In appreciation of the faithful and incalculable service our Armed Forces have given to this nation, the American Bladesmith Society is offering free admission to any active military service member for the ABS Exposition at the Sheraton Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, Texas on January 27 – 29, 2012.

The 2012 American Bladesmith Society Expo is the premier show of hand-forged blades, from utility blades to the finest forged and crafted art knives. Held in the city known as the Cradle of Texas Liberty, the ABS Expo has something for everyone, and is held just blocks from the Alamo in San Antonio.
