Lets talk GEC!

Once you have started sharpening them yourself, the best bet is to just shoot them back to GEC and let them sharpen them down to the point they probably should have been before they left.

Huh, I never even thought of sending a knife in for sharpening to take away blade rap. I have sharpened some enough myself to take away blade rap, but I have to say sometimes it can take a frustrating amount of hand sharpening.

I'm happy. Out of the tube, washed in the sink, oiled and into the pocket.

What a great color red! I'm glad I have one on the way.

Is anyone else surprised / perplexed by the fact that they didn't do any #21 Bullbusters along with this last run of Mudbugs??? I wish they had.


So I've talked about how my #45 Lumberjack from the 2016 Rendezvous can have a very strong and sometimes rough pull. I have found the culprit I think. It has a track dug into the liner on the pile side inside that matches with the tang of the main blade. I tried to get a picture, but it was tough:

I'd like to make sure this doesn't worsen and stops happening. Any suggestions?
 
They aren't impossible to get you just have to keep your ear to the tracks and you can get one. Especially with 500 of em beIN made you should have a good shot. And then there's the aftermarket if you strike out. Don't be sad, this shits supposed to be fun haha
 
I’ll be interested to see if this one goes over like the last ancient barlow. That knife in the scratted bone really grew on me. It along with the red soup bone anniversary barlows were the only two I ever slightly regretted not picking up.
(ok I REALLY regretted not getting the anniversary barlow. That red bone...)
 
I think the demand will be high. You just mention the word Barlow and things go crazy.....computer systems crash...etc.

I do really like this new ancient. I am excited to see cover options.

And the two I probably most regret letting go!
