Below is a list of shows for 2011. I am sure it is not complete but I will edit the original post and add shows as information becomes available. I did include a lot of Gun & Knife Shows in my area (KY, TN, OH, IN) as I am seeing more knifemakers, knife dealers and knife buyers coming back to these shows. I included the cost for a table wherever I had that information.
Note: Listings in BOLD are knife shows. All others are Gun & Knife Shows.
