Charlie, can you go into more detail about what draws you to and/or interests you in this pattern? I like the shape of the clip and the swell and curve of the handle. A working knife with some extra personality if you will.

Also, what would happen if a Bunny knife crossed paths with a Chicken in a Can?

It must be getting late. I enjoy being on The Porch, and tonight it was a bit more special thanks to you.
 
I’m definitely in! And thanks for keeping the forum knife tradition alive!

However you and Bill design and make the Bunny Knife is fine by me. Just take my money!

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!!

The knife has four pins when open and three when closed. What kind of sorcery is this?!

JK! Probably a rendering error!

I'm in for one assuming I qualify. Thanks for doing this again Charlie!

What are the covers on these typically made of? I would love to see these with black micarta for the synthetic covers!
 
Drawn swedge on the pen. Cut swedge on the clip. NICE
Long pull main ... BONUS !!!

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!! 😲
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!

Nope, not stirring anything up! As is will be perfect!!’

Thank you waynorth waynorth !!!
 
It looks very unusual.
Whoever manages to get one should be very happy with the pattern
 
Looks good! I thought Capt. Meako had inside information/expectation when he started his thread ;)

Depends on what handle option Bill chooses (can he buy in a 100 tonnes of Juniper...? :cool:)

If there is the post count requirement, just have it as in effect from the start of this thread, means nobody can go filling up space or others foaming at the mouth about 'outsiders' or free loaders :rolleyes:

Full steam ahead!
 
What a great surprise!! The bunny looks great! Hope I can add a 7th forum knife to my collection.
