Blade Show 2012

Just got back from the Blade show in Atlanta. We picked up some knives from Brian Goode from BGoode Knives and a few specimens from Eddie Ehite <---The Legend and a boat load of knives from Takeda our favorite Japanese Master Blacksmith. The blade show offers any knife nut a glimpse in to the custom knife making world it is truly a pilgrimage played over year after year after year for us knife geeks but alas all good things come to an end so we bid our farewells and headed back to Orlando.

WOW!

Well it has been a while since I have posted so here we go. Business has been great on the commercial side and as well on the residential side. I was out at one of our commercial customers the other day and as i was making the rounds I saw one of the chef's I had sold a knife too with her hands all bandaged up. Hmmmmm so what happened to those fingers?.......'well remember that knife you sold me?' "yes" 'well after you left I cut myself'........the pictures tell the story.

Buddy Blades Store

It will last how long??

While attending the Blade Show we met a lot of new people and one of them was George Lambert of Titan Knife Technologies and Chris Rosener of Rocklin Industries. They were demonstrating a new machine with time proven technology behind it. Well long story short this machine deposits a thin layer of tungsten carbide along the edge of your knife, shears or tools that can easily double and even triple the service life of the edge. Anyways we were impressed with the machine and the people and we are currently looking in to adding this process to our current sharpening service, we will keep you posted.

Blade Show 2011

Every year we make the pilgrimage to the Blade Show in Atlanta. This year was no different, and the show just seems to get better every year. This year Murray Carter was absent but it was good to see Eddie White of Shadow Knives and Brian Goode of B.Goode Knives. Their work is incredible and they are just nice guys. The highlight of the show was seeing Takeda San, he is just awesome. I was able to pick up a nice Gyuto from him and as of this posting we have become an authorized dealer for 'Takeda Knives'.

So if you are looking awesome Japanese cutlery give us a call or send us an email and we can get you hooked up with a nice Takrda

Thanks to Mr. Bruce for letting us restore his old Remington Sticker. She cleaned up pretty nice!
