Firm pull, about 7.5 on both blades! Great fit and (matte) finish!
My first thought was it's a little 'plain' looking for a GEC, but it has such good feel to it, it's raring to go for work or recreation! Rabbits, beware; this knife could could promote a change in diet for many BFers!! Wonder if it will polish itself in my pocket??

Please contact me only if you are a Canadian member!! The USA knives, and European knives will be there soon!!
Spark is your man in America!!

Nice sir, appreciate the photos and to me, it looks like a solid no nonsense kind of knife, no frills just a good working folder. Stiff springs provide a little extra security during cutting, a good thing in my opinion.
And the brush finish of the bolsters will be easier to maintain, just a little rub with some scotchbrite and you're good to go!

Regarding serial numbers. When orders are closed I'm going to be putting together a spreadsheet with names, usernames, addresses and such for my use. At that time I will start taking requests for serial numbers NOT BEFORE.

I will also start issuing refunds for shipping for those first hundred who got hit at that time, it'll be easier for me to tackle it then. I have NOT FORGOTTEN about that.

As I said before, a Saint or crazy - but I'll put in a request now and later for 53, my current age or 54 which I will turn later this year.

This is later (sorry if this is not the correct time) - 53, my current age or 54 which I will turn this week. # 54 preferred, please. And thank you

Thanks for the pics, Charlie, and thanks to everybody who made this happen.

Thanks to Waynorth, Spark, and Meako .................. and of course Great Eastern Cutlery !

I just might put that Bunny Pin on my Carhartt Barn Coat pocket. All of my other pins are in tubes, but, not the knives.

Holy macaroni and spam slices! You guys put together a fantastic BF traditional this year! The tube art and write up are top notch too!

Heaps of appreciation to all those that made this possible again this year!

Is it just my eyes or does the picture of the knife on the tube show a Reverse Curve of the handle ????
Actual pictures provided by Charlie are great . Very nice to finally get to see one .

Optical illusion, the curve of the tube and the curved banner under gives the reverse curve look.

Wow. It looks amazing. To go through all of it for no profit just blows my mind. Thanks waynorth Spark meako , GEC and whoever else is involved. A treasure for sure.

This knife looks like an instant user.

I've been trying to ignore this whole thread (out of sight, out of mind kind of thing) but now that they are actually here, I gotta say, this type of jack knife is my favorite... with the secondary in front of the primary, both pulls on the same side....
GREAT job Charlie, and Spark, and everyone else involved in this....

 

[Rufus1949]

Thank you Charlie,Meako and Spark and unknown involved in creating this classic.
I can't imagine the time and effort you put into this endeavor.
It will be an honor to carry the rabbit.

 

[Scholefield123]

Last time I was this excited I was waiting for Santa to come .
Big thank you to everyone who made this happen. All your hard work is very much appreciated

 

[AZCoyote]

I usually keep the BF knives as safe queens but these turned out so amazing its going to be hard not to throw it in the pocket. Looks like the perfect carry knife.

 

[gruntmedik]

I've used all my previous Forum knives, and this one will be no different. Can't wait! I'm hoping for #325

Crossing my fingers #315

If for some reason I end up with #315, I'll be contacting you for an exchange immediately. That would be the right thing to do!

Ditto. That would be too perfect.

Hard to beat brushed ebony, clip/pen, and bare end. Looks very nice.

 

[hornetguy]

Perhaps a thread should be created for those members that want a certain number. Numbers don't matter to me, so I'd be willing to swap mine to someone that wanted whatever number I end up with? Would that upset the wonderful folks that put all this together? I certainly would not want to throw a wrench into those works... just random thoughts..
