Very nice!

I'd love it if someone could DM me the Waynorth Cutlery dealers. I had a list and it seems to have dissappeared.

Another great offering and collaboration involving two of our favorite names!!!
It's curve-a-licious.

Despite a few leaks, most haven't seen my new SFO!!! View attachment 3009853
I like the curve of the "Belly" knives, but thought this single-blade deserved a new name, hence the Bison!!
I love how the shape provides great grip, and protects the blade, tip and tang, from being exposed in the pocket, where it sits quite nicely!!
GEC is sending them out very soon, so please contact your favorite dealer(s) soon. I don't have prices yet but will have them very soon. Please don't contact me, as I am only supplying Canadians. You all know by now who is going to have them!! I hope you like them!!!

I was looking at some stan Shaw knives using this handle pattern but it doesn't say what name he applies to it,I have seen a 2 and 3 blade but none that compares to the 88 which is why maybe it's a ppp.

Stan Shaw did make a "Sowbelly" for Ibberson in 1974!!This one was pretty high-end, with pre-ban handles, and Stan's signature filework!!

A bit of an aside . . . . . . . AusLoX sent me a picture of a Case he had, and asked me if it was the inspiration for the Bison Belly!!!??
I was shocked and amazed!! It looks like a knife that Tony Bose might have cooked up for one of his hardware store "events" back in 2015-2016!!!
It has his signature marked on the blade, and has the usual Case "TB"marking on it!! I do not recall seeing this knife before, but maybe it planted a seed several years ago (almost 10 years!!)
Austin felt my amazement I think, because he sent me the knife, complete with the box!! Thanks so much, Austin!!!

 

[TwistedHollow]

I’m really like this!

You’re very welcome Charlie! Can’t wait to see some comparison photos. And all of this happening during a month to honor the late Mr. Bose.

Looking real good Charlie, congrats.

These look absolutely wonderful and I hope to get a chance to handle one. A tariff free knife would be a nice change, tough times for us northern collectors.

Where are you located, Snodgrass!!?? Right now, the exchange rate is the killer!!

 

[Quiet]

Another tremendous entry in the Charlie C. historical era!!!

Hehe, good point, I'm on the East Coast. I've oddly gotten used to the poor exchange rate. Adding another 25% on top of that makes me start to question how much I really want them, they've got to really be a special release to justify the price in my mind.
