speaking of closed: China Fair - vacation or....?

[an-art-worker.livejournal.com]

Anyone know what is up with China Fair? I went by there today to buy a decent knife and found that they were closed w/o any note @ what was going on. It all looked pretty dusty (even more than it usually does).

If they are gone/gone fishin' anyone suggest a place to buy a decent kitchen knife (big/chopping/prop for horror film type).

I know nothing about China Fair, alas, but a cooking-happy coworker of mine says that the cheapest place to buy cutlery is Chinatown.

possibly closed for bunker hill day?

oh RIGHT! - maybe that is it. Kinda hard to tell what's a holiday and what's not these days (if I hadn't got the robo call I wouldn't have known at all - not that I remembered)

TAGS (Ace Hardware) in Porter Sq also has kitchenware, though it's probably more expensive.

Wow. That's saying something.

If you only want a knife for a prop, it might be worth checking out Goodwill.

I've never found China Fair's hours to be anything remotely predictable.
