Presented by BLADE Magazine and hosted by BLADE Show, The BLADE Invitational is an exclusive gathering created to celebrate the artistry, craftsmanship, and individuality of exceptional custom knifemaking. The BLADE Invitational will bring together a carefully selected group of distinguished makers and serious collectors for an intimate and elevated experience, unlike a traditional knife show.

With limited maker participation and an atmosphere designed around discovery, personal connection, and the appreciation of extraordinary blades, The BLADE Invitational offers collectors a unique opportunity to meet the makers behind some of the finest work in the custom knife world.

Guests will experience exclusive knife presentations, meaningful opportunities to connect with makers and fellow collectors, and gracious hospitality throughout the evening — all in an environment where exceptional craftsmanship takes center stage.
