Knife show Pribram
on: September 15, 2024, 06:06:33 PM
Hello folks,
I guess nobody here heard about the small town called Pribram in the middle of the Czech Republic. Let me enlighten you :)
Every September there is this event where enthusiasts from the whole country come together to see what is new, to meet some knife makers and to have on hand experience with some brands and specific knives.
This year it was already 33rd anniversary of this event. Let me share with you some pictures that I took.

The event takes place in so called “House of the culture” which is public building where number of events like balls, exhibitions and celebrations take place. In the entrance there are knife resellers first offering famous mass making brands like Buck, Victorinox, Spyderco, Bemchmade, Ka-bar and many others.




You can see and touch various knives. From cheap ones to expensive ones, bushcraft, kitchen, edc, all in one place.






Mikov and ANV (Acta non Verba) are the local ones so they have the biggest promotion there…

Then there is one big hall dedicated to local craftsmen and very handy guys who can present what they can do.














Then there is another small hall dedicated to leather products like sheaths, wallets, hats and so on. I don’t have any pictures from there…

Anyway, it is nice to see that even there are more and more restrictions in the world there are still enthusiasts who like and enjoy good blade…

Regional knife shows have about dried up around here since the covid hit.  Prior to then there were 4 different shows that I loved to attend.

Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately there are number of great things that died with covid :(

[mention]IMR4198 [/mention] - Gary, I did not. Lately, I am more into fix blades but it is bit controversial to carry fix blade as edc here. So I am looking around and checking some options.
However, my wife did. Some folder from QSP. You can see that the main requirement was that it should be pink :D





It is very light and I have to say razor sharp. Very good value for money. So hopefully she will be happy with that :)

I can't say that carry of a fixed blade being a controversial thing/gray area surprises me. But I am kinda surprised to see that Andy AndyAaron drives a Ford. I hope Mrs. AndyAaron enjoys her new kinfe! :cheers:

It is European production of Ford Focus, model 2007. It is old but reliable. It doesn’t make sense for me to sell it as the remaining value is close to zero. And I still enjoy driving it.



And my wife loves the knife :)
