Paul i greatly appreciate the compliment! Sounds like you've had some great knives pass through your hands. Too bad we can't keep 'em all. I sure will enjoy this one as i do most all of the #15's [emoji106]. The bug bit me hard.

Crown lifters have a long pull. The radio's like in my pic came before the crown lifters. There are Radio Jack SFO's, but those are Northfields and have a diamond shield (Charlie C).

If I remember correctly the Radio clips were first. When the Radio Diamond Jacks (SFO) came out the Caplifter etch was used for the regular run knives. The later long pull clip blade run also used the Caplifter etch. I could be wrong and don't mind being corrected.

Both of your recollections hold true for my knives. I didn't get the first iteration of Radio Jack, but got the second "Diamond Jack" and later Crown Lifter:

Hoo-wee, Charlie knew what he was doing, even way back when!;) :thumbup:
 
That Crown Lifter is so great!

When I was very first checking out GEC, I was on KSF's site and there were all kinds of Crown Lifters! I thought you could just get one whenever ya wanted so I didn't really think it was anything special.

Oh to be able to relive a moment in time!
 
Gah! Those stonewashed blue jigged bone 14's just look so good, I'm trying so hard to save up and branch out in my collection. I don't need a knife that size and I have too much jigged bone but that blue looks amazing! Pertinux, just buy them all and remove this temptation from my life!

TOO MUCH JIGGED BONE??? :eek::eek: Impossible! :confused::rolleyes:To paraphrase Dr Samuel Johnson, "A man who has too much jigged bone has too much of nothing" :D:D:D

Thanks, Will

Southpaw, your bank account is gonna take a real beating here in the near future! :)

Are you gong after the boy's knives as well, or just the beer scouts?

That is correct. I need GEC to take a year off from making 15's!! They killed me this year with the navy's stainless clips and now more beer scouts [emoji33]

Holy moly thats awesome. That clip secondary is fantastic. How is the pull on that secondary?

I'd be interested in the pull on both also. I was enthralled by these, saw them on the tour and decided had to have one, love that clip secondary. Unfortunately I had to leave before the two blades were finished, but the single blade I handled had a rather Stout pull.
