I had a dream.

I dreamt of Elk Stag and Stainless, I dreamt of adventures to be made with this new friend. A beautiful sunrise on a placid lake, a chilled morning by a swift running stream, and many a morning spent in the woods, searching for every variety of game to be had. I dreamt of no rust, but lots of trust, with a lock so tight, I can cut with all my might. Yes, this new friend will be a welcome companion in my home, and in my pocket. I will see you soon #72, 440-c, AMERICAN ELK STAG.

Sincerely,

Your trusted hunting, fishing, hiking, biking, working, and relaxing friend,

Johnny T

Well, I've reserved a #72 Elk Stag GEC, guaranteeing that there will be adventures had between us. I look forward to it's actual burst onto the scene, but I'm patient. ;)

P.S.

I'm thinking about buying one of the #72s with the red wine bone for EDC purposes.

What do you think?

I think any of the new #72 Mini-Lockbacks would be an excellent choice.

I find they are not only a very useful EDC knife, but the handle choices this time around make them especially attractive as well, plus the choice of two practical blade styles. There is a lot to like.

Dave, I'm really pumped about having one spoken for. I was afraid that with the ever growing popularity of the new #72s in 440-c, I might miss out on the chance to snag one. But, now I have it in my mind to grab two, and that Wine bone is really calling to me. Not sure yet, we'll see.

I can't wait to hear how you like your #72, it's gonna be a blast comparing notes.

I'll have pics to show right away, I hope to have a great report of GECs excellent quality as well. There is a chance that I was too late on reserving the Elk, but I'm hopeful everything will get sorted out.

P.S.

I have that stupid Red Red wine song, stuck in my head.

Red, red wine
stay close to me
Dont let me be alone
It's tearin apart

Johnny,

I just dont know if that is best suited for the red or for the possibility of missing the elk. I certainly hope you get one

I've been blessed with good company, someone is backing me up so I have a good feeling I'll be able to wrangle the Elk.

I do hope so at least, thats a dream knife for sure.

P.S.

Jan, you have a great voice. ;)
