I voted "Other"

This years knife at $125 seems like a pretty healthy cut over even full retail pricing.

I will gladly pay $125 (as is only) if GEC says this is what we can expect to pay for similar knives when they release their versions through their dealer network, OR if they can justify why ours should cost 25-30% more than almost every 2 blade jigged bone knife they have offered to date.

If not, I'm out and will wait for the regular production models.
 
I'm all in! Extremely nice knife.. WT's are tops on my list! I'll
jump in for two, If they stay like this!! Thanks for the hard work...

I am in for one (maybe two) if we keep both blades. I've been wanting a knife like this for some time.
 
Looks awesome! I voted "keep it as-is" .. not interested in a single blade wharncliffe at all. I will purchase one.
 
I'm in for one as is (single blade would be okay too). Thanks to GEC and the committee for making this happen. Very nice mock-up....
 
I'm in. Nice blade combo. About time I got in on one of these forum knives.
 
Let GEC do it!!

My mantra has always been "buy it nice, or buy it twice".
At $125 I would be down for one (1).

Is this the exact design that everyone wanted?

I thought a lot of us had discussed the fact that we wanted to keep the blades low in the handle. The blades in that diagram look very proud and wide. The main improvement over other wharncliffe trappers I thought we were trying to make was about sinking the blades as far as possible.

I was thinking more of a california or turkish blade, and then a slim executive whittler style wharncliffe.

I am not going to vote for anything yet. I hope we can make some changes (if they are wanted by majority).
 
I think it looks great. Keep it as it is! I'm in for one, please!:) (Oh, and I'm totally down to pay $125+ for this year's forum knife!)
 
I know everyone is going to say, yeah we know Kevin... But I think that drawing would be awesome as a single blade CLIP.

Anyhow, not voting or any of that. I realize this year wasn't perfect??? I do think it would be a real shame to have it fall through.

I'm in for one, I dont care about the knife pattern so much because I am willing to try any pattern but would prefer it to remain 2 blade. If it costs more, so be it, but last years knife we didn't expect the results we got this year so it should turn out great!

Lets not let this tradition end on here.
