Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

This might be old news to some but I thought it prudent to share with the Collectors Group.

As some of you may know there was a decision made to change the Main blade of the new #89 Melon Tester. This was due to some production issues with fitting the Spear blade, so the decision was made to change the main blade to a Wharncliff.

After reading about the running change to the Main blade I was interested enough to call in and get some actual Totals of the M.T. with the Spear blade - for those that might be interested;

HANDLE - # Serialized - # No Serial
2nd Cut Stag - 50 - 34
Smooth Goldenrod - 50 - 37
Jigged Goldenrod - 50 - 69
Pumpkin Patch - 32 - 3

So if you are lucky enough to have one of the above please show it off. This will certainly increase the collectability of this pattern.

Hey Vince, Thanks for the numbers up date. I have had a lot of interest in the Smooth Goldenrod this week. This color seems to have it's own unique style, not every one is the same.

Thanks for the numbers, Vince. I am fortunate enough to have a melon tester and an executive whittler. On the back of the melon tester main blade is marked 3 P's in a circle, which I read somewhere stands for Pattern Production Premier. I find these patterns so intriguing they have been laying out in the open for a week so I can look at them every day. They have to be my favorite GEC knives so far.
