Bill Howard, he was the designer at Queen for many a year and a good many of their designs were his babies.  Bill will tell you he is not a people person but he will also be standing at the door when someone comes for a tour :)
It was also at that front door that I met Gary Kifer, this contest sponsor!

Thank you, Jan!  I suspected there was a connection between the two knives, but didn't realize it was that direct.  With some quick research, I found the names Ken Daniels & Bill Howard as founders of GEC -- which one was the designer of the Mountain Man?  While I'm not in the market for one of these knives, I'm sure I will be again at some point (though if I ever again find the #42 in Indian Paintbrush Bone, I won't pass it up this time).  And I always love knowing more about the knives in my collection!

Well and there you go DLKG!  Designed by the man that made the Mountain man to begin with, heading up his new company and letting the universe know DLKG is needing this knife!

Congratulations Steven!

I don't have any GECs in my collection yet - but the 2017 model 748117 is one of their models I like most
