The BladeForums 2022 Traditional Knife Thread

I got my #39 Old Sheffield Jack after the Bunny Knife and it came with the typical wax paper. The recent run of #36 Toenail Clippers also came in bubble wrap. Not sure that there is any reason but I don't think the wax paper is going away - just might be a case by case thing.
Or tube by tube lol

Mine came with some free pubes from the "packaging process" too!

Thank you to everyone who made this possible!!

Firstly they're not pubes ...they're errrmm ebony shavings.
Secondly..don't talk too loud or everyone will want some.😁

They could be pubes after Kevin promised to rub his balls on each and every knife.
 
Mine showed up as "Out for Delivery" this morning. We've got a busy day ahead so, I went to town to the Post Office and picked it up instead of waiting for it to be delivered at the mail box late this afternoon. Pretty nice knife. It's light for a 2-blade which makes for a frequent carry. #362 1962 is the year I graduated from high school. For you math nuts, that's a year more than it should have been but I liked the 9th grade so much I did it twice. 🤷‍♂️

Question - Does GEC now send their knives out in bubble wrap baggies? Just thought I'd ask.
OMG I was born a couple of months before you graduated high school!

I feel so young now 😆
 
The last of the Bunny Knife preorders are getting ready to head out the door today. After they have all been shipped, I'll be taking orders on the 3 dozen or so I have left and that'll be all she wrote.

I will probably open up the orders for them on this Friday, at 9am or so or whenever I meander to a PC. Again, make sure your Paypal address is CORRECT in your account and be ready to go; when these are gone that's it. Since this is no longer a preorder, it'll be open to anyone who has been a BladeForums member for at least 1 year and has 50 posts in the Traditional Forum.

Thanks for all your support!
I personally think you did a great job getting over 400 knives out yourself in just a few short weeks (minus the Canadian and European knives). I always feel bad when people are complaining about not getting tracking numbers or having delayed shipping, and hope you know they are just having fun with you and not at you.

BIG thanks to all involved!
Whomever gets #333 or #369 let me know if you want to trade otherwise I'm perfectly happy as is.
KEEP IT! It's John 3:16 "for God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."

fixed it

I fixed it, but from memory I kept changing eternal life and everlasting life, and don't know why I added the word begotten. Sigh... My memory is slipping, and was too lazy to look it up for the right wording.

because that's what the King Jimmy version said... only begotten son. edit: and other versions did, as well. The Greek had that term in it, as well.

Doc took the words right out of my mouth lol. I cannot imagine how much work was involved in getting that many knives shipped, especially around the holidays. I'm super excited to get my tracking info today, and look forward to getting my bunny in hand. Everyone involved in this year's BF knife deserves are round of applause, and possibly a stiff drink😂. Thank you guys for being willing to tackle this again.
 
#412 here. Very nice made little knife...if only she were buffed like she should be!
Besides the matte finish perfect really, and finally a GEC knife with all the nail nicks on the correct side, well done! Now some vinegar to compliment the etch. I normally like etched blades, but NO.
