I cant say that I have ever done that but I can see how easily it could happen Ron

I would simply make me cry

Craig!

Thanks, mate! They are all so purdy! Do you have a personal favorite? And of course I have to ask; are they all users?

In lieu of a lanyard tube/hole I am really attracted to knives with a bail on them. Like your Conductors, for instance. However, I have had a couple of instances where the bail got in the path of my blade snapping closed and the ensuing chips to those edges were enough to bring tears to my eyes. Granted, I wasn't paying attention on those occasions when it did happen. But it was enough to leave me shell shocked and fearful to own any more knives that have bails that could possibly end up being guillotined at the expense of a nice edge.

Allowing for the fact that I am probably just a dork (that's no doubt a given), have you or anyone else had that happen? Accidentally let the blade snap right on top of a bail and ruin an edge?

And thanks again, Craig, for posting this excellent pic of all those GEC's! Totally awesome, my friend!

I like it too. It's a nice redish brown.
