Yesssssss. There it is

 

[Spencergarden]

I'm over the moon that both the single and two blade versions will have a straight edged blade. I just have to decide which one to get. I'm also excited to try muslin micarta for the first time.

I never like Micarta the way I think I will, but I love the muslin. I EDC a muslin bull nose.

 

[JohnDF]

I love micarta, it is probably my favorite handle material behind wood. Wood first, micarta second.

 

[Hivoltage]

What does GEC call that acrylic? Pheasant in a blender?

Runaway Beagle, but yours seems more accurate!

 

[Magizm7]

Here are some different shields...might as well have fun while they are TBD.

I just picked up these two Pembertons in Blue Angel Acrylic. NOS from an Australian dealer! A nice Christmas-eve present.

I know they aren’t the latest run,

buuuut

I figured generating excitement for the new run was within the rules...

Merry Christmas one and all!

 

[B.F.U]

I'm gonna get one in smooth bone, blue bone, or stag with a wharncliffe. I have the Beagle with spear and sheepfoot.

Thank you for sharing these two. The Blue Angle acrylic is amazing. This is the first time I’ve ever seen a real picture of it on a Pemberton. Merry Christmas to you.

[waverave]

Lookin' good so far Looks like these will be hitting the dealers well before March.

 

[Stropping Young Lad]

Yeah, I’m digging the blue bone.

 

[Matt_WY]

wow, the blue bone is looking great., these are going to be a nice little knife!

 

[Pàdruig]

I know GEC has done blue bone in the past but I don't think they have done it recently so I'm rather thrilled to see something different from what the norm has been lately. These should be rather handsome knives.

 

[Camillus]

I recall that DLT trading made a special order of blue 14s and they turned out very black. Fingers crossed!

 

[Travman]

I like how the back side of the blue bone is looking, however, the front side is too dark. Unless they take off a lot during the finishing we won’t see the pretty blue coloring. I am also worried the jigging looks too shallow.

I’m worried about the variation in the jigging from one cover to the next. Same thing happened with the elderberry bone on the Dixies.
