<p>Hi Dan</p>
<p>Wind gap is a smaller show, but being run by a friend of mine this year so Im rooting for him to improve the visibility and number of sellers. That show regardless is always a good time with some great sellers. C'mon out this April!</p>

<p>Easton is a very well established show that gets a great flow of people. I have set up there for the past few years and the sellers are excellent and come from all over. Had a lot of compliments this past year for such a great variety of knives for sale across the show. </p>
<p>Allentown has the Forks of the Delaware gun and knife show, and yes there are knife sellers there. Lots of military items too. Its a huge show and well worth the trip. Its like going to a museum.</p>
<p>If you need any details, just drop me a note and ill fill you in!</p>
<p>Oh, and the Queens? The Daniels are great people. Ill keep an eye out for those, but no guarantees on the mountainman model, as I have been looking for a nice one myself!

<p>Thanks, Bryan W. I acknowledge eastern PA is a resource I haven't reached out to, and I will consider it -- Easton? Wind Gap? others? New York custom an even bigger stretch. I view every 150 miles driven as one less knife I can afford. When I go farther, I keep hoping my wife will come along "Forced fun" we call it. So I need to find something else reasonably close that she will truly enjoy. </p>

<p>IMO the practice of sharing "want lists" here is very helpful. I'm putting some up at Jan's link earlier in this thread. In case you do not see that, I am a pattern collector focused on Queen & Schatt & Morgan only, with any locking knife model:</p>
<p>Swing guards #1l, 1 priority</p>
<p>Mountainman #3l, 2 priority</p>
<p>6L</p>
<p>41L</p>
<p>Rawhides, Hawks,</p>
<p>Button-locks, ETC. </p>
<p>And recently liner-lock knives offered for short intervals , like 83L, 44L, 19L, oddballs As Fred says "You can never say Queen never made that"</p>
<p>I have many, but would appreciate help if you find some and could buy or refer to me.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I already put my list there, so holler if you find one, (if you found any, and were inclined to buy them for me I wouldn't stop you). Thanks Jan.</p>

<p>Great suggestion Jan! I would be happy to keep an eye out for certain kinds of knives for folks that need another set of eyes out there. Granted I cant cover it all, but maybe I can help a few people.</p>

<p>Hmmm, maybe we could use a thread where those of us suffering from knife show envy can list what we are looking for so those that can go can scout for us? I'm a little afraid of driving 8 or 10 hours round trip just to find a lame show; I guess that's the chance you take.</p>

I'm in the same boat as Syd. Just small gun shows around where I live once or twice a year. The biggest show each year is about 3 1/2 hrs away at the Wannamacher show in Tulsa. It makes it hard for me to find time on a weekend to go, but I hear it is a really big show. Oklahoma City has a gun show about every other month, but I don't think there are a lot of knife vendors there, even though I have never been. That one is 1 1/2 hrs away which woUld not be too bad.

<p>I would agree, but it does depend in the show. I attend a large gun and knife show that has enough knife sellers that the selection and conversation is usually quite good. Dan, youll need to come more east! The eastern side of PA has some really good knife shows spring and fall. Also, the NY Custom knife show is one I highly recommend and worth the trip. Check out the photos I posted a while back.</p>
<p>In any case, you cant beat the face to face time and experience of a knife show!</p>

You're correct in your assessment of the social aspect of the knife shows vs the gun shows. Gun shows, round here are much too crowded to be able to check out the few good knives that may be there.<br />
I like the ability to be able to handle a knife, before I buy it though and am hesitant to buy from online sources. This is the principal reason that I prefer to visit shows, when I can.
