Mick-
When is BLADE this year? (Please, after May 4th) In Eugene or Portland? I think GunnerJohn is having a BBQ at his place on the Friday night of the show...
East is in ATL... in June it looks like - NOV for West?
Portland or Eugene and BBQ. Sounds doable, well at least for the BBQ.
Have Beer will travel.

I enjoyed the one time we went. It's not SHOT, but it was fun (edutaining). We'll know more about attending when it gets a little closer. Peregrino
Mick, I'll be there, of course brother!
Bring the jar! Hope you've made some for this year as well! :D
For those folks who can't make it to Atlanta, here's some basic information on the West show. Wouldn't it be interesting if Portland had another anti-war rally at the same time and those face-covered anarchist pukes showed up to burn another solider in effigy? Just wishful thinking. Now back to our regular programming.....................

Sorry... can't make it to Atlanta.
Gonna be at a Rodeo in Sisters Or.
As for Blade West... unknown, but if someone could arrange a location in Portland, I may be able to coordinate a BBQ like we had for the OKCA show last weekend. Sorry about not hollaring to Hollis about it.

Heck Yeah, we need to put Oregon back on the map. Great BBQ, BEER, Shooting, and..... I forgot.... :confused:
Side note, a neighbor and friend has a grandson who is a hot dog bull rider. I wonder if he will be there.
Maybe one of the QP's attending blade can take tickets for this (http://www.professionalsoldiers.com/forums/showpost.php?p=159043&postcount=1) and sell them there :o

Come on now, the only thing Harsey could be doing that is more important than flying to Atlanta and drinking his weight in Beer would be building a knife for you.:p
I happen to have one in process as well, and I will not get to see it completed until after BLADE :(
Good times,

I happen to know Mr. Harsey is not making any knives for anybody at the moment, he's got an issue with motorcycles and jeeps using his road as a raceway. He said something about 200# test monofilament line and leaving the state for a bit. But he did return my D2, hehehehe.

Blake, will get your work done right after and see what extra i can throw in for running behind.
I've already been in Florida once this year, got to meet Kyo, that's all I needed to do there.

Wish I could make it this year but the family is doing Disney 6/9-16 and Atlanta wasn't on the 'stop by and have fun' list as per the wife.
TR, please do the honors of buying first round on me (I'll pay you back) as I did last year ....hell, we waited almost 90 minutes not to be seated, Ambush Master was HOT about that one.....but the beer was cold and in tall glasses.

I don't want to see him mad...he told me stories from his past!
If there is a custom Harsey for sale, Please put my bid in. It would be worth giving up buying my wifes next gift for...just don't tell her....LOL
Hopefully next year I can make it.

And good times were had by all
... I think.
Martin, Bill, an honor and a priviledge to see you both again. Blake, it was nice to FINALLY meet you. As for that Mick guy, well... :cool:
Had one hell of a good time and learned a life lesson from AM in the pit about trust and situational awareness which I will not forget.
