I agree with you about the strange diversity of most knife show makers/displayer's.
My thinking is that most collectors will in fact collect, buy, any type of blade if the opportunity comes along and most importantly if the price is low enough.
If you look at my avatar you will see three of the daggers I acquired at the last year show in Atlanta. Blade #1, #3, and blade #5 all from the same dealer. On posting dagger #1 here last year, on the forum, I got a nice complement from
ARTZI stating, "if I should ever want to get rid of it"..... Now that sir is to me a very strong complement. Also one of my favorites persons will be there, that is
Mr. Pendray the maker of present day Wootz, so along with the thousand of knifes,swords,and daggers for sale the show have many seminars and the walking will do me good. Sort of a hard combination to beat I say. Plus I got a free VIP pass that don't hurt either!
