Well done Charlie! Put me down for #007

Ha, that was my immediate thought as well.

 

[Bloodloss]

For meako

Ha! Bonus points for the smatchet in that clip!

007 would be cool!

N.B. There will be no choosing serial numbers!! It will be too hard to keep track!
We will keep a record, but I'm not sorting through 500 knives to find someone's lucky number!! People can certainly trade after-market, if it's that important!!
We are hoping this will dampen the flipping "business", and more people will get a reasonably priced knife!!

So #666 is out

Aaah yes but there has only ever been one true master of Robin Hood...and that be the Duck. Yoiks and awaaay.

A big round of applause for Daffy.

I haven’t ever gotten in on a BF knife but it sure would be neat to grab one finally. Excited to see the details.

Great news on the handle material !

Like the serial number idea! Can’t wait!

i am not a big fan of serial numbers on a wonderful brushed bolster :-(

But what if they use Comic Sans font?

I'd forgotten GEC put them on the bolster, rather than the blade

That can be easily remedied with a home made finish

Well….maybe just maybe whoever gets #315 will trade with me???

Awesome!

Will the numbers be on the bolster or Master blade?

It would be cool if they could be hand-written/engraved on the blade in a way that made it look like an old salesman’s sample. (I know that won’t happen, just saying it would be cool.)

Nice work Charlie, ebony will look good, while still being traditional for a Bunny Knife


I like the serial numbers too, though I recall using them myself years ago, and of course everyone wants to be #007 or some other significant number Take a leaf out of Joe's book!

Fits perfectly, Jack, from the very first line!

It's all good, you do you. I am going to pass on this year's knife to lighten the load for those carrying the water. My hat is off to Charlie and GEC on this one.
