Re: WHALERS
I asked them at the factory if they would be making more whalers...I think his name was Chris ,he said they are a very hard blade to grind. Thats why they haven't been making them. I love them.So far I have collected12 Elephants , Whalers and Sunfishes ,mostly GEC's. I'd trade all 28 mint Case knives I have for 6 mint Whalers. When I learn how to take good pics I'll post some pics here.
Re: WHALERS
Love the Whalers! They have become my favorite pattern.
Lets see those whalers!

Re: WHALERS
The main blade is thick and the small clip blade is about half the thickness of the main blade.

I also love the whalers! Wish I had been collecting back in the day, man there were some really cool ones produced!

Re: WHALERS
Here are mine. I like that the Desert Ironwood one has a burled look. I think it is kind of unique.

Re: WHALERS

Everything's better with a Barlow
Re: WHALERS
ya, I started to rationalize ... well, if I went to the rendezvous, by the time I paid for plane fair, hotel, means to get around, food and build that into the cost of the knife I'm really not paying that.....wait, I can't get this right now, thats $450 for a knife... ya almost got me...lol.
Re: WHALERS
Wow, that looks great Rusty! Where did you get that done?
Re: WHALERS
http://www.engravingextraordinare.com/ I was looking for a while to see about getting scroll work done on a knife and could not decide. I ended up getting two whalers when they first came out and thought OK let's try it. I was more than pleased with the end result.

Re: WHALERS
I ended up with an extra Desert Ironwood #46 Whaler. I mailed it off and 4 months later, I got this gem back. Mammoth Ivory with superb fluted bolsters. Here is a few pictures:
