Blade Show Atlanta 2024: Discovering New Brands and Building Connections
The Blade Show Atlanta 2024 was an exhilarating experience for us, filled with meeting amazing people, discovering incredible brands, and bringing back a plethora of fascinating finds. The knife community never ceases to amaze us with its camaraderie and passion. Here, we share some of the highlights and interesting stories from the show.
1. Revenant Knives
Revenant Knives caught our attention with their unique designs, including a G10 knife with a Stingray inlay. This knife, devoid of any metal, doubles as a practical box opener. Their attention to detail and innovative approach make them a brand we’re excited to collaborate with in the future.
2. Berg Blades
We were thrilled to pick up some ultra-soft t-shirts from Berg Blades, a brand known for their quality and design. But what truly excited us was the prospect of carrying their Easter egg knives. These playful and creative designs are sure to be a hit with collectors and enthusiasts alike.
3. Beavercraft
Hailing from Ukraine, Beavercraft offers a range of carving tools, hatchets, and bushcraft knives. Their products strike a perfect balance between quality and affordability, making them ideal for both hobbyists and professionals. The craftsmanship and user-friendly pricing make Beavercraft a brand to watch.
4. Aurora Knives by Truffles
We met the creative minds behind Aurora Knives, who impressed us with their fully customizable knife kits. Their offerings include everything you need to build a knife, from adhesive to sanding supplies. The teal hardware options match our TSA Knives colors, adding a personal touch to our collection.
5. Waterville Cutlery
One of the most striking finds was a new knife from Waterville Cutlery, featuring a Mammoth Ivory handle. This brand, recently revived, combines historical craftsmanship with modern techniques. We’ll be sharing more about their fascinating story in an upcoming video.
6. Esnyx Knives
As longtime fans of Esnyx Knives, we were delighted to see their new silver line released at the show. Esnyx continues to impress with their impeccable craftsmanship and innovative designs. Meeting the talented and humble Evan was a highlight, and we’re excited to showcase their latest creations. We also had an opportunity to congratulate him on the Blade Show 2024 award.

Interesting Stories and Personal Experiences
The Blade Show is more than just a marketplace; it’s a gathering of passionate individuals who share a love for knives and craftsmanship. We met numerous inspiring people, including Craig from Sharp Things, and were reminded of the supportive and collaborative nature of this community.
We also had the pleasure of witnessing the Blade Sports Championship, where participants demonstrated their skills in a safe and controlled environment. The emphasis on safety and training was impressive and highlighted the importance of responsible knife use.
Building Connections and Future Collaborations
One of the most rewarding aspects of the Blade Show was building connections with both new and familiar faces. We were inspired by the enthusiasm and dedication of everyone we met. Here are a few more highlights:
Collaboration with a Jewelry Maker
We met a talented jeweler who transforms wood scraps into beautiful fine jewelry with sterling silver. Given our love for burl and dyed woods, this collaboration felt like a natural fit. We’re excited about creating unique, handcrafted pieces that blend knife-making and fine jewelry.
Aurora Knives – From Dream to Reality
Last year, we met the creators of Aurora Knives, who were setting up a Kickstarter campaign. This year, they had their own booth, showcasing their knives. It’s inspiring to see their journey from an idea to a tangible product. We look forward to featuring their customizable knives in our store.
Expanding Our Offerings with New Brands
We gathered numerous business cards and contacts, and we’re eager to introduce several new brands to our store over the next year. The diversity and creativity of the knife makers we met are truly inspiring, and we’re excited to share their work with our community.
