Woodcarving Clinic Custom Knifemaking

Woodcarving Clinic
Have you ever wanted to learn
the fascinating art of woodcarving? North Carolina native and
famous woodcarver Tom Wolfe
will be conducting woodcarving
demonstrations and on-hand
workshops to help you do just
that. Participants in this clinic do
more than just watch. They try
their hand at this ancient skill…and it’s harder than it
looks! You’ll be amazed at Tom’s talents as a skilled caricature carver. Workshops will take place on Friday and
Saturday and are limited to 20 people per class. Directions
on where to sign-up will be posted during the event.
Custom Knifemaking Demonstration
Some things are a natural fit. In the
world of knives, the perfect fit is Tony
Bose and W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery
Company. Again this year, we are
thrilled to have renowned custom
knifemaker and Case Ambassador
Tony Bose bring his skills to life as he
teaches collectors what actually goes
into making a custom knife. Attendees
can watch him make a custom knife
right before their eyes. Tony travels
all the way from Indiana, to share some time with those
who appreciate and respect knives. He is both entertaining
and enlightening. This is one demonstration that you won’t
want to miss!
Explore the Zippo/Case Museum
Explore the Zippo/Case Museum as you trace the
history of these two American icons. Exhibits include
rare Case knives and Zippo lighters, as well as interactive exhibits that showcase fun and educational facts.
Check out the newly renovated museum store where
you can shop the full line of Zippo and Case products,
apparel, and souvenirs.
Event Parking
There is plenty of parking near the Zippo/Case
Museum. Guests are encouraged to park at this location
and take one of the shuttle buses to and from the Case
factory grounds. Buses will run all day Friday and
Saturday, including Friday night during the auction.
Tony’s Road Show Knife Appraisals
You've been collecting Case
knives for years. Your collection is priceless…but how
much is it worth in today's
market? Tony Foster, a longtime collector and leading
expert on Case knives from
South Carolina, will be on
hand to evaluate and appraise
knives. Tony has studied the
world of vintage knives for over a quarter century. Bring
your knives to Tony's “Road Show” and see what's made
him a trusted resource to Case insiders for many years.

Bubba Gum Blowing Contest
Let Case and Exclusive Master Dealer Shepherd Hills
Cutlery (SHC) help you turn the art of chewing gum into
the art of having a great deal of fun. This year, we are
looking forward to crowning our first Bubba Gum Blowing
Champ. We anticipate that this will turn into a favorite pastime for not only kids, but also adults. Case will provide
the gum and our friends at SHC (Lebanon, MO) will be
giving away some Bubba Gum Bone knives to the category winners (based on age). All you need to bring is that
competitive spirit to outdo friends, family members, and
fellow collectors.
Meet Alex Rutledge from Bloodline
Alex Rutledge (from Southern Missouri) will surely be a
crowd pleaser. He has over 30 years hunting experience
and is an accomplished turkey, deer, elk, and predator
caller. Alex currently holds several turkey calling titles and
is the co-host of Bloodline Outdoors TV, sponsored by
Case Cutlery. There will be plenty of action as guests
enjoy the wild antics of Alex and the Boys from Bloodline.
Amateur Turkey Calling Contest
What struts like a turkey and gobbles like one too? Why
it’s a flock of callers taking center stage at the first Case
Amateur Turkey Calling Contest sponsored by our friends
from Quaker Boy, Inc. Quaker Boy products are also made
right here in Bradford, PA! The folks from Quaker Boy
have applied unparalleled innovation and quality to the
game call market. During this contest, entrants compete
with one another before a panel of judges as they attempt
to reproduce the many calls of the wild turkey. Compete
yourself or cheer on your favorite contestant as enthusiasts
work hard to take turkey calling to a new level!
