Arts in Metal is an invitational art knife exhibition. Knifemakers exhibit by invitation only and are selected due to the high standards they set for the knife community.

Almost all knives at the AIM are sold by lottery drawing, with a limited number of knives sold by open or silent bid. There are no knives directly for sale. Collectors enter lotteries for the chance to purchase.

Doors Will Open to Collectors at 6:00 pm
