April classes at SFO, who's going?

[fannin]

Just got through siging up for both April classes. From everything I've read this should be a great time. Both instructors are highly regarded. I was curious to know who else is planning on attending? Anyone been to one before?

I have been to Mike Janich's Level 1 and Level 2 classes, and would highly recommend them. Mike and Matt are both excellent teachers, and the class is well thought out and presented.

I have not been to one of Bram Frank's seminars, but I hope to go to the one in April. It will all depend on Spyderco getting my collector's edition Gunting set to me in time. I finally bought a live knife from a dealer, which I have had for almost two weeks, but still no sign of the collector's edition. I don't mind having two live knives, one for practice cuts and one for defense, but I don't see any point in having two trainers.

Anyway, I hope you have as much fun with Janich's classes as I did. I think you'll find them well worth your money.

you got it wrong..you don't need two LIVE GUNTINGS but TWO DRONES?? now with two DRONES you can train with another person...NOw thats cool..
I have SEVERAL drones..you can't have enough DRONES...
DRONES are where its at..REALLY...

I'm gonna show all the attendees that DRONES are the core of all blade learning..thats WHY they called them DRONES."workers with no sting"..the ONLY way to understand the use of steel and live to the next session..
plus it makes a great impact tool!

I just spoke with management, Spyderco is on schedule with production. The plan is to ship the balance of the Gunting collector sets the first part of next week. Gail
