Seven and countin'
Count me in.
Bulldog Brand was started by Charlie Dorton and the rights were sold to Jim Parker by Charlie. Charlie and George Smith then bought Bluegrass Cutlery and the rights to John Primble knives logo.
I have been waiting for a new Moose. I like the idea of a wood handle also, put me down for for sure. I wish it was that easy, we may all just have to wait for the Moose to get its GEC turn in production.
Jean-Francois thanks for your interest and your willingness to come aboard on this. I don't know if GEC can make the "Giant" Moose of my dreams yet, I havn't spoken to Chris yet, butI'll ask. In the mean time, let's see how much interest we can generate here for an SFO Northfield Moose, the 4 1/8" equal end cigar frame, and with you here that makes us six. I'll talk to Chris soon.
1 or 2...
Hey Jim,I thoght Bulldog Brand Knives was started by Jim Parker and Named Bulldog after his Staffordshire Terrier?
YES? YES? YES!!!
OK for a (giant?) moose - rather with wood scales.
Thanks Jim, that makes five...
Gang...let's not be so cavalier with throwing names around since you better believe the people that bring us these brands have been in the industry for quite awhile....indeed the gentleman's name is Charlie Dorton along with Robert Roark whom developed the Krack-A-Jack Brand in 2010 and had Great Eastern produce three Cotton Samplers in the #73 pattern the first year as well as a single knife in the #85 pattern in 2011.
Charlie Dorton has been involved in many knife brands and anyone who collects Bulldog Brand knives would recognize him as the originator of the company.
Besides that side trip...Luca I'd be in for one.......
