My my! Would you look at that fancy ringed n' dimpled bolster! And then those long pulls on not just the Master but the Pen blade as well! And, is that an 03 I spy on that gussied-up bolster?

That Pemberton pup sure sports a proud profile! I hope it serves you well for many years to come, my dear friend!

Cheers!

Real nice knives Bob.  Great picture too.

Wow great Bob, I love to see a man [or women] enjoy a knife that much. I think you have choosen a great pattern and a great brand. I know you won't be disapointed. I can't wait for your review, I have popcorn ready...LOL

Actuall, I was surprised how well the Stag Handles worked on these little guys. Sometimes,on a very small knife, the Stag Slabs have very little figure because of their small size. And sometimes,to get some figure, the slabs are left bulky like Bob refers to. But on the Pemberton's I've seen and handled,it was like the Stag Slabs were taken from little tiny deer. They had very nice figure and were well proportioned to the knife,not left all blocky and bulky. This whole run of knives were just right! A Fine job by GEC!

Bob,

The little guy is sure getting out and about.  Funny, I am watching your pics for the knives and the scenery too

Last night on KnivesLive SMKW, had a few older and awesome GEC

Bob, that's a fine GEC knife. It deserves a good ride. Enjoy!

As the Blade Show nears....who will be coming with us?

Great Eastern Cutlery Booth #255

The latest 92 Eureka Trappers in Black Buffalo Horn, Striped Buffalo Horn and Chechen Rose are on their way to Distributors now.

I would like to see the Chechen Rose

Che Chen Rosewood it is Jan! Now available at Old Hundred Collectibles

This is a very nice knife Bob.  Thanks for sharing the photo.

LOVE IT!  Wish it had a beavertail :(

Wonder who the special guest is?

Ya'll be careful, driving over there. Please take a lot of pictures.

Yep I'll second that.

Had dinner and a coke with Chris tonight :)

I understand there are two knives done special for Blade AND there is a knife making its debut.  Any guesses?  Pictures tomorrow!!!

Miss Jan, ask them what "Babylon Hill" means. Tell everyone hello for us Poboys and Gals.lol

Babylon Hill was the house of ill repute once owned by Ben Hogan and Kate LeCounte  (French Kate). It was on a hill  outside Tidioute.

Wow, I see, thanks David. It sounds like a place down in New Orleans, it was so bad, if you didn't have a knife when you got there, they'd give you one.

Babylon Hill is a summit (or hill) in Tidioute, Pennsylvania.  It forms the west border of the Allegheny National Forest.  The rest of it David shared LOL

Chris and Billy were kind enough to allow us a first look at the Blade Show knives and they are SWEET.  The 06 Pemberton is available in both interior and exterior Ivory.  This is the first time I have held the Pemberton, I like the size and in Ivory it is beautiful.  The Swing guard is making its debut available in CheChen Rose and Kingwood for the show

Those are some nice looking knives.

Thank you Alexander, these are the two that came home :)

Those are REALLY SWEET, Jan! I love the shield! Ivory??? What kind of Ivory is that?

Wow Miss Jan, I like em, I like em a lot. I seem to never see these offered for sell anymore. With Ivory, I mean.

Thanks guys! It is Elephant Ivory, one bark and one interior.  They were a special run for the Blade show and they are pretty amazing!

Bob,

are you going to carry that Molted Bone?

Not on this one Jan,I'm sticking to the Swing Guards. I do however have the 92 Eureka Trapper ordered in Tidioute Smooth Calico Bone.

SWING GUARD!! Someone say SWING GUARD?!!  Jan I am waiting for the Bone Swing Guard with bated breath....or abated breath for you English lit folks.

Clint, Call Chris this week Phone: 814-827-3411

I won't be stocking those either.

I will however be stocking the Burnt Stag Swing Guards on Monday.

193 members in this group and not one comment in 10 days? What's up with that?

They may be Bobs way of asking what can we do to get your attention and get you talking again LOL

I not only like that Blue but that smooth bone says "take me home" to me

Special Rendezvous Guest Revealed

Hey now, what's up with the Rendezvous, knife this year. We had a few guess and a few opinions but we need to find out what GEC collectors think it will be.

My guess was a large Whittler, back in May, but what the heck to I know. Ya'll, give it your best guess.

We won't take your Birthday away, if you guess and get it wrong. Miss Jan, promised.

Will, that's a fine Blue Bone knife. Are you thinking of getting one?
