Letter to the Membership

 

Dear ABS Members,

In recent weeks I, like many of you, have heard rumors of a so-called Super Knife Show, which would take place in 2013.  Let me assure you that this rumor, like most rumors, has no factual basis.  None.  Zero.

 

At the same time I want to assure you that the ABS Board of Directors is looking into more than one possible knife exhibition for the year 2014, and if and when the Board makes a decision which will best serve the future of the ABS, you will be  the first to learn of this.

 

In the meantime, let us all do the best we can to support the upcoming ABS All Forged Blade Expo in San Antonio in January 2013.  This is a quality show in an excellent venue just a few blocks from the Alamo, with any number of fine restaurants in the downtown area.

 

Sincerely,

 

Dr. James Batson

President, American Bladesmith Society
