Lets talk GEC!

[DavidABQ]

How about another run of the model 78?

 

[Alex.Y.]

"Must" lol

Alright, "should", forgive the foreigner.

It's not the language barrier. It is the imposition of boundaries and rules where none exist.

Well, yes, but rule of a good taste applies to traditional pocket knives in general, and wouldn't it be some kind of a novelty to have a gunstock jack with a spear blade? I remember, people showed a very few old gunstocks with a spear, but those are more like exceptions.


I personally would love if they make some Maher&Grosh again, a three-blade jack, would be cool. Even though guys from M&G said that they are working with another knife manufacturer now, maybe things will change.

Since when?

good taste

Subjective

Literally Levine's example of the pattern.

 

[Alex.Y.]

Since when?

Since the beginning of the manufacture of traditional pocket knives. They are nothing like the current modern folders, don't you think?

Subjective

But not totally, right?

Literally Levine's example of the pattern.

Oh, yes, I guess "people showed spear gunstocks" was actually about Levine, lol. Okay, let's see if GEC implement this.

 

[untytled]

Knife must be made a in a certain variation because it suits the pattern, not because of the "cool numbers", I think. Also, they've already made a 888222.

But why wouldn't it suit it? If I remember correctly the "2" spear blade is shared amongst the 06 Pemberton, 18 beagle and "22" magnum family of littles. We've seen the spear/coping combo on the 06 and 18 the only one left to wear it is the 22. I couldn't think of a better time to debut it.

 

[Let'er Buck]

Anyone think they’ll announce another run before Christmas? Or just finish up the BF and fixed blades..

I think all of those are complete and they are already making something else. They just haven't told us.

 

[Frank.K]

Does anyone else think the garnet 49’s are underrated? They are going for around 110-20 nowadays, but they are really classy. I think some day people are going to be after them for more.

 

[mrknife]

theyre not all winners, there was a time 06 templars sat and sat and sat

 

[Frank.K]

theyre not all winners, there was a time 06 templars sat and sat and sat

I think they are still sitting

 

[sf fanatic]

Same with the 05s. They are still readily available.

 

[Frank.K]

I don’t have one, I think they’re too small. The size might have something to do with it. But I think they just look really good.

 

[Dan1892]

I prefer the blue 49 personally and really like the size. It makes a perfect watch pocket companion to a larger knife. I carry this combo a lot.

I bought one because I did not have that pattern and it is a Northfield and it is red with a Sheepfoot Blade . Good LITTLE knife but is too small for me to use .

[iacchus]

The 49 is a little scalpel. Nice secondary blade. Pairs really well with a modern or large traditional.
Really fetching pattern, though

 

[dovidola]

22 is even smaller than a Pemberton, let alone a 49. Only one-eighth of an inch longer than the 05 Keychain, too small for most people's tastes, including mine. Would a 222222 stamp make me want one? Nope - I'll wait 11 years for a 333333 Conductor, this time with a sheepfoot main, to come along.

 

[dovidola]

The #444444 could prove rather unwieldy, a four-blade Jack on a Gunstock frame with a spey main.
The #555555 would be a five-blade small Dogleg Jack, which surely couldn't happen.
The #666666 is another thing entirely - Sabre Clip main, three springs, opposite-equal-ended Serpentine 6-blade super-Congress stunner! But by then I will be a centenarian, or more likely a permanent guest of the great Master Cutler up in the sky.

 

[bbfish]

Looks like we are getting some regular production run of the 39s.
