It doesn't necessarily have to be a Calf Pen, although it is one of the most underrated knives of GEC. A Bull nose or Hayn Helper would be welcomed. Produced in numbers that they are obtainable by the working class as well as the collector class.I’d love to see some Farm & Fields this year, although personally the return of the Calf Pen would wouldn’t be at the top of my list.

I know what they are running this year. Whatever Bill Howard decides.

I just landed this #44 Buffalo Jack today, delighted with it, the first brass-bolstered GEC I've encountered.
Wondering whether GEC used brass bolsters on any other knives (other than this and its NF Autumn Gold JB sibling) - can anyone tell me?

A few “Cotton Samplers” get shod in brass a good few years back I know that, maybe some other 74s too?

Yes, I know there were some 74 saddle trappers in tortoise shell acrylic with brass bolsters at the rendezvous in 2012 or 2013.

A big run of 71s or (non-harvester) 47s would be great. I’d also love to see spearpoint F&F 99s.

Ah, that should be the case.
Interesting that the whole run's color theme is yellow.
