Enjoying a Tuna.

Hey guys, as you all know, I have the best Mom in the world.

Today, she celebrated my graduation early and what could be a better gift than a brand new Tuna Valley?

When Ryan and Ken Daniels left GEC I was a bit worried about it, I was worried that GEC might loose their personality and that the knife world would miss a great family involved in knives. Shortly after they left, word came out that the Daniels family was not leaving knives, but that they were moving on to try new things. They purchased the rights to Tuna Valley and have been producing wonderful knives from this brand. They have decided to put their faith in good American factories like Great Easter Cutlery and, as things continue to unfold, other brands are being contacted about producing knives for them. No matter who is making the actual knife at the factory we can rest ashore that it's going to be a quality, American piece of cutlery thanks to the Daniels family.

The stag on this knife is perfect and the best I have in my collection.

If you got one, please post a pic.

I would love to see the other Tuna knives out there.

Johnny,

Congrats on both the Graduation and the new knife. She is a good mom, with a good son and she is proud!

Thanks Jan, she really is great and a true blessing to have in my life. This knife symbolizes so much than just being a knife. It's impeccable quality makes it even more of a joy.

Nice stag. Your mom sure does know how to pick stag. Did you give here some pointers?

Hey Eddie, no, I never gave her any pointers, she knows how to pick a knife better than I can.

She is a knife nut, but she doesn't fully embrace it. My collection has been blessed by her secret love of cutlery. LOL

Johnny Twotunashoes,

Nice knives my friend! Your Mom is quite a special lady!!! You are going to have to pamper her on Mother's Day! With graduation gifts like that I would be going back for my bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees. This might be a dumb question but will the Tuna's see pocket time or be collectibles? Either way enjoy them!

She certainly knows her way around a knife. And I juust assume mothers day would be wonderful. Tell ya'll a secret...her boys adore her. But are you going to carry them?

Your right Johnny, the quality is second to none. These knives caught my attention right off the bat. It is great to see a company that can easily adjust to make the product they want. Using companies that have high quality controls and produce incredible products. Looking forward to more incredible things from the Daniels Family Knives.

Man, Johnny, you are one lucky dude to have a mom that loves you THAT much! That is such a killer looking Tuna! Those engraved bolsters really punctuate the beauty of that knife. Congratulations on your graduation -- enjoy that new knife!
