Any news about Maher & Grosh?

I am surprised that no one has posted any pictures of the latest run of M&G’s. The latest run was produced by Albers cutlery.

I thought T tomas_f was joking. Is it real?

Not real Alex, maybe he was thinking of the J.B.F. Champlin run? Or he was joking

Do people really enjoy these "frenzies"?

It feels kinda low class. Like an online version of people trampling each other at the Walmart.

If it starts to smell like a frenzy, I'm as out as Lil Nas X.

Get out my way! That’s my knife!!!!

But for realz, where do these drop? I’d love to at least have a chance at these!

Thank you for the clarification, Eric!

However, I did found something interesting on another well known forum.

Those turned out amazing by the way, real gorgeous looking knives!

I have not heard that!! Ken told me they are waiting for their boxes/packaging, and that GEC made them!!

GEC's forged punch!! Beauties!!

Sorry guys. I didn’t mean to start a rumor. I definitely was thinking of the J.B.F. Champlin run of new knives.

How come nobody at the Porch got them? Picture was posted in August, which means either they weren't released yet, or it was a very small batch... Or I don't know what.

 

[ea42]

As far as I know they haven't been released yet.

M&G are working on their website as we speak! They will be listing knives as soon as they get it working properly!!

These look fantastic. I love my regular release one, despite it having micarta. One of these in bone or wood would surely scratch that itch.

That said, I'm a little bummed that they didn't work on a distinctly M&G type of pattern/configuration. Their offerings have always been uniquely different from GEC's standard runs.

I am a bit disappointed also, but GEC has changed from the making of myriad patterns of years ago, which was certainly a harder and more expensive endeavor!!
I will propose that the prices would be outta sight!!

Looks like this days they are trying to use what they currently have, and that behavior is seen even within the regular "public" models (same cover materials, same shields etc.).

When I visited the factory in August, the general attitude I was picking up on was that they simply want to make pocket knives, cutting tools that they can get in as many hands as they can. The collectible nature and surging popularity seem to be a bit lost on them. When I mentioned the Rendezvous, Joan Mae featured quite the grimace - I think the event is turning into something that they never anticipated it becoming.

Those both looks really nice.

That doesn’t really surprise me, to be honest. I’ve always wanted to go to the Rendezvous, and while I would still like to, but reports from recent years make it sound like some aspects of it have become a bit less friendly and “Porch-like.”

So some people's dream of GEC making mostly loads of 15s might become reality? Man... Though it doesn't seem that they are at it yet, with all varieties they've done recently, which is good I think.

Oh shoot I need that cocobolo in my life. Nothing is going to beat Charlie’s ebony though. It’s knife of the year for me by far.
