Some might be!I have the same question. Are pins also steel?
Steel liners, nickel pins, I believe!! I'll check!!Absolutely fantastic! Amazing work, Charlie, Bill and the GEC cutlers!
I am so ready for one of these. The bone is awesome! They are all steel construction, no?
The etch is great! I love the straightforward look and font choice.
Jack Black and I came up with the name!! It seemed so appropriate !!
Maybe Jack remembers how it happened!!??

I like 'em also!! They'll probably vary slightly due to the complex strokes of the jigging machine!! (I'm no pro!!)The top knife is very flat cappy. Some of GEC’s finest jigging in a long while, I’m loving it.
Soup Bone is a very high bar! Congratulations!The moment is right up there with "Soup Bone"!!!!
