Just kidding it’s 1095 carbon like a majority of GECs.

I’d definitely prefer 1095 on a knife like this. I’ve played around with almost all of the modern super steels and while I enjoy what they bring to the table, I am at the point where I would prefer something that touches up quick. Particularly on a multi-blade knife.

Thanks to waynorth waynorth and others, we're expecting the manufacturer to have these knives ready to go by the end of the month. Therefore, it's time to start getting preorders in.

Requirements to preorder:

Member since June 2022
Gold or higher paid subscription at time of ordering
25+ posts in this Traditional forum.
LIMIT 1 PER HOUSEHOLD. I will be making a spreadsheet with usernames and addresses to track this. Flippers may be blacklisted from future offerings.

Price per knife:
$115 postpaid in Continental USA (More in Europe, Canada etc. due to postage and taxes!)

There will be 500+ knives in total. Approximately 400+ will be done through me for CONUS members. 100+ will go to waynorth waynorth for Canadian & European customers.



Model #391222 - a new pattern. NIT, Button, and Bunny Knife etch! Front and back labels.
The knife is a 3 1/2" two-blade Jack, with Ebony covers, and a matte finish throughout.

I will post an announcement with ordering links shortly.

In the interest of doing right, I have a confession. I ordered one of these on the first night but I am not a gold member. When I saw the link it said “USA members” or something like that so I assumed the quals that had been listed long ago to reserve a knife was no longer applicable (since it was a Paypal buy scenario). When I subsequently saw my error the next morning, I sent Spark a message immediately. Not sure how this works given Paypal BUT if somehow I receive a knife (instead of a refund) and any of you that qualify but did not land one, please reach out to me and I’ll sell you the knife at same cost. Best, Mark

I can't find the ordering post!

I may have missed this if my ad-blocker hid the banner with the ordering form.

EDIT - I am so bummed - looks like I missed out, and I've been posting on the forum several times since this launched last week and missed it. Never saw a banner. If there is any left I really wish to get in on this. Please PM me?

That’s a bummer. Maybe you could message Spark. He said if they all didn’t sell, he’d open it up for everyone. Hopefully he’ll take care of you. Or maybe you could try Charlie.

Ad blocker shouldn’t have blocked the header. Is it possible you X’d the notice? Or you haven’t visited the porch since the link went live?

Thanks. I did message him after I posted. I saw that I posted in this traditional forum as far back as 10/13/22 the next day after the sale launched, but I never saw any banner. And, I've been back several times over the past 10 days so I don't know what happened.

Closing in on November already! :) Just over a week away, things should be getting close to ready I would think, hard to hear with all the leaves falling outside my house right now! MORE leaves than any other year that I can remember, so strange!

Kevin Spark Spark , Charlie waynorth waynorth and Bill at GEC...thanks so much for making the Bunny Knife happen this year. It sure seemed smooth from where I sit, but know it's a long ways from where you guys sit. You guys are special and deserve nothing but kudos and accolades, you are the bestest:)

I also want to say thanks to them for their hard work, even if they can't some up with a knife for me to buy.

I'm hoping that Spark will get back to me soon about buying one, since I seem to have had either a computer issue or a forum account problem blocking the banner, and missing out :confused:
