dang.. maybe i should hold back on trying for a tractor 15. Stag clerks incoming!

 

[GPO MAN]

Not that interested in these. Maybe a stag version.

Richlite again?? I really hope it's not a substitute for micarta as a handle material.

I don't know why they would abandon other types of micarta wholesale. It all probably costs and grinds about the same. Seems like more of a shiny new object right now. The ESPL is really nice.

No Speaker Jack? I regret not keeping mine from 2017.

I think maybe that is an elk, not a Sambar stag…….. which is ok with me!

This is going to be a great run. I know it won’t happen, but would love to see another 13 Office Knife release.

It's quite an ambiguous picture,you may be right.but hummingbird is also coming.

 

[Alex.Y.]

I wonder if stag and hummingbird are referring to 13s... or Barlows? Or more Vipers?

A stag viper,those would get scooped in .0001 seconds.but I still like that jigged brown 47 coming, I was surprised that the plum purple had low production numbers compared to blue bone and desert ironwood. Thought it would be the other way around.stag barlows I'm sure would be a big hit as well

Oh and that naughty corset shield.

I’m kind of relieved that they only have the Whip and the Clerk listed, as I don’t really care for either of those (not a big wharncliffe fan, with a few exceptions). I’d be much more tempted to buy another #13 Whittler or Speaker Jack (and since I really need to reserve some knife funds for two upcoming knife shows in the next few months, I’m sure they’ll announce those shortly).

I was a bit disappointed in the Office Knife #13s. The laser etch (I assume that’s how they did the handles) didn’t look like it was done very well. It looked pixelated, for lack of a better term.

Ooof, up close it really does. Wow.

Here’s a GEC sawcut trio that was made possible by Jakeywax31 who just sent me the top knife (up to this point, I didn’t have a sheepsfoot #77).

Thanks for the good photo. Could definitely be cleaner, and probably would be if produced today. Just a classic case of wanting what you don’t have.

Reminds me if the good ole days of sub $100 GEC Tidioutes.

More like it consists from burned dots, hence the "ladder" or pixel effect. Nothing too bad, I'd say.

That’s a mule deer.

Can’t imagine they’re using muley though.
