Chak de! India (Let’s go India!)
I am from India, my user name is a combination of my American name Jeremy, and my Indian name Bhola - proud of both!
When GEC released the 23 in Exotic India Bone, that was the first I’d heard of it (I was also quite new to collecting traditional knives). I had to have one. Then came the 36.
I know GEC has made some other frames with those covers, albeit some may have been special runs? I’d love to see them!
Also to be included, any “India themed” knife whether it be India bone, India stag, made in India, it has an elephant on it (not to exclude the other 36’s), Tiger eye acrylic, India Knife Works … etc. Any traditional or fixed blade (I believe knives in India are mostly fixed blades and daggers, not traditional folders).
Note: I personally also include Indian Paint Brush. While I presume this is not referring to India… it says “Indian” not Native American. So, this will also include those beautiful Northwoods Indian River Jacks, and anything else ‘Indian’. If anyone knows whether or not these are actually an India reference and not Native American.. let me know too!
I don’t know how much volume we’re talking here so hopefully there are a few responses as I’d love to see some Indian knives!
