Blade Forums Spring Street Barlow (BF Knife 2021)

My Forum knife finally arrived in my mailbox yesterday. A picture in the style (very poorly) of the man who brought this knife to fruition and ensured those of us in Canada got one. Thank you Charlie!! And thanks to Barry for getting the Canadian knives to Charlie.

I think we either have to give up on our feeling towards the cheaters, or give up on having a GEC Forum knife.
The cheaters are here to stay and will probably get worse every year. The only way to shut them down is to not offer them anything.
Either that, or we just stop getting upset and frustrated by them. Don't see any formula that will give us a GEC Forum Knife and keep all the cheaters away.

Unfortunately you’re correct sir. This is the nature of anything desirable and sought after. It doesn’t matter the niche or market, cheaters, opportunistic flippers will always be around.

It’s a little disappointing to see something that’s meant for a small group of folks to enjoy be hoarded up and sold for profit but I truly think we shouldn’t let a few bad apples taint the tree.

This was my first forum knife and after I started using my “S” I quickly realized this is quite possibly one of my all time favorite traditional knives ever and I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to enjoy such a great knife if it wasn’t for this community and our annual forum knife.

I enjoy this community a lot and it sucks seeing folks disappointed and reading talks of discontinuing this awesome annual forum knife tradition.
 
Could it be that the tubes in the pic are the ones that have been sent out to us...? Im no mathematician but the numberon that shelf looks like 50% of the entire run .... but in true meako fashion I have another even more preposterous theory....he is a tube counterfeiter who makes exact replicas of knife tubes just for fun...
