Just thought I'd mention this to the group. The Badger Knife show is this weekend and the holiday inn express in Janesville. Tons of custom knives. I went last year and it was pretty awesome. 175 tables, so it's a pretty good sized deal.

I'll be there on Saturday!

I’ve got half a mind to go just to listen in on conversations about Yellow Bark River.

Just did some reading about Bark River.  Until now, I've never heard of them (not a big knife guy).  Boy, it sure seems he screwed the pooch on this one.  Also sounds like there may be a few "inconsistencies"  in the past.  Hope the show goes well.

The show was good. Lots of very cool stuff there. Most of it is from custom makers. I saw a Nakiri I really wanted for my kitchen but I couldn't talk myself into spending $400 on it.

I am, unfortunately, very familiar with BRK. I probably have $2,500 worth of their knives. Well, that's what they were worth a couple months ago. Now probably half that.

I've been to the shop, met all the people. I did one of their Grind Ins a couple years ago and made my own knife using their equipment. It wasn't that impressive then, so I am not totally surprised this all happened.

Didn't hear anyone talking about it at the show.
