My visit to Smoky Mountain Knife works #1
My family and I rented a cabin in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee for the week of July 14, 2013. Now Pigeon Forge is next to Sevierville which is the home of Smoky Mountain Knife Works. If I were a Jewish knife collector, SMKW would be my Jerusalem of the knife world. If I were a Muslim knife collector it would be the Mecca of the knife world. However since I am only a Baptist, maybe I can consider it a missionary trip?
Anyway here is a view as we are approaching Sevierville of the Smoky Moutains looking over the Big Blue Roof.
Welcome to SMKW!
SMKW is also the home of the National Knife Museum.
Inside these doors is a knifeaholic's paradise!
The first thing I did was visit the National Knife Museum where I was given a wonderful tour by Micheal. He was very gracious to take a large chunk of his time to show me the whole museum.
Since I can't load anymore pics in this one, I will continue in Blog #2.

Great pics Charles! I am so envious of you. LOL I know you had a great time on your "missionary" trip to the Holy Land of cuttlery. How many times did you visit it during your week there? Imagine the money they could make if they added a hotel to the place!! Can't wait to see your next batch of pics!
