Lets talk GEC!

I wanna know if GEC is going to continue the Farm & Field line?

Why would they not?

 

[nickvnlr]

Why would they not?

Well, with all of the changes and only the carvers this year... I thought they usually pop out at least a few 71's every year... <shrug>

They haven't made 71s since 18.

 

[nickvnlr]

They made a few last year. Spare parts I guess?

I just noticed, nothing left to ponder. No vipers? Or...?

Why no Vipers?

 

[nickvnlr]

Maybe the ponder list is done. Is there enough time for one more pattern.
Just speculation on my part.

Enough time before what?

I often wonder if we will ever see another run of the #76 pattern.
If I had a wish for a new run of knives, it would be a #76 Stockman.

That is something I’ve never given thought to, but man does that sound like it would be a winner.

Yeah!
A Gunstock Stockman is a pretty traditional pattern.
And it would be nice to have another Medium Stockman pattern from GEC... besides the #66.

Do you mean a Gunstockman?

Do you mean a Gunstockman?

I like that.

I wouldn’t say no to that. I like a stockman with square bolsters.

Man, that would be great to get something a little smaller with square bolsters!

 

[nickvnlr]

Enough time before what?

The end of the year. Is there enough time before the end of the year to produce one more pattern or is the Rattler then end of 2020?

I think they will squeeze in a viper run before the end of the year.
