Someone already said they will be spear, but I suppose it's all guesses and conjecture at this point.Maybe a TC barlow with a lambsfoot!?

I’ll dream with you, maybe with a few of us will make it come true.Maybe they’ll run a bunch of other 15s (with clip blades!) while doing Charlie’s TC’s. I can dream, can’t I?![]()
I think that would be a good guess. I mean they’ll already have all the machinery and dies set up for the run of 500 TC’s, so why not?!? The last run we saw were nail nicks, if I’m remembering correctly, so long pulls would be really nice. For me, a spear is a favorite, with a sheepfoot being a very close second, but I’d be cool with a run of ugly clips also. It’s been a while(2015?) since we’ve had a run of sheepfoot/long pull 15’s, so I’m hoping for that...along with the spear/long pull.Maybe they’ll run a bunch of other 15s (with clip blades!) while doing Charlie’s TC’s.

Do we dare hope? Yes, yes we do!A large run of Clip Blade #15's could get me off the bench...
I thought the last run of Clip #15's had Extra Long Pulls.The last run we saw were nail nicks
I think they made a lot of 97’s, more than normal, maybe largest run ever?, but if you look, even these are nearly gone.
For some reason, the 15 Bail and Chain knives have been around forever. This makes no sense, since everyone loves 15’s, and you get a 15 plus the B&C?! Just as bizarre, and maybe as a joke, GEC says if you remove the bail and chain you void the warranty.... that is pretty wacky, since the b&c has nothing to do with the rest of the knife.
I once heard of a real bad hombre that would swap all the b&c’s on his 15 collection, always around midnight of a blood moon, and no one could ever prove his crimes. They say he is patiently waiting, like a wolf, to submit a warranty claim on one of these now out of warranty knives. They say it is the perfect crime.

As much as I want one of these Barlows I’d like an HJ even more.while you all are asking for 15s, might as well throw in a 15 Harness Jack![]()
