Maybe LPR stands for “leaper”?

Not just that but Fur Pelts too. I have a winter flying helmet type hat with Rabbit Fur and you can sweat in it below -30C

Let's hope the knife's Myxomatosis proof...that'll get the numerous hypochondriacs running scared

No ones gunna see the "hidden joke" ...its probably just too obscure....although I dropped a clue in a previous post.....it is maybe simply too subtle or to put another way...lame...its fine line.

Are you talking about the misspelling?

Hey all take a look at the stamp that Sharp and Fiery is putting up for a vote regarding the potential forum knife slip- I think it looks great!

 

[Frank.K]

You must include your forum name in the order!!

I misspelled my forum name in the order. But I only left out the rabbit pellet: .

Voting for a bunny stamp!

So here is the idea for a custom stamp. @Heathenhymnal designed this stamp and I’m pretty stoked about it. Here is the kicker. Custom stamps are a bit pricey, so it will have to be factored into the final price. Depending on the number of interested people for this sheath, that will...

In for one please

I'm not sure if you're making a joke, but the initial order deadline passed some time ago. AFAIK Spark will open up orders for the unclaimed knives, if there were any, at some point.

Or it may be that we're just too dense. I looked and I couldn't figure it out. At least I don't think I did. Now I forget what I thought it might be, but probably isn't.

There will be some available from Paris also!!

For those interested, Mike in the UK has, for the past few years, stopped putting up any GEC knives on his website and just advertises them on Instagram. "Last updated: 05/03/21" he says on his site, which I think is optimistic.

So, unless you are "following" him and have the inside information on drops you cannot get anything new from him. A few years ago the whole situation was a lot better, but these days are no longer. The knives sell themselves, so no major advertising etc. effort is needed.
Also, for EU buyers, you have to pay import tax if buying from the UK.

 

[Will Power]

Good point. And not all of us want to be in the Hamster Wheel of FB , Insta or others....

 

[TheJon]

Am I remembering right? These should be being mailed out soon?

There was a post saying Bill said they should ship out 11/11.

That's what I thought so late November is will be my bet then on when we'll start seeing these.

 

[Gary W. Graley]

It’s a monumental thing to build inspect serialize pack and label up this many knives at one time. So I would expect nearer the end of the month that we might start seeing sightings in the real world.
A few actual photos of the knife would be nice to make the wait a bit more manageable
