All About Pocket Knives

Those are really nice boys knives Roger - and so cool that even did a chain for it ..

This forum has been quiet for 2 months now. Was very nice jigging on the bone 15, amongst the best they're done so far.

I'm about ready for another one.............. What ya got Roger ?

I'm also on the "ready" list Phil.
Any pattern hints Roger?

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.

Please-Please-Please do not call that little square hole a "Skate Key"

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.

Looking forward to this knife. Thanks Roger.

Searched a couple places, still don't know what a #29 is.

It's a 3 blade 3 backspring dogleg whittler.

That sounds like its going to be another set of stunning knives Roger, like the spey instead of the punch, I will be down for all 3.

Thanks John!

Thanks for the update Roger.
What a gorgeous selection.
Christmas in August!

I agree "eveled"
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?

Putting the Horse before the Cart, but here is my "Next" wish list for Roger & Ken.
Stag would be gorgeous

This is the style I’d prefer.

Here you go Joe.

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.

Yeah, I'm gonna say that will be a hot seller. Best be on your toes for that release.

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

I don't know the answer to that Roland. Rogers comment was the only thing I've heard about it.

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".
