This is ambitious. I’ve been thinking about maybe doing an event where we bring guys to Chicago for a weekend and invite you guys to meet them.
Would anyone like to come to this? We could have a meet and greet and then go for drinks and have dinner.
Shiba and Kurosaki and Kato expressed interest in coming and they're really nice guys and fun to hang out with.
I haven’t run this by Sue yet. Hahahahah

Re: Chicago Knife Show
Or ........ fly them into Chicago, shuttle them to Madison, do the event at or near your place. We could all check out CKTG, attend a show, have dinner, etc. Probably be a great cost savings for all involved. Either way, I'm most likely in, 2 hours south or 2 hours west for me. LOL

There in a heartbeat!

Re: Chicago Knife Show
I live here and I've been wondering how rusty my Japanese has gotten so this would be hard to pass up.
Re: Chicago Knife Show
I have never had a reason to go to Chicago, but I have always wanted an excuse. I would be interested.

Road trip!
I'm Dave. I don't take myself too seriously and you probably shouldn't either.

Re: Chicago Knife Show
I’d be in for another Mpls trip if it were so. One of my fav metro areas plus Valley Fair!!!!
Re: Chicago Knife Show
Ooooohhhhh... if I had some advance notice, I might be able to schedule a couple meetings in Chicago to tie into the trip.

Re: Chicago Knife Show
The Takefu guys just told me they want to come for a visit this September. Maybe we could do an event around their trip? I’m having dinner with them shortly and I’ll see what they say. Kurosaki and Kato and Shibata are in and I think Makoto and Ikeda want to come. Maybe Nomura too.
