A B&S came in Micarta with everything as it should be. Sweet knife and all but not really me if anyone around here is interested and didn't get one, here's your chance. Just looking to trade or something for one of the Trappers. PM me if you're interested and enjoy all the beauties posted. Sweet ones.

I just got a PM notice from you and then when I tried to open the message and read it, a message said I'm not authorized to read this. Go figure. I've had PMs before, no problem. Every once in a while I get this. Keep trying and one of us will get through.

If so, you'll need to delete some of the old messages in order for the new ones to become available for viewing.............of course this is all based on my own speculation and may not help at all.

My four new M&G knives arrived today. I want a 50% refund. Two of the knives had fingerprints on the bolsters, one had a smudge on the shield, and the fourth one is ok but not as pretty as I expected. Do you need my mailing address ?

I will forward your request to the complaint department.


I have not heard back.

Bill Howard is a genius at his knife making skills and his vision of what he wants to accomplish. True, they have made most of the M&G's, but not all. And the new trapper for M&G has never been made in a standard production run. That falls squarely on two more visionaries, Roger and Ken. They took an old pattern and made it to perfection. They recreated the past and brought it to life with Bill's ingenuity. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and this Trapper ticks all my boxes. I doubt you will see this configuration ever again. I've bought roughly 300 or so GEC knives, and this falls in the top three I have owned as far what is perfect for me. All I meant is, it will take one hell of a knife to better this one. For me that is. This knife is a step above to me. In both function and looks. Is this my Holy Grail? Good chance. Thanks to Bill, Roger and Ken.
