Well, today is finally getting better!! Had a long and bad work & travel day, but while sitting outside with my granddaughter about 10 minutes ago I got the Knivesshipfree Little rattler email. Tried to order with my phone for 5 minutes and kept getting pocket slip errors, no matter which button I checked, so I ran inside and logged in with my PC thinking it was way too late, BUT, I nabbed a Little Rattler Tidioute Red Choral, which was my first choice. For less than $70 delivered.
That feels great after missing the CK early reserve and thinking these little beauties would all go in seconds like in the last few runs. That thing looks so sharp, I cannot wait to see it in person.

GP Knives just dropped a batch of GEC#19Red Coral Canvas knives. And you won't like the price. (edited 10:30am) JSR Sports and More sold out in a half hour. GP Knives had their drop 24 hours ago. And they still have them in stock.

I have a Red Coral waiting for me in my mailbox. I should have some pics to post in about 90 minutes.

It's small but I like it. Light pull, good snap, and a pinchable blade.
My only gripe is that when closed the tip rests just about even with the top of the handle. I can't snag my finger on it yet but it won't take more that one or two re-profiles to the edge.
Neat little knife though. I'm glad I got one.

I had one waiting for me today as well. Definitely small, but I think I'll like it. Fit and finish is quite good, it's nice and snappy, 4-ish pull. I love the color on the micarta scales. I'm going to carry it for a few days to see how I like it.

I find any knife under 3" to be too small. I have slightly smaller than average hands but a sub 3" knife just does not feel 'right'. Custom knife makers rarely if ever make a sub 3" knife because they are hard to sell. GEC would have done better if they had made this pattern 3 1/4".
With folding knives a small increase in size gives a large difference in feel.

Is there really that much of a market for small (< 3") knives?

I am shocked ,myself . The Little Rattler #19 is the perfect 5th pocket knife. 2020 is the perfect time for GEC to release the #19s. The knife collectors are in a GEC buying frenzy right now.1967redrider wrote: ↑Fri Nov 20, 2020 2:12 pm Is there really that much of a market for small (< 3") knives?
