Yes they have Jay, I remember that too. I remember in late 2006 when they were taking forever to release their first knives and everyone was speculating on whether or not they would be able to compete or even stay afloat for very long. I remember going to shows right after they had come out and no collectors wanted to talk about them or even have their knives. They definitely had to earn their place in the market. This is the US, that's the way it should be. If you make a great product, people want it and you make fortune! AMERICA!!! ::nod::

I remember when back in 06' I was 12 years old. :shock:
I was of course an immature brat and could only have Case, so when GEC came out and I heard about them I wouldn't have anything to do with them. I didn't want their rustic looking knives and I didn't care to hear about them, good or bad. :roll:

And here I am today. ::handshake::
