What type of knife would you like GEC to make next?

A few of us have been clamoring about knifes that we would like to see. Johnny Two Shoes would like a peanut and a traditional whittler. I would like a scout/utility knife and a traditional whittler. What would you folks like GEC to make next? I'd like one of those spiral cut Red Buffalo Horn Whalers too while we are wishing for things (but that is an existing pattern). I was looking at some of the camp/scout/utility knives that I already have by Camillus, Ulster, Utica, Western (see my photos if interested) and it would seem to me that GEC could make one like these fairly easily (yeah it's easy for me to say) out of their current #53/#54 frame. It might be hard to incorporate the corkscrew that I wanted in our "Gone Camping" discussion in this frame but those folks at GEC work wonders! I have an older Boker Camp knife (see my pics) that has all of the bells and whistles but it doesn't really match any existing patterns and is a beast of it's own.

So what do you all think? I'd be interested in suggestions of new knives and also the scales that you'd like to see on them.

I think a Peanut would make a great new pattern for them.

A bone or stag camp knife would get my vote, but as I am new to the GEC addiction any of them would tickle me.

I am on a new kick, I started collecting Clasp pattern knives, so I would love to see GEC make a run of these big knives. They have never made them before, I think they would do an excellent job, making them. Everyone is a bit selfish, on which pattern they want next. Heck, I don't blame them a bit, a Peanut, sounds like a great pattern to me Craig. As long as they make it after the Clasp Pattern...lol

Yea, they better make the Peanut first because they might run out of steel if they make the Clasp, first. lol A bunch of ya'll have been waiting on a Peanut pattern a while, so I guess, I'll have to go with ya'll on this one.

Good point! All the steel they'll need for the Clasp we'll have to send in our old razor blades! LOL!
