This young man will go far in the industry and it is my understanding that being at the Blade Show this year will have been good for him. Garett is a man of strong family values and faith and a moment of fellowship on Saturday was as welcome as could be.

<p>Thanks for all of the posting Jan. I saw more here than I did while we were at Blade. Time spent behind the table rather than looking around the room I suppose. Your efforts are very much appreciated!</p>

<p>The Blade show is so much more than just a knife show. The reason it is so looked forward to is not only the sheer number of makers, suppliers and collectors but the events within the event. Like the Samurai demonstrations</p>

<p>I have often told folks the world of knives if much larger than they think but the community of knife makers is actually smaller than a postage stamp. In a community you all know is chock full of heavy competition, it never ceases to amaze me that virtually every maker will bring on an apprentice, will stop their day to chat on the phone and help someone work through an issue with making one or just stand around at a show talking best practices.

<p>I have often told folks the world of knives if much larger than they think but the community of knife makers is actually smaller than a postage stamp. In a community you all know is chock full of heavy competition, it never ceases to amaze me that virtually every maker will bring on an apprentice, will stop their day to chat on the phone and help someone work through an issue with making one or just stand around at a show talking best practices. From the makers I hear, I was always grateful when someone would help me. From the recipients of the knowledge mostly the comments are around, I will be forever grateful. From the collectors I hear, he trained with ...............!!!</p>
<p>I have heard all of these about Tony Bose, a man with a huge heart and a true love for the knife community, in its entirety. Of course his most famous apprentice is his son Reese. Tony often says "I have helped a lot of guys figure out how to make pocket knives, but Reese is the only one I have taught".</p>
