Well,since GEC put us on the production schedule I guess we will go ahead with what is next.It is a new GEC pattern #29.We will call it #334 and the Texas Ranger.It will be available in 3 handle choices,Antique yellow jigged bone,smooth Appaloosa bone and Gabon Ebony.It will vary from GEC`s regular production as it will have a short spey instead of a punch.It will also have a crest shield.The last they told us was to expect production the in of July,1st of August.

Oh yes please! As both a welder and plumber. I’d love a knife with a presto lite hole. Lots and lots of old car guys would love one too. As long as it looked period correct.Old Folder wrote:I'm hoping for any pattern, as long as it has a "Prest-o-Lite" on one blade.

A "Prest-o-Lite" bladed folder would be a instant sellout and an education to the youngsters.
Perhaps it's on Roger and Ken's future plans?

Yeah, I'm gonna say that will be a hot seller. Best be on your toes for that release.FRJ wrote:Thank you, Roger and Greg.
I always like to buy Rogers offerings but now I know I want one.
That's a good looking knife and the spey is just fine with me although the punch wouldn't bother me in the least.

Re: Next
Are all of the #29 three blade knives going to be 3 spring knives ?

Re: Next
Thanks Greg. A third spring makes for a 'bigger' knife. It feels quite different in hand or in pocket from a 2 spring version.
I guess the advantage is if a spring breaks it can only disable 1 blade. And there is no need to crink 2 of the blades.
As a purist i could not call any 3 spring blade set up a "whittler".
