Lets talk GEC!

A trivia question that maybe someone could answer. What was the last model GEC produced with hand written tube labels?
 
When do we think GEC will start announcing some future patterns? I feel like for the full length of 2019 we knew what the next 3 knives would be. As far as I know there is a trapper in the pipeline but figured they would have officially announced it by now.

It is curious that their schedule doesn't have at least the #23's listed yet. But, if you figure how many more #62's they have coming between the carver and f/f - they are probably showing you 45 days or more.

That’s true, I guess in my mind they’re all the same pattern but I’m definitely oversimplifying it.

Does anyone have a list of all the SFA'S that GEC has made? Or is it as simple as a very low number on the production totals compared to others made on that frame that year?

I think Waverave probably has the best and most complete set of info that might have this info...excel spreadsheet.
 
Anyone hear if all the 23s will be 2 blade trappers or will they make some single blade runs too? If they are all 2 blades my wallet is probably safe this time around but if there is a single blade offering I might have a dilemma on my hands when that CK reserves message goes out.

How do you feel about 1Blade Linerlock models?

A dealer mentioned to me that this will be a large run, there will be single blades, which I believe he said would have a liner lock.

and.....confirmed by Mike above, these will be nice

Another one I just remembered was this Fish Knife in 420HC, not their usual 440C, that are stamped 2013, but weren't assembled until 2019. They only made 24 of them.

Yes , I got mad at GEC last year over this knife. GEC showed production line photos for about 3 days and pulled them. When I looked up the 2019 production numbers , these were for some kind of fishing event. GEC loves to tease on their customers. I was hoping for a #65 nifebrite to go with my Ben Hogan #65 spear blade autumn gold jigged bone knife. It did not happen. I am happy you got one. Thank You for sharing.
