I need a GEC Peanut.

Sooner or later they have to get sick of me yammering for one and make it!

After oiling up my Club knife, I noticed the main has no snap at all. is this an issue anyone else is having?

Peanut

As I come across Christmas specials at our dealers I will put them here.  Let us know if you find any please

TSA...short lived but good deal:

New Christmas Special Starting 12/7/12

Those look good!

I love my mailman :)  he always brings the best stuff

Is that "Frontier Bone"? I like that.

Its primitive :)  Thanks Craig

OH! That's the Primitive Bone! Dummy me! At first glance it looked like the Frontier Bone. I should have known You would have gotten the Primitive Bone! LOL!

Beautiful knife Jan!  I wish my mailman would bring me one.

I must not be getting my mail person a big enough gift for Xmas?

You scored, Jan! Merry Ho Ho Ho to you!

Jan....

I love your Mailman too and I live 1,500 miles away.  Great looking knife.

Clint

Thanks Guys :)

Yep, looks like you're right Ivars. I think I'll go sit in the corner and cry for a while....and plot my next move.

I wonder if that is based on the White Owl frame? I would say that would make it a Junior Cattle Knife....according to Levine.

Was real happy to get my hands on one of these!  Very nice. The blade opens very smoothly with a half stop, beautiful color, fit and finish and feels real nice in the hand. One of my favorites for sure.

Nice looking single blade Barlow!

That's a real nice looking Barlow, fersure! From the picture it almost looks long enough to be a Daddy Barlow. Paul, what's the closed length on that beauty?

The closed length is 3.45 inches.  The weight of this single blade is about 2.125 oz.

That is indeed a beauty.  Such a classic build for a classic pattern 

Okay, enough about Barlows....we need a GEC Peanut.

Enough with the Peanut! How about a Canoe?

That's one good looking Canoe. There must be a little Indian girl somewhere that needs one for Chirstmas.lol

LOL! Looks good Bob!

Sorry...I have nuts on the brain.

It does look good!

Craig is still nuts about nuts though :)

A Canoe pattern reminds me of a Moose patern. I carried a Canoe pattern a while, to help make a bunch of scared Mom's feel better. They thought all the young boys would want a knife with a less pointed blade. It made the Moms happy and I found out a Canoe is a very usefull pattern. It seems everyone has a favorite Pattern.

Had a chance to talk with Bill today and he says the canoe and the boys knives are being received VERY well!

Most under rated handle material right now?  Coffeehouse, looks almost like an old celluloid but does not photo very well

Jan I agree it is a nice material.....  IMG_0975.JPG 

I like that Coffeehouse too. If it looks better in person, so much the better!

I give!  Any ideas on what the CKW means?

Jan....Cumberland Knife Works ...one of the first Great Eastern distributors...had the the rams horn and ebony Sfo's made for them

goodness I had totally forgotten that.  We used to buy a lot of knives from him

I use to buy knives from him, also. He told me once he was a preacher, here in Louisiana, I think that's how the story goes. Well anyway, he's a real nice guy. Just like all of the GEC distributors.

We bought from him but not GEC.  He used to sell Case alot

I think I mostly, bought Queen knives from him. He's a nice old guy.

When I go there I don't see GEC listed.

Craig....

He hasn't been a GEC Distributor for over three years now..every so often he does post a few from the first 2-3 years...

For those of us that have been privileged to extend our collections with Bruce Piehl. He has shared with us today that he lost his brother this week.  Please keep his family in your thoughts

My thoughts and prayers go out to Bruce and those respective family members who are now mourning Russell's sudden and tragic death. So sad to lose such a valuable life in this way.

My Prayers are with the Piehl Family.....

Condolences to Bruce and his family.

I had a good talk with Bill Howard not too long ago and one of things we discussed is acrylics.  The new coffee house gets us closer to the look of an old celluloid.  I got my first one today in the 57 pattern and I have to tell you this is one sweet handle material and the pattern just makes me want another one :)

My prayers are with Bruce's family.

I really like that Jan! The handles look very old timey....which I like.  I hope they use it on the Pemberton. 

It is so awesome in person, it really does have an old timey look to it.  Thanks  and I hope they use it on the Pemberton also
