Blade Show…

Blade Show management has emailed us and advised they have moved the Show to August 7th – 9th, 2020, after they had sent us (and all exhibitors) this in an email a couple of weeks ago, and I quote,

“We sincerely thank all the exhibitors who participated in our survey regarding a possible date change. The response and feedback was overwhelming and we appreciate your input.
Upon further discussion with all our partners, we feel moving the date back three weeks will put more strain on exhibitors and attendees in regards to flight changes, hotel reservation changes, etc.
Please note, prior to sending out the date change scenario survey, we had already inquired about Show dates in later months, and the Cobb Galleria has nothing available.
Within the next couple of weeks, we will make a final decision on whether we host the show on its regularly scheduled dates or cancel completely.”

This is contrary to what they have now sent out and seems that they do not want to loose money; however, this will definitely impact the crowd that would usually attend, which means it impacts our income.

So, I regretfully and frustratingly inform everyone that Furey’s Urban Combat Knives-Unlimited will not be attending these new dates as it interferes with other engagements.

We will be there in 2021 as I am having Blade Show management transfer the exhibitors fees to reserve the 2021 show. I’m very sorry and hope everyone understands.

The stock I have been building for this show will eventually be put up for sale on the website. I will send out another announcement when this occurs.

Thank you, Denny

Welcome to Furey’s Urban Combat Knives – Unlimited©

I want to welcome you to Furey’s Urban Combat Knives – Unlimited, a veteran owned and operated business.

BIO:

My name is Denny Furey and I am a full-time custom bladesmith, knife maker, and designer located in Spring, Texas. I specialize in self defense, fighting, military, and first responder oriented edged weapons, knives, and tools.  However, I also design and make hunting, kitchen, and EDC knives, as well.

I am a military veteran of Operations Desert Shield/Storm/Provide Comfort and the Global War on Terrorism, having served 14-years (both active duty and reserves) in the United States Air Force Security Police/Forces as a Non-Commissioned Officer. I also served 20-years as law enforcement officer, having worked numerous aspects of the job, ranging from patrolman to chief of police in the state of Oklahoma.  I served in the capacity as a Senior SWAT Commander, Operator and Instructor, developing curriculum, to include edged weapons use, defense and application for SWAT schools and defensive tactics/combatives.

I have been a life-long martial arts and combatives student, practitioner, and instructor; still serving as an instructor upon request (Furey Combatives & Martial Arts Systems of Self Defense).  This background is what started me on the road to become an avid knife collector, edged weapons student, and instructor.

After relocating from Oklahoma to Texas, a close friend and a professional knife maker suggested I try my hand at making blades as well, due to my background.  I jumped in with both feet and found I had an affinity at developing and producing quality, purpose driven knives. I have been mentored by two extremely talented blade makers, as well as completed collaboration builds with other professional bladesmiths and makers.

I am certified as a LoneStar Maker with the Texas Knifemaker’s Guild and an apprentice Bladesmith with the American Bladesmith Society.
