All emails to premium subscribers have been sent including re-sends to the five that bounced-back. To everyone who wants a knife, over 1/3 of them have sold in the first 30-minutes, I wouldn't wait for that second cup of coffee!

The accolades also need to go to GEC for building a 72-pattern for us with 2 full-size blades. The only 72-pattern in recent memory with more than a single blade is one with a horsepick and another with a pen blade. Our 2026 club knife to me looks like a very traditional trapper especially when dressed in the autumn gold jigged bone! ::tu::

Tom & Bryan,

Thank you both for working diligently on the annual AAPK Club knife once again. ::handshake:: I truly appreciate all you do for us knifers and for this site...the best on the net. These two knives look AWESOME! ::tu:: But the Autumn Gold Jigged Bone handle spoke to me. ::nod:: Looking forward to having this one. GEC is going above and beyond for us on this one...but then, they always do.

Autumn Gold will be headed to Starvation Plantation!
Thank you, Bryan and Tom! ::handshake::
And thanks to KLJ77 and Orvet for their part in my AAPK knife acquisitions several years ago. Dale helped during the Hurricane Michael incident, no power or internet when knives were available, he purchased one for me and Ken graciously sold me his 2021 AAPK knife when I wasn't paying attention. Ken said it was his 1st club knife and he could wait until next time to start his collection. Folks, men like these are what make AAPK such a wonderful place!

Thank you, Philip for the accolades...it was my honor to ensure you receive one of the club knives you missed out on. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you're one of the few that has every club knife since its inception. And if that is so, it means so much more that I had the privilege to help you maintain your collection. ::handshake:: ::nod::

Unfortunately Scale, I do not have the 2015 Club knife. I didn't start getting the club knives until 2021.

We are officially 75% sold-out in 6-hours, the support for this and many other programs at AAPK is incredible! If you want a club knife this year, I would act sooner rather than later because in due time they will be sold-out ::tu::
