I'm not ready for changes, and neither is Bill. What we see is what we'll get.
Proposing changes triggers polls and arguing - I for one am not ready for that!!

Just go with that. As previously stated . No polls, nothing, you're either in or your out. :thumbsup:

We don't have to do it of course. I suspect Bill has gotten this far, so would produce one if we don't go for it. We get the chance to get one at a reasonable market price, but as-designed!

Sounds reasonable
 
I like the pattern, that it's a two blade, it's at least 3.5 inch closed, and that it will (likely) be in GEC's excellent 1095.

A couple questions:
1) Do I qualify to purchase? Member for x months or years; z number of meaningful posts in the traditional forum or y percentage of "likes", and/or other restrictions that may be imposed to thwart the flippers.

2) How many firsts of the months do I have to save up for one? I'm going to hazard a guess it'll be more than my $80/month plus two tubes dip and maybe a 2 liter of whatever Shasta calles their version of Mountain Dew spending limit.
(I finished my hoarding/stocking up of Ramin Noodles for snacks and as an alternative when the menu says "hot dogs" or "corn dogs", for example, this month.)

3) Will Debit cards be a payment option, or will it be PayPal only?

If I qualify to buy, don't have to use PayPal, and there will be a minimum of three first of the month before it is released, please put me down for one. 🙂

I'd be in, though I guess I would no longer be able to refer to this as my bunny knife.

Some years ago, settling Australians thought introducing rabbits to their environment would be a good idea, providing a ready source of food in an ideal climate. Too good an idea as it turns out; they rabbits quickly over-ran the country!!!
But it did provide a great opportunity for the cutlery industry!!View attachment 1863518View attachment 1863520View attachment 1863521
In chatting them up with GEC over the last few years, Bill has come around with a proposal for us, for a 2022 Bladeforums knife!!
Most of the ones I have seen were 2-blades, with a clip and a pen being the most sought after versions. They also had matte black synthetic handles!!
Here is GEC's offering!!View attachment 1863523A traditional pattern for which I am looking into a new, improved qualification and distribution system!!

I wasn't going to get involved in another BF knife, but It has fallen into my lap!!
Please leave me some simple feedback, and we'll see if this works!!


Last years knife actually worked pretty well, with a small percentage of cheaters and flippers making outsized trouble for us, so I am working on a better system - to be continued!!

Can we add a Bunny shield?
 
Oh heck yes! I love traditional patterns with interesting histories. I would prefer ebony to plastic, but I will go along with whatever is spec'd and sign up with a smile on my face. Thank you Charlie.
