Behold, the 2023 BladeForums Traditional Forum Knife

[Jiki]

I’m quoting this unnecessarily.

I’m editing this to increase the level of unnecessity. Unnecessity increased!

Unnecessary

2023 marks the 25th year of BladeForums, so this will be a special offering.

If I’m seeing right, the main blade is about 3 1/4” - 3 1/2”??

It would appear so

 

[K-Lastima]

Of course I want one

 

[BuckShack]

Looks like a peanutbutter cup. I hope both blades are chunky thick. I'm in.

According to the drawing, the main Wharncliffe blade should be 2.75" from tip to bolster when deployed, with a cutting edge of 2.48".

Yes, that is what I was thinking. Probably something like this.

 

[RoyalHolic]

Might jump back into GEC with this one.

 

[DonJGiles]

That looks like a beauty!

I'm really liking the proportions on this knife. I keep thinking how much I like those big blades on my #86 Angus Jack. The #34 is about the same size overall. Darn right I'm down with a fat wharncliffe and chubby pen. And I can't wait to see that jigged bone. This is right up my alley. You can count me in.

This is more the size of a 35 Churchill.

 

[mitch13]

Im confused.
Do we get a free gold Rolex with the 2023 forum knife or what?

Only in Australia where the supplier aka meako includes it!
I can't wait

Yeah, but that's almost splitting hairs, and I don't have a #35.

Go ask Alice...

 

[btb01]

You can check out any time you like,
but you can never leave….

Now it's stuck in my head!

I was going to post the taxi scene from The Big Lebowski here, but, like most scenes from that movie, it isn’t Porch appropriate.

Yeah, it's from a bloke on a beach in Bali and cost $20 AUS with a lifetime guarantee that expires as soon as the bloke is out of sight.

 

[Wild Ben]

Dang! Late to the party as usual, but not TOO late! Looks like a real winner!! Did I mention: “IN”!

 

[Spark]

I should’ve been more specific. Trying to get a stainless steel Rolex sport model, like a Submariner or a GMT is near impossible. There’s never any available at a dealer and the typical wait time is 4-6 years. When one becomes available through your dealer, there is typically a dealer markup as well.

I waited 2.5 years for a stainless steel SeaDweller. Still waiting for a stainless GMT with red/blue bezel - 3 years and counting.

The gold models are just less popular with aficionados

I will gladly trade a BFC forums knife for a Rolex Submariner.

I will not be trading a BFC forum knife for a submarine ride.
