Unfortunately the one from BladeHQ was not to be found in the warehouse. I then had an eBay offer accepted only to be refused after I inquired about a shipping upgrade. The quest continues!

Still looking for a Sleeve ?

If so gpknives has them in stock

O man.... just placed an order for an ebony b&s and a sleeve. I wasn't able to get one on the initial drop and have stayed strong not giving in to paying scalper prices but I must have had a mental lapse in judgement just now. Now I know I have a problem...

A lot of people were upset by this pattern. Turns out to be one of my more useful knives. The cool factor is off the charts.

Its got to be one of the few knives that i find myself regretting the choice to not carry it on a particular day.

Anyone else still rockin’ the B&S?

Mine is still a daily carry, but I think it’ll get replaced by the Urban Jack.

Mine travels the whole 20’ between the bar and the home office daily.

I haven’t been overly excited or impressed with anything from GEC since the 23 and B&S. I may be done with GEC till they do a run of 43s, if they ever do them again.

I still carry mine regularly. I really like it. I’ve been using it on the weekend, as my sepia TC Barlow has had weekday duties lately.

I think the urban trapper looks good, also. Hopefully I can get my hands on one.

I love my b&s. My favorite knife.

 

[luskrb]

Yeah I carry mine about every other day.

Carrying mine at Fallen Leaf Lake today.
The sun was on the wrong side of the lake for pictures but I took em anyway.

Late to the party.

I like the measuring tool!

I always thought the comb (or BRR Tool or whatever you want to call it) was an unnecessary and somewhat silly addition to these knives… so I had glennbad remove it from my Ebony Beer & Sausage. Now this is how these should have come from the factory! (Just my opinion, of course.)

Silly or not, I didn’t see any sense in wasting the comb and its spring, so Glenn put this together for me as well.

Of course Glenn did a great job on both, and even fixed the bit of side-to-side blade play the main blade had when I got it.

Wow! That comb delete is fantastic!

That little side comb was a good idea too.

Yes, much nicer now. I took a bit of grief from others criticizing the Beer and Sauage knife…if comb would have been designed to strain for cocktail, ok but alas it wasn’t. It came out when GEC was changing their business model. I figured some investors were needed and Bill Howard said:

“Look, I can sell anything I make…to prove it, what’s the one universal everybody hates? … right, hair in their food! I’ll make a knife that guarantees you will get hair in your food AND if I can sell that, GEC is obviously a good investment.”

Well the B&S sold quickly after a lot of hype (notice the extreme drop off in discussions of this knife), GEC got new equipment, SFOs were dropped, and we have the extremely crazy market we are seeing for GECs now…pure speculation of course … or is it?????

Great idea, turned out awesome. I need this done to mine.

Just found this thread after some years, wondering why there aren't any new posts? Since a second run of the B&S recently came out... Anyone around?
I'm very happy with my smooth version of the whiskey barrel oak. Such a nice spear blade and two usefull (and a bit funny) low sitting tools by its side.
