I was wondering if anyone can tell me when Case Collectors Club will be having their get together again? My wife and I drove down there to Bradford, PA. in 2012 and had a great time, also visiting the Zippo factory while we were there (on the same grounds, Zippo had already purchased Case.)
I think I may have missed a recent one. Been checking the Case site from time to time but haven't seen any news.
Also, do you fellas know of any or all of the knife shows coming to the tri-state and surrounding area? Would love to get to GA. in June but that's too far for us to travel right now.
Any NY, NJ, CT, PA, MA, NH, VT or ME show would definitely be added to our 2018 plans. Very much appreciate your replies. Thanks

Case will not be having a show/swap meet this year, I don't know why. They had their meets every two years and I enjoyed them immensely myself. I had a table there for three shows but did not do it (but did attend) two years ago and that show was a shadow of the previous ones with only one large tent. The NCCA (Northeast Cutlery Collectors Association) will be having a new one day show in Portland, ME July 15, I think, and two one day shows in the fall, one in September and another in November in Marlboro, MA, go to their website for more info. Sadly you likely missed their big two day show the end of April which is the best quality show in the northeast, try to make it next year. Bill Goodman will have his fall show in Easton, PA at the end of September, and he had a show in April for the first time this year because the old Wind Gap show went under. I don't know of any other shows in the northeast until the Keystone Blade Club show in Lewisburg, PA usually towards the end of February. Lewisburg is a smaller two day show and a lot of good knives do show up there. There is talk of a flea market in Little Valley, NY August 24th, I may get a table to sell some of my Catt and Kinfolks knives there. Perhaps some other knife guys will be there also. The Shenandoah knife show in Harrisonburg, VA held around April 1st is a large quality three day show also, and not as far as GA.

Thanks very much, Gunsil, I am going to attempt to make them all. If I am not that fortunate, I know I will make at least a couple of them. And I happen to be a Catt and Kinfolks fan, so I sure will be looking for you at that Flea market that I hope happens. I sold a Catt BSA knife awhile back and could kick myself daily for doing it. I was in a spot at the time. Anyhow, I am having a much greater day today thanks to this info. I'll pm you if you don't mind, as the flea market date gets closer to get a better idea of how to find you when I get there. Thanks again ::handshake::
