The train we hopped on was moving pretty slowly. That sounds like good advice though. I'm afraid my train-hopping days are way behind me!

I doubt I’ll have the chance at this point. There are no trains in my area but I’d give it a go if I had the chance.

Why does it have to be GEC? For the potential for profit, the chance to actually get a GEC, the need to attract more buyers, the decent quality?

I understand it will most likely be a GEC model, based on what is known, but it seems that all other makers are automatically rejected by many (the silent majority is not included in this observation).

Even Boker makes a Hobo knife, that costs very little, and can be engraved with BF 2024, if people want that style of knife. Case does a prettier one too.

It can be many number of fine companies but GEC is the best in my opinion. The rat race to get one is a pain for many and not worth their time or energy. “If” we have a knife and “if” it’s a GEC it gives the members here an outstanding shot at getting one.

Also GEC all about guarantees that all the knives will actually be sold. Would hate for someone to be stuck with a bunch of knives that are not selling.

I’d be happy with just about any knife or manufacturer but a hobo knife is a definite pass for me 🤷. I’m sure that many people would be happy and that is fine. This knife is not about one person.
 
JTR357 JTR357 they have made a few fish knives. The 63 and 65 come to mind. There may be others.

I've caught, cleaned, and eaten just about every species of fish in the eastern and midwest US, and much of Canada. I've never used a fish scaler. How/why are they used? How do y'all clean fish? Do you cook with the skin on? I cook trout with the skin on, but no scales there.

That's how I see it too. That was probably how many people got their first TC Barlow. I think it was Charlie's way of making it finally possible for everyone who wants one to have one. Still, some people grumbled about not having more say in the process.

I’ve never canned fish - that makes a lot of sense. Thank you.

A French made knife, so that we can all share the feeling of letting your blade slap shut against the backspring when you forgot it was a French knife. Plus, they're neat.

Most French knives do not have the feature you want.
