There are no loser stag knives.That’s the fun of it, the stag lottery. You win some and you lose some. That being said all of the ones shown look good to me.

They’ve been out on the pasture too long to be lambs at this point. Is old sheep foot a blade?
That's my thinking as well. The cowboy in the back points to maybe a rancher/stockman kind of vibe?So are we thinking that the "next cool" knife is maybe the 81s coming up for waynorth then the cowboy photo in the back could be a run of the 91s, which includes our BF24 knife, then maybe a lambsfoot?!
IMHO There are only Variations of GOOD for Stag my friend .This is why I’m usually hesitant to buy stag knives sight unseen. Too much of a gamble for my liking (especially with the way prices are now).
The other pocketknife forum just opened up their 2024 knife for preorder and it is a Ramsfoot.
On the 91 frame?
93 frame
I was just thinking the same thing. Could we be getting a lamb soon??Neat, so a cut and paste from 2019?
I haven’t bought a GEC this year, I was really hoping they’d run another lambsfoot.

Well they did have the picture above with a sheep/lamb. So maybeMaybe, but more likely just a run of rams foot.
The Oily Creek was sensational. One of there best covers.With another run of 93s imminent and today being 9/3 this seemed appropriate. This is it. This is the knife that took me from moderns to slipjoints. Well not this one but the photo of an oily creek 93 on a vendor’s web page. It was of course out of stock, had been so 10-12 seconds after they were listed but I found one anyway. I’d never seen anything like it and moved from a clip point fan to all blades that were ram, sheep, and lamb. Mr Howard and crew really got this run right. Standard high quality fit and finish with a (for me) perfect walk and talk. The only problem with this one is I don’t have 2 of them.

Would love for them to make another run of the 93s. That's probably my favorite pattern, super comfortable in hand. A variation with a lambsfoot blade would be epic.

I think that my new favorite pattern might be the 59. Here are the standard factory issue covers.
