Yes and I suspect the teacher has made the sacrifice by discharging a firearm in an empty classroom, forever proving it's a bad idea to arm teachers in schools.

It’s a sad world when people think it’s a bad idea to defend ourselves
I rather have my grandkids teachers trained and ready to protect themselves and the children.

Sorry I know this isn’t the right thread for ranting

I didn't make it to the show but thanks to Roger he picked this up for me. It will be the first "wild-duck" knife I will have seen that wasn't in a magazine. Thanks Roger.

Just got back to the motel.
Had a great dinner with Charlie and his lovely wife Sarah. We were the only AAPK members
there I guess. Roger was leaving as we sat down .....



It was a decent show. Several empty tables and not real heavy traffic.
Going home with new additions to the EDC pile.
All in all a good trip ..............

I posted this yesterday from my phone. I must have done something wrong.

Had a great meal with Chris Royal and his wife, Chris.

Wide ranging conversation and we occupied our table from about 7:30 to 9:15.

Sarah and Chris (the female version) hit it off pretty well. I suspect they might pal around a good bit next time we in the same place for a knife show.

I sold some advertising paraphernalia, a white bone set of tableware and a few knives. Also have a promised sale set up for that tall tower case.

Covered my expenses with a bit left over and when I consider the fun factor, it was a successful first attempt at being a knife salesman.

I did learn one thing, though. There is a big difference between a "knife collection" and "inventory".

I'm going to have to rethink my pricing for the next show, which might be Lexington, in August. Looking into it.
