These seem to be flying off the shelves.

I said I didn't want one because of the size but that Kingwood looks nice, decisions, decisions

It looks like a small #57 to me. Looks rather nice. View attachment 1423472

I would much rather own a GEC#57 than a #19.

Kind of pricey! I thought they'd be a little lower.

I thought the same, but was informed the ones released today had a good markup.

Less that $70 - what were you expecting?

That's about what I was expecting. The ones I saw went for $90 which is more than i paid for my 74's (excluding the stag). I saw some on the bay go for $99 and that got me thinking retail must be around $25.

You may be the only dealer charging anything close to that these days.

Times, they are a changin'. The minimum sales price is $69.90 and after expenses that leaves about $10 for me - counting my time for zilch. But good faith keeps me sleeping at night.

I understand that the supply/demand curve is so out of kilter now; but things will eventually normalize. And people remember who was fleecing them when fleecing was optional. I know I did back when I was hoarding canoes.

Are these out now?

You and @5K Qs should compare notes.

Keep doing what you’re doing- you’re a good man, or at least as good as we can expect; we’re all works in progress. (Can I get an Amen? )

The ones I saw today were more than the mustang brown micarta. Go figure.

How about a 47 over a 19?

Thank you!
I just happened to refresh my blade forums and saw your post. Somehow with slow internet I got one, even though I said earlier I was done fighting.

Your more than welcome! They didn’t last long, maybe 10 minutes. Anyone who is looking keep checking TKC and GPK looks like they will have them soon. Good luck!
