That Wharncliffe blade is just screaming out to me. Gotta resist.....

Well worth getting a Seahorse, and there's a lot of choice in scales. I think there are always rumours of a cv one but it could be just rumours...

That's it Primble an Old Schatt in Wormgroove, thank you for liking it!

I've noticed those #47's seem to be very popular yet GEC doesn't make them anymore. Any hope they'll make them again?

Can you give me a hint as to the vendor? None of the ones I've checked had any #47 Vipers available.

It realy is great looking knife with a long history behind it ca. 1930 or older.

They are not yet available. I sent you a visitor message with a link to the vendor's page.

Here's the sheepsfoot and wharncliffe blades on GEC's #66, #81, #82, and #53 stock and cattle knives.

Thanks!

I do try to purchase from BF-approved vendors.

Sadly it looks like there is no availability date, just a list of products which will be produced in 2014.

GEC already has the bolster and blade made for the #47. You can see them on the What's Happening page.

A chinese-made Kershaw lockback with sheepsfoot blade. Fit and finish is superb and it came hair-popping sharp. Worth every cent of the 12 bucks I paid for it.
