I just finished uploading the recent load of 72 Burnt Stag and Antique Green Jigged bone knives. As I was shooting the pictures, it became obvious the lanyard tubes were quite a bit smaller in appearance (at least) than some of the other knives I’ve looked at. I checked some other 2013’s and went back…

Finishing your Leather Braided Lanyard
Had a great question asking me how I recommended finishing the ends of a leather lanyard. There’s a number of ways to do it and I’ll share one more you may not have considered. The first and probably most obvious is the traditional ‘knot’. Still pretty hard to beat for simplicity. The biggest problem is that…
Braided Leather Lanyard Cord listed today, more to come
Well, I asked and a number of you responded. I sold out about 1/2 of the cord I’d ordered last nite, fielded numerous questions by email and phone this morning. All before the stuff even went in the store. As a result, I placed an another order and am bring in a lot more colors…
Lanyard Leather Available!!!
I’ve talked with a couple of you in the past asking if I could source some sort of leather lanyard material for your knives, etc. Well, I finally got around to finding a good source with a lot of color options ranging from black to pink. I’m starting out modestly to see what the interest level…
More 72’s are here and waiting on the stag
The 72’s continue to dribble in. Today I got the Spear and Wharncliffe Autumn Gold Tidioutes as well as the Cocobolo Northfields. I’m hoping we’ll see the Burnt stag later this week. And the Northfield Burnt Stags bring up a point worth mentioning. Bill had asked if we’d see any serialized Burn Stags. I don’t…

Store updates on shipping charges
I started going through the store products today and you’ll see a minor change the next time you place an order. All I got changed today were the GEC products, but I’ll be working on the rest of the items next week. This is for the benefit of my overseas customers. Previously, when an overseas…
New Fallkniven & Spyderco additions to the “Specials” category
I started putting up a couple new items in the “Specials” category in the store today. Having always been a fan of the Fallkniven knives as well as the Spyderco’s, I felt it was time to add a few more to the inventory. The folding Fallkniven’s are definitely high end folders. The laminated steel in their blades…
Two thumbs up for Queens latest releases!!
Okay, I heard all sorts of positive things about the upcoming Schatt & Morgan Keystone series Scout Knife. The folks that got to see it at Blade were seemingly impressed and I’ll admit the pictures were ‘nice’. But until you get it in hand you never know. Well, today I got one ‘in hand’. All…
Some things are just hard to improve….
The big influx of 73’s that have come through in the last few days got me to thinking about my own experience with that pattern. The #23 and the #73 are after all, the two knives that got GEC going. Every time we see another generation of them produced there’s always a revival of interest in…
