The clip blade has only been used on fruit and other foods. Building a patina since 2014.

Well done Jim! Can’t wait to see Bob in living color!

 

[Modoc ED]

He's no longer making 3-blades!!!

Charlie waynorth - Perhaps this foreshadows a slow demise of GEC? Can't remember where but I saw a help wanted ad for GEC for cutler trainees - maybe Knife Magazine???

Change, not demise Ed!!!
As we speak, Bill is filling in for an absent cutler!! The success of that company stems partly from the facts that ;
A - the boss knows how to do every cutlery step, besides being a smart businessman!!
B - the boss is willing to educate the workers, and recruits!!

If I was younger, I'd apply for one of those jobs!!!

I only wish the best for Bill and GEC Charlie. It just took me off guard that Bill had suspended production of three blade knives.

 

[hedd]

I have mixed feelings because I mostly like single blades, and the only 3 blade I own is a Beer and Sausage. At the same time, FOMO!!!

It took us all off guard, Ed!! Calls for a GEC three-blade thread I think!!!

 

[calm]

So, 4 and 5 bladed knives are good to go, right?

They did miss out on a great opportunity to run a 252525 last year!!!

A knife like that may have been thicker than it was long

I’ll still never get over the fact they didn’t do a 222222…

I was a little surprised, too.

A spear blade would fit just fine.

I do remember reading the spear for the #18 had to be designed in order to be used interchangebly between the 06, 18 and 22. So I was surprised too when I didn't see it that year

Luckily we can all pretty easily pick up a Winchester 2851, which is basically what a two-blade spear 22 would look like… but it just doesn’t scratch that mental itch of the “all 2s tang stamp”.
