1st Annual Seattle International Knife Show

Discussion in 'Maumasi Fire Arts' started by Mareko Maumasi, Apr 25, 2014.

  1. This goes out to all whom, sadly are unable to make it to Seattle for this weekend's show. I know that for the most part, the wonderful folks on the forums get filled in on the shows they miss a bit after the show has even happened. I want to give all of you a chance to see the events as they are happening by following Maumasi Fire Arts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

    You'll get behind the scenes and see today's "Pre-funk" at Dave Lisch's Dragonfly Studio and Studio 4 Forging Facility. Over Saturday and Sunday you'll get to see the incredible collection of Bladesmiths and Knifemakers that the Blade Gallery has assembled for this rockstar show, their beautiful work, and an inside look at the Saturday VIP reception and Award Presentations!

    So follow us on whichever platform works best for you. Share, Like and Comment to spread the word so everyone can get the chance to see the excitement!

    I think my favorite photo from the show is "Knives and Coffee!". With the black shirt against the black background, it looks like the Great and Powerful Oz was there to dispense beverages.
     
  9. Thank you all! What a great honor to have won not only the "Best Chef" category, but the "People's Choice" as well. Keep those peepers peeled and follow me on Instagram because there's a lot more to come in the final day of the show. @Lucretia, so wonderful meeting you and your husband! Thank you for sharing the photo of the patina. I love it!

    Mareko, it was great meeting you, too! And a drive to Olympia is MUCH easier than the trip to Kirkland... :D
