Today's pre-sale has exceed all of our expectations and as of right now we have 16 mahogany jigged bone knives and 20 autumn gold jigged bone knives remaining to be sold. After those are sold I will start a waiting list for premium subscribers who missed out on the pre-sale but would still like a knife or two. GEC's production process normally yields around 5%-10% in overruns and we will purchase those if there is interest. ::tu::

Thank you to everyone that participated in today's pre-sale and for the very positive feedback posted in this forum and through emails and private messages. Your continued support of the mission here at AAPK makes this project a very light lift. That's all for tonight, tomorrow is another day! Peace.

Right now we have 10 Autumn Gold and 9 Mahogany knives remaining which is less than 10% of our allocation of 200 knives. I sent a second notice to premium subscribers last night that bought a 2025 knife but hadn't yet purchased a 2026 knife and woke up about a dozen subscribers.

If you are not a premium subscriber and would like a 2026 knife, there is still time to purchase a subscription here https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/ca ... scriptions for as little as $20 and get in on the action. Just like the Cadbury Egg, when they're gone........they're gone! ::handshake::

Thank you Tom! This is my 3rd year here and bought one every year. I also have 1 or 2 from the old Canal Street years. I will see if I can dig them up and post pics.

Thanks Tom, for another well executed event. Eagle Scouts know how to plan, lead, and execute that plan! ::nod:: ::tu::

Thank you Ken...it's so true, between working for Ross Perot fresh out of college and my BSA training, the only choice was to plan, lead and execute...the BSA is still one of the premier youth leadership training programs in the world despite the struggles they've had this past decade. ::tu::
