Watchlords

IWA OutdoorClassics is one of the largest tradeshows focused on knives and other sporting goods in the world. It’s held annually in Nuremberg, Germany and this year played host to 1,558 exhibitors and almost 47,000 visitors. Among those exhibitors were some of the finest knife makers in the world, who brought with them a handful of new knives. Here are the most notable blades from the show.
