Well Craig, I saw you liked carbon steel knives, well you're not gonna find any better than a GEC. They use 1095 carbon steel, it's one of the best. Miss Jan, those questions sound great but lets see what others have to say.

Hi guys! I haven't bought a GEC knife yet. I think I'm afraid to. LOL!

Comment by Jan Carter on July 30, 2012 at 17:16

Well I see the two obvious

Do you have a favorite style of knife for your own use? 

Do you have a favorite style of knife you prefer to make?  

Do you prefer an existing pattern or creating a new one?

 

Anyone else have ideas before I send this out?  I have to get Bill's permission for Chris to ask the associates but we will certainly ask!

Wow, thats great, Miss Jan. Maybe Clint, could come up with the opropreate[spelling?] questions to ask or other good members. I'm just the general idea guy...lol. I'm sure alot of our collectors would like to know what they have to say.

I LOVE IT!!!

So here is what I think will get us an answer.  I will send an email to Ms. Chris and ask her to post it in the break room with a pen.  Lets come up with 3 or 4 distinct questions to ask shall we?

I purpose one of them to be:

Do you have a favorite style of knife for your own use? 

so add to the questions and I will get us some answers

That is true, I never thought of that. Those of us that love GEC knives need to know what our makers favorites are. Great idea, Clint. We'll see what the Queen [Miss Jan] has to say about our idea.lol

Robert....

This is a very good question.  I would like to round this out to; What knife pattern do the craftsmen like to make and do they like to craft the old patterns or a brand new pattern never been done before?

I'd love to know what kind of knives do the GEC knife makers like. We all know they like GEC but I mean do they like "vintage knives, fixed blades or a certain pattern, maybe an old brand". I think it would be interesting for everyone to see what's their favorite knives.

We were excited to see his family also Robert.  Just plain good folks!!!

This was an exciting show.  We got to see a few folks we had met before but also had the opportunity to meet more iKC members and put faces and memories to the profiles and conversations.  And spending time with the folks at the factory is always a joy and a blessing
