First off there will be a couple of SFOs that they had already contracted to do and I pretty sure they might still make club knives, but no guarantees. Of course, as always, I could be completely misinformed.

You don't know how glad I am to hear that Roger, I was hoping that GEC's announcement did not apply to everything especially the Maher&Grosh knives.

Summer is now 'mid' and soon will be 'later'. Any hints as to what pattern this knife will be ?
Is there a reserve system or will it be a scramble to try to score one once they have been released ?
I'm hoping for ebony or mammoth or giraffe handles.
