Some cool people who we met at SHOT 2009
on: January 27, 2009, 04:39:27 AM


Warren Osborne, custom knife designer working often with Benchmade



Stuart Leatherman- the big man's son



Mikey (665ae) and Andy (EODTech)



Mikey (665ae), Johnny (Latino_Heat) and I can't remember the snake's name.



Joezilla, moderator of the Multitool Forum on Knifeforums.com



The infamous Cutlery Girl



Knife designing legend Blackie Collins



Ben Nyssen, Product Design Engineer and Stephanie Murphy, Brand Manager, both from Gerber



Lisa from WengerNA



Tom Stokes, designer with CRKT/ID Works



The Victorinox crowd- Cutlery Girl, Jeff Hoff, Renee, Rick Taggart and Mike Smith (not to be confused with our own Mike Smithson!)



Jim Nowka, owner of Knifeforums.com



Mike and a couple of girls who wanted him to come to their party.



The woman Mikey woke up next to and couldn't get rid of.

There were lots more we didn't get pictures of unfortunately.  It was a great weekend, and I'm looking forward to next year!

Any chance next time we can come back after hours with a few beers and see if we can speed up that train a bit? :P

That dummy sat on a little cart that was radio controlled.  He would wander around the aisle when traffic was slow.  I kept wanting to tackle the darn thing.

No, but Def should tell you about the people we did drink with after the show.  Their part of the reason I became an alcoholic in 4 days.

I think derailing it is a must... it just wouldn't be as fun if we didn't crash it.
