Just got back from a big gun show here in Bradenton FL, about 175-200 tables .It was the most disapointing gun show (for vintage knives) I have ever been to.The first table has 4 WWII bayonets , the rest of the tables ,not a single vintage knife anywhere , no pre WWII knives , no Case 70's 80's 90's ,no Schrade Walden or USA .Nothing but brand new knives. Usually at this show there are least a few (5-6) tables with some vintage knives.Nothing NaDa .I hope this is not a trend going foward , anybody else having gun shows in your area ? Just had to vent a little.

hello folks, randy here. Still plenty of vintage knives in indiana. Been to 4 knife shows since spring and I run out of money before they run out of knives.Don't be discouraged, you'll hit the jackpot someday. best regards, clockman

Finding quite a few out here in Oregon also, gun shows, flea markets, estate sales they're all good!
Keep on looking you are bound to find some sooner or later.

There is more antique knives at Tulsa than any other show. You do have to look for them because they are scattered across 4200 tables.
