New JBF Champlin knife

[galvanic1882]

Hi everyone, I posted this ad on the Great Eastern topic page but figured I might as well post it here too.

I believe that most of you know that we have been hoping that GEC would make more knives for us but that has not happened. So it was a pleasant surprise when I received this note from Bill Howard in an email.

"Mike,
We recently ran some #92 pattern knives.
While doing so I cleaned out the #92 designated cabinet in assembly to
put together any leftover inventory of previous #92 runs.
I had quite a few parts for the JBF Champlin knife we previously made
for you and I put them together and finished them also.
Here is what I made in JBF.
15pcs. 2bld with East India Rosewood handles. "THESE ARE THE KNIVES I HAVE FOR SALE"
1pc. 1bld. Spear East India Rosewood handle.
1pc. 2bld. Original Rosewood handle provided by you.
All with correct shield but no blade engraving.
Would you like them?

After reading this of course we bought them and then had JBF put on the main blade. It's a deep engraving as you can see from the pictures.

The knife will come in one of the boxes we used for the original Eureka plus a wiping cloth, trade card the one that we included with the short run of Electric Cutlery knives, a certificate stating that the knife is 1 of only 15, plus 2 of the original handles that I found at the old Cattaraugus factory. We are including the handles just in case people want to replace the handles on the knife. Right now I only have 4 knives left so if you are interested please get back to me ASAP.

I would prefer an email at [email protected], for some reason I am not getting an alert when a PM is sent through the site.

Thanks Mike
