Boston Art Knife Classic

Attended the Boston Art Knife Classic October 16th.  This was the premier of this new knife show done in the fashion of the Art Knife Invitational.   I was fortunate enough to pick up several nice pieces and here are some pictures of my two favorites.

First is a two blade lock back folder Prototype from Salvatore Puddu 





Next up, a knife by Charlie Bennica which he calls "Scotland"





The show was a first class affair.  A private party was held the night prior for makers and purveyors at a wonderful old house built in the mid 1800's on the sight of the Battle of Bunker Hill.  The front of the home faced the Bunker Hill Monument.  A park ranger was present to tell the story of the Battle of Bunker Hill.  The show itself was at the historic Park Plaza Hotel with food and drink for all the attendees.  It was a great time and hopefully I'll be in attendance when the show is next held in two years.
