Very Nice !! Gec did a phenomenal job on the jigged bone.

When I got the email about the stag I decided not to try because none of them really spoke to me and I hadn't gotten the jigged bone yet, and you know what as of right now, I don't regret my decision at all. We'll see how I feel in a few days.... ;)

You won't regret your decision not to try, " If something doesn't grab you, it just doesn't grab you". It's like your initial gut feeling about something, it is nearly always right.:)

These last few have been especially crazy. Even the CK reservations for the beer and sausage were completely filled up almost as soon as they opened. Even just a two or three years ago that wouldn't have happened.

Anyone getting any pins with the new conductor?

Hmm that's a good question. I didn't, and I haven't heard of anyone getting one. But I'm sure a few got pins of some sort?
 
Here's mine. Not the popcorn I prefer, but it feels pretty nice in hand. The blade length-to-handle ratio is off the charts.

Do you have any thoughts on why this has and is happening. I am just interested in hearing other peoples opinions on why. I have no idea, but plasticine in grade one confused me.:confused:;)
 
Maybe it’s folks like me who caught the GEC bug a few years ago and are now wanting every new model released? Sorry I just can’t help myself. :)

I hear ya I’m pretty proud of myself since I waited for the latest drop at the last dealer and did a quick scan then passed and there was some nice ones. Will see if my will power can hold up for the next drop. That says a lot about the jig bone as I’m very very happy with it and feeling very content. I’ve got a few other stags on different patterns that kind of scratched the itch for me to.

I did not receive pins with any of mine. And I don’t think I’ve seen anyone who has received one. Maybe they skipped the pin on this one since it was a filler?

There is a stag #33 for sale on Ebay that comes with a generic UN-X-LD pin, so maybe a few were packaged up with a pin? Or it could have been added by the seller, I suppose.
 
I’ve handled 4 (2 jigged and 2 stag) and all 4 are great knives with great FF and WT. The stag appear to have a slightly smoother action than the jigged. The run overall had some nice stag examples but I found most of them to be pretty plain and anticlimactic. It’s hard to get a lot of character on a 33 frame though. I’ll probably get rid of my extra stag at some point and make one jigged bone a user. Pretty decent knives for a filler though. On to the 35s for me.

I did not see this one I’ll have to go take a look. I’d be interested in if anyone else on here got a button.
