We attended our first event with the North Florida Gun and Knife show. My parents came to town to help me exhibit. A large amount of people turned out for the occasion. We sold a good amount of knives and met some new friends.
I was fortunate to meet an ABS Master Bladesmith, Bill Deitzel while I was there. I asked him for some feedback on my knives and he was kind enough to point out some fit and finish details I was missing. He also gave me some pro tips and tricks on how to fix them and save time in the shop.
Overall, I had an amazing time and I am always happy to spend some quality time with my parents. I am so grateful for their love, support, and help along this journey. There is another show at the Jacksonville Fairgrounds on January 20th and 21st. Come check it out, I'll have some customs, select brands and a garage sale section.
