I certainly hope so. I'm looking forward to this one.

At this point I'm just hoping they don't wallop my wallet too badly. A short-term glut of GECs can really hit the bank account, and I want two of these styles (thankfully, the third is fairly redundant).

Time for them to start a few runs of boring frames I don't really want. :lol:

New production schedule just out from GEC, and as I hoped they are going to do a Whittler!
Thank you GEC!

Well Tim, how convenient. I was just going to hunt down and resurrect this thread and here you've already done it for me. Thanks. ::tu::

As Tim has announced, the production schedule for the #13 has been posted and here it is. Look at those handle materials. I likee. I want a Speaker Jack in Stag if it's not too blamed expensive and a Clerk in smooth bone with the same caveat. Plus I would guess that edition of the Clerk would be the one with "Office Knife" on the handle????

CK is about 8 minutes away from taking standby reservations on this pattern. Extremely limited, from what they're saying, no locks. I'm getting in as early as I can.

I'm still fighting an internal war between the speaker jack and the whittler...
