Am I missing the new thread about laser engraving? I was going to look it over to help push me over the fence I am sitting on about buying one of these too, but can't seem to find anything other than Sparks reference to a new post. Can someone point me to the post about engraving these please?
 
Here 'ya go.

Just ordered, hopefully I didn't miss the boat. Thanks for making this happen, Spark.:thumbup:

We have 10 left at this time. GEC has mentioned we may have an additional 12 on the way with some seconds too
 
I would be interested in a second if they become available. (in addition to the one I already ordered)

Seconds? As in: lower price for a 'perfect' user? I'd be all over that...
 
I have a knife on order, and would also like a "second" for a good user if they are avaiable!!!
Thanks Spark,

Kevin,

Speaking as someone who got a "bad" forum knife in the past, I would like to see a few of the extra knives held in reserve by GEC until it can be reasonably assumed everyone got a keeper, or none get lost in transit.

My 2009 knife had serious issues that, due to the unique features, Queen wouldn't/couldn't/didn't repair, and since there was not a single "extra" knife I was stuck with it as is.
If there is no backup supply as in the 2009 Queen where not a single extra knife or "second" was made (well they did make at least one second, and I got it:grumpy:), someone might get pretty let down.
 
Did Kevin have anything at all to do with a 2009 forum traditional?

Did the forum knife in 2012 get made by Queen?
 
No and no, but I think it would be a good idea to keep half a dozen or so in reserve. I've seen how picky some of the folks around here are.
 
Here's the thing. I am not going to play "this has a microscopic flaw" with people. If there is a major defect that went through qc that's one thing. A .5mm scratch on a bolster is another matter.
 
Not to jump in where I'm not needed, but as someone who worked on the forum knife in 2011, I think it was a good thing that GEC held back a few extras until everyone had received their knives. I know some folks sent them back for replacements. That being said, GEC is not Queen and I have no doubt that they will honor any QC issues with their knives. They did a great job last year of accommodating everyone's issues. Also, I would imagine that Kevin will not have anything to do with QC or repairs/replacements. Last year, everyone was told that any problems should be taken up with GEC directly and that is what happened. Anyways...that's my 2 cents
