and in my opinion it paid off. I’ll let you all be the judge of that.

So here’s how it’s going to go. I am still wait listed for a table at Bladeshow this year. I will be attending the show regardless of what happens, but whether I actually get to set up and sell remains to be seen. I likely won’t know until Thursday evening. Obviously I’ll be able to sell some of you my product here on the website regardless, but it is still my sincere hope to be able to exhibit. Say a prayer for us if you’re the praying type.

Every knife in the photograph above will be for sale on the website starting at 11AM EST, right when the show opens for general admission. Because of our uncertain status as exhibitors, if you receive this email and you’re interested in making arrangements ahead of time, shoot me a message or an email. I’ll follow up with another email at the time of the drop to remind everyone. If we DO get to exhibit, I’ll likely send out another email letting everyone know what our table number will be. Please forgive the abundance of communication, I just want to be able to see as many of you in person as possible.

I would not be able to continue to ply this trade without the support I receive from all of you. Matter of fact, there are times I wouldn’t be able to afford groceries without you guys, and I’ll never stop being grateful. I look forward to catching up with everyone in the pit.

Stay safe,

-Alex
