.38 Special!!

Wow-this is really taking shape, I have been so busy that I have missed out on most of the build up - this is really exciting stuff here - Lyle Congrats on making a Dream of yours come True! To have a favourite knife such as your FJ come to life with yourself and Charlie working on them is something pretty special, I hope to own one of those one day GEC are doing a wondrous job with the Bone Jig work.

Looks like GEC is starting the Chapman pruners now (there's some pics up on the site). Anyone have any guess what kind of jigged wood that is? (looks nice)

Shaggy, I think they are calling it Brazilian Cherry. It's got the little beaver shield on it.
 
That version with the jigged wood and beaver shield is the one I have reserved. Been wanting a beaver shield knife for a while now.
 
Anyone know who is selling those American Whittlers? I've emailed the email address on the GEC website a few days ago, but no response.

Thanks,
 
That is a beautiful knife indeed, those bolsters really compliment the covers. Too bad all the Grinlings were not blessed with the rat-tailed treated steel bolsters :(

Yet another version that demonstrates just how special a majority of their SFO's are and why they are sought after.
 
This is my burnt stag Grinling Whittler. I also got one in Natural Stag, that will be a safe queen for now. I am loving this knife. The clip blade is substantial enough to do just about anything I need, and the thinly ground secondary blades make some good whittling blades, once the shoulders are knocked off the secondary bevel.
