#77 Barlow 2016 - What configuration would you like?

120 micarta, 180 copperhead according to the other pics you can find.

Would lead one to assume 120 green were ordered with 500 being the "magic number" for SFOs.

I think you have to divide those numbers in half since there are 2 handles per. But I'm probably wrong.
 
I can't post link right now but green saw cut is finished on the home page of GEC. Looks good. No zombie etch necessary!

Okay, wow... just wow. I sure like the steel liners/pins and bolsters, match strike pull, sawcut, giant fat clip... perfect!

That green is stunning. The clip looks just perfect. Really can't wait to see the micarta all finished up!
 
Anyone know how the reserve system works? If the reserve is filled does that mean all of the 120 micartas, for example, are spoken for or are some left up for grabs at a first come first serve situation?

Since they are not guaranteeing one will be available unless you are on the Sure tier, and if that tier is locked up I guess that means all 500 pieces are spoken for.
 
The more and more photos I see of the green #77 the more I appreciate them.

I have many knives in reds and browns, and a few in other colors - even purple. But no green. My typical choice of handle color is best characterized by Procol Harum, so therefore I'm very excited to see the bone micarta (and if the stars align, will own one someday).

I'm not sure why I have no green GECs. Perhaps there's always been a color of a model I liked more, or the green wasn't quite the right shade for my taste. Either way, this is striking on the #77 frame, and I love the contrast.

The green on the 77 doesn't do it for me. Which is why they are made in different colors. Copperhead for me.
 
Dang, that sure is a good looking knife. Mike has to be grinning just a bit with the way these are turning out:D
 
Man, these look cool. I have a copperhead and blood red reserved and can't wait. Finished by next week maybe?
