2014 iKC knife...TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE
The time has come to start the discussion on the 2014 iKC knife.
I would again like to shoot for August/Sept delivery date. Something to remember while we talk about this is that a short run of only 50 or so knives means we need to tie in with a maker that is already running a knife and tweak that one to make it our own. The reason for this is most SFO's require a minimum order of 250 or more. Also I would like to keep it less than $125.00 delivered to you. I have some eyes checking out whats available at a factory or two but always love to hear your ideas. Remember, this is YOUR knife
Here is a pic of the official annual knives we have done so far

Alexander,
I have indeed spoken with AG about what knives they will customize. he sent me a link to them last year but that does not appear to be active any longer

That is too bad I do like his knives and he seems despite age to be very active or maybe Goldie is as I get emails all the time and they do keep their web site up.
I have faith in many production knife companies. I try to support as many as I can. I think whatever is the best quality at the best price for our members is a win win for everyone.

If we go with AG, I hope he still has the pattern for the shield that he used on the Jumbo. That was nice.

I like the Scout patern for this year. Multi blade seems to be a common thread and the Daniels Family seems a solid bet.
No chance of Mastodon bark I guess?
BTW a bottle opener would be so memorable on a club knife!

I'd like to see a Scout, or Harness Jack, or Barlow. Wood handles, but bone or stag also work. Clip point and pen are my favorites, and spear point for third place. 3" to 3.5" closed. Little extras are always great. Prefer a good carbon steel but stainless is fine. Pocket knives in this house are meant to be used, and if they develop marks or signs of that use then that is just character. Kind of like my craggy old self.

This is incorrect. Some of A.G.'s knives are indeed made in China. If they re they will say so on the knife. If A.G. says something is made in the US then it's made in the US. He never decieves anyone about that.

AG is very descriptive and open on his offerings. Click on any knife and he will tell you where it is made. I can also tell you any knife made in China is inspected before it goes out to the public. Not a spot inspection, every knife. I have great respect for how AG handled the move of some of his product offshore.
With all that being said I dont think Elbin was saying anything against AG or his product, I think he was simply stating he would prefer US made and that is where our cost factor/low run comes into play
