What is the latest word on the Eureka's? I just checked the GEC website. After being mum about the Jacks for 4 or 5 days, they are announcing Tidioute Eurekas now with what looks like jigged bone and rosewood handles. GEC must own the tooling and can do with it whatever they want. But what about the Champlins? Are they getting close?

Here is the latest from GEC this morning. The blade openers have been shipped on Friday so I will have them tomorrow. The knives should be shipped to me today and I should have them Wed. I have all day Friday scheduled to get them mailed out. Sorry for the longer wait on them, thanks Mike

Let me tell you that Donna and I were up last night getting all the knives ready to ship and most are gone this morning and I have a few to mail this afternoon. All of the knives that have been paid for are in the mail. Waiting payment on a few and then they will go out. I can't wait to see pictures posted and hear comments. I will tell you that I almost gave all the money back and kept them ::ds:: ::ds:: !!!!

@#&%! I missed this pre-order, and I'm a big fan of the Eureka pattern ::dang::. The Tidiouts are nice enough, but I miss the bells and whistles.

If anyone has a spare in wood or decent stag, please look me up. ::pray::
